The actor, who played the iconic character in four movies between 1995 and 2002, spoke candidly on the topic in a recent interview, from its major change in creative control to who should be the next Bond.
Speaking with The Telegraph in an interview published March 9, Brosnan touched on the franchise’s acquisition by Amazon. He “lamented” the takeover, but praised long-standing producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson for handing over creative control to the brand.
Brosnan said he hopes Amazon “handles the work and the character with dignity and imagination and respect,” and then dropped a bombshell opinion on the character’s casting.
This comes on the heels of Timothy Dalton, who played Bond in two movies between 1987 and 1989, telling The Telegraph in February that the acquisition “is sad.”
“It is one of the few wonderful stories we’ve got in film that is British. The leading character is British. We can call it our own,” he said, emphatically sharing that he feels the next actor to play Bond should be a Brit. “Because that’s where it was born, that’s what the stories are. Definitely. One hundred percent,” the 1923 star told the outlet.
