Christopher Nolan is opening up about rumors that point to him taking over the James Bond film franchise and directing the next chapter of the franchise.
In a new interview, the Oppenheimer director finally addresses if there’s any truth to the talk he’ll helm the action movie.
“No. Sadly no truth to those rumors, but I’m very thrilled the strike is over and we can all get back to work,” Nolan said in an interview with the Associated Press.
The next James Bond film has no timetable set for release but the last actor to play the 007 agent was Daniel Craig. Craig took over the role in 2006 after Pierce Brosnan’s stint in the iconic role. Casino Royale was the first film with Craig in the lead role with Quantum of Solace being released in 2008. Craig would reprise the Bond role in 2012 with Skyfall, in 2015 in Spectre and finally in 2021’s No Time To Die.
Martin Campbell, Marc Forster, Sam Mendes and Cary Joji Fukunaga directed the Craig-era films. The next director will have the big task of finding a new actor to play James Bond who could potentially star in another set of films for the next decade.
