“Very very cool and I would like to follow in his footsteps and be the next Bond,” he said in an interview to a foreign news agency. “[Don’t] want to be a villain. Gotta be Bond.”

There is no doubt in acting skills and physical attraction of the Dwayne Johnson, but it is very unlikely for him to be the next 007 agent as he is a US national. 

“No Time To Die” was the last movie by Daniel Craig as 007 and still there are no reports who will replace him as a lead role.

Daniel Craig started the James Bond 007 role from Casino Royal, and in total Craig delivered five James Bond movies.

  1. Casino Royal 2006
  2. Quantum of Solace 2008
  3. Skyfall 2012
  4. Spectre 2015
  5. No Time To Die 2021

However, there are rumors regarding who will be the next James Bond and several actors’ names have appeared including Tom Hardy, Henry Cavill and Idris Elba. Meanwhile, there are also speculations that there may be a female Bond as well.

So far, the producers have not decided the final name yet and we all are waiting that who will be the next James Bond.
