Oppenheimer star Cillian Murphy may become the new James Bond. What is known
Irish actor Cillian Murphy seems to be in the running for the role of the next James Bond, which was previously Daniel Craig. In Hollywood, it is rumored that the creators of the franchise are so impressed with his success and performance in Oppenheimer that they are ready to offer him to become a 007 agent.
According to The Sun, the film community agrees that Murphy's role in the latest film even surpasses his success in Peaky Blinders which made the actor a world-famous figure. It is the movie about the creator of the deadly weapon that can bring the star an Oscar, which will increase his chances of starring in the new James Bond.
With this choice of the main character, the Bond filmmakers seem to be trying to warm up the audience's attention, as the popularity of 007 stories has fallen after the last films.
Cillian Murphy could be the next James Bond
"Cillian is at the height of his popularity in Hollywood right now, and this would be his starring role. It's a way to elevate the Bond franchise with an actor who is at the top of his game," an insider told the newspaper.
Producer Barbara Broccoli, according to him, has been closely watching Cillian Murphy for the past year, wondering if he could successfully embody James Bond.
It is worth noting that earlier there were rumors in the film community about the desire of Oppenheimer director Christopher Nolan to make one of the next Bond films. He denied these assumptions, but if they were not unfounded, Murphy's choice for the lead role would seem quite logical.

We would like to remind you that the shooting of the next movie will start no earlier than 2025, so the authors of the film still have time to choose.
