A former James Bond has given his blessing to Aaron Taylor-Johnson as the next 007, following rumors that the Bullet Train and Kick-Ass star will be the next actor to don the famous tuxedo. George Lazenby, who played the iconic spy in 1969’s On Her Majesty's Secret Service, believes that Taylor-Johnson has the right qualities to do the role justice. Lazenby praised Taylor-Johnson's ability to handle stunts and charm the audience with his tuxedo-clad persona.
While recent rumors suggest that Taylor-Johnson has been offered the role of James Bond, Lazenby remains cautious, noting that securing the role involves a rigorous audition process. The speculation stems from a report by The Sun, claiming that Taylor-Johnson is the top choice for the role and a formal offer is pending his acceptance.
