It's anyone's guess whether or not Daniel Craig will continue to play James Bond after his next 007 movie (slated for a 2020 release). In fact, the film's (now ex) director Danny Boyle wanted to kill off the dashing Secret Service agent, but the idea was shut down by Craig and the film's producer, Barbara Broccoli. Boyle quit the project and "True Detective" director Cary Fukunaga was subsequently tapped for the job.
Grim endings aside, Bond fans have been buzzing for a few years about who will replace Craig as the smooth-talking, martini-sipping secret agent. Idris Elba, Tom Hiddleston, Tom Hardy and Richard Madden are among the actors rumored to be considered for the role.
