James Bond fans criticize new 007 agent candidate

British actor Nicholas Holt has faced criticism from fans of Bond after new rumors about his possible approval for the role of James Bond. The reason for the discussion was the move of the 36-year-old artist from the United States to the UK with his family, which he spoke about in a recent podcast. Holt now lives in London, near Pinewood Studios, where films about the famous 007 are traditionally made.

On social media, many fans of the franchise have questioned whether the X-Men and Superman star fits the British spy image. Some users said that the actor lacks the charisma characteristic of Bond, while others suggested considering him for the role of a villain. At the same time, some viewers supported Holt’s candidacy, noting his acting range and ability to play completely different characters.

According to foreign media reports, Holt has already auditioned for the role of 007 along with Robert Pattinson, Callum Turner, Jack Lawden and Josh O’Connor. The next part will be directed by Denis Villeneuve, known for the films Dune and Blade Runner 2049, and the script will be prepared by the creator of Peaky Blinders Stephen Knight. Despite numerous rumors, Amazon studio MGM has not yet announced who will replace Daniel Craig in the new film.
