    Sir Anthony Hopkins Sparks James Bond Conversation

    Imagine if you will a world in which Oscar winner Sir Anthony Hopkins went a very different route with his film career. What if- and just hear us out on this- the Welsh actor had become the iconic 00 agent, James Bond.

    Sure, this is an odd question to come up NOW, but, after seeing Hopkins’ most recent Twitter post, it’s all we can think about. While visiting with former 007 Pierce Brosnan, Hopkins joked that he was being “championed” to join the iconic franchise.

    Considering we know following the release of “No Time To Die” current 007 Daniel Craig is done with the role, a question about who’s next isn’t out of the ordinary.


    Top fans picks currently have “Outlander” star Sam Heughan, “Man of Steel” star Henry Cavill, “Bridgerton” star Regé-Jean Page, and “Peaky Binders” star Cillian Murphy at the top of the list.

    We’re kind of hoping the franchise instead keeps Lashana Lynch (“Captain Marvel“) in her 007 post for more than one movie though.

    “No Time To Die” is currently set to hit theaters on October 8th, 2021.
