British actor Lucien Laviscount, best known for Netflix’s romantic comedy series Emily in Paris, has been claimed to be among the possible actors to play James Bond 007 in the next films in the series. The Daily Mail tabloid writes about it, citing an anonymous source.
According to the publication’s source, Laviscount “meets all the requirements”: “He’s very talented as an actor, supremely handsome, and has gained a lot of new fans in the past 18 months after joining ‘Emily in Paris’.
Also, a Daily Mail source claims that Bond producers have already said how easy it is to imagine an actor in a 007 tuxedo, and how well-suited Laviscount looks for the role. Barbara Broccoli, who directed the series, is said to be “very passionate” about the “Emily in Paris” star.
Previously Daredevil actor Charlie Cox says he doesn’t want to play James Bond.
