Next James Bond ‘tough decision’ – Barbara Broccoli shares secrets of 007 casting process | Films | Entertainment

Broccoli admitted that first of all she and the other producers at EON Productions need to sit down and work out exactly what the reboot will be like before then finding the right star to play the next Bond.

Speaking with The Times, she said of the historically collaborative effort: “Are [the next set of 007 movies] going to be more humorous or less humorous, more gritty or not gritty? And then, when we’ve done that, we have to figure out the actor to play it. So, no, it’s not just ‘Oh, who looks good in a suit?’ We have to figure this out on our own.”

Amid all the speculation at the bookies, Wilson added: “And we don’t need any more suggestions.”
