Tom Cruise tipped to be the next James Bond
Who will succeed Daniel Craig to play “007”? At the last news the MGM studios were looking for a new face for the famous secret agent. Since August 2021 names have been circulating and the American Tom Cruise would apparently be the most likely candidate to take up the torch.
There comes a point in every man's life where he says to himself “oh if I were James Bond”. So when Daniel Craig suggests that he could give up the role, the round of suitors is organized, from London to Los Angeles, and speculation is rife.
Will Tom Cruise be the 7th James Bond?
Critically acclaimed after the success of Jack Reacher: Never Go Back (2016), Edge of Tomorrow (2014) or Oblivion (2013), Cruise is one of the most prominent, and above all, the most profitable actors. of the moment (or "bankable" as the Americans say).
The question that arises today: what now?
Three reasons why Tom Cruise would make a good James Bond
1-Cruise is a superb actor who has all the qualities necessary to bring a contemporary aspect to the role: virile, elegant and above all a great lover of Martini;
2-Daniel Craig was the first James Bond to get naked. Female fans of Tom Cruise - and there have been many since he was named the sexiest actor in the world - would expect no less;
3-But above all an American James Bond would necessarily bring additional relief to the character.
