There is little doubt that Michael B. Jordan is one of the most talented actors in Hollywood today. But could he possibly be the next James Bond? No Time to Die singer Billie Eilish believes that the Black Panther star has what it takes to take over as 007 after Daniel Craig.
Eilish is currently helping promote the new James Bond movie where she sings the titular theme. While talking to Capital FM, the Bad Guy singer was asked who she thought would take on the role of the British spy once Craig retires. Not surprisingly, Eilish's choice isn't one of the usual candidates in the race to become the next 007.
"Honestly, Michael B. Jordan would kill that shit. I think he'd kill it," she said.
First of all, I was not expecting that response. It's a refreshingly unique idea that nobody saw coming. However, it seems like Jordan might be a little younger than the expected age range for the spy. Still, we wouldn't be surprised if people agree with Eilish on this one.
No Time to Die will be the last film featuring Craig as Bond. The film is directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga and also stars Léa Seydoux, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, Rory Kinnear, Jeffrey Wright, Christoph Waltz, and Ralph Fiennes. New cast members include Rami Malek, Lashana Lynch, Dali Benssalah, David Dencik, Billy Magnussen, and Ana de Armas.
Do you think Michael B. Jordan has what it takes to be the new James Bond? Sound off in the comments below. In the meantime, No Time to Die will premiere on April 10.
