Another week, another big star getting asked about playing England's greatest spy in a suit and often seen sipping a Martini (how are those made again?). Honestly, though, if we had to pick who the next James Bond would be, Glen Powell wouldn't make the cut, and he's fine with that.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the star of Twisters and the upcoming sci-fi action movie, The Running Man, was asked what he thought about his name being considered for the next 007, alongside many others. His response seemed like a realistic one. “I’m Texan. A Texan should not play James Bond,” Powell stated. “My family and I joke around, I can play Jimmy Bond, but I should not be playing James Bond. Get an authentic Brit for that job. That’s who belongs in that tuxedo.”
