Luke Evans, who is often mentioned as a candidate for the next Bond, praised the changes in the “007” series.

Luke Evans is pleased with the changes in James Bond.

Six actors have played the titular James Bond in the British national film series “007” since 1962, and now that Daniel Craig, the sixth Bond and star of the series for 15 years, has graduated from the role with “007: No Time to Die” in 2021, the seventh Bond is set to become 007. The battle to predict who will be the seventh Bond has been raging for the past few years.

Many actors have been mentioned, but Welsh actor Luke Evans, known for his roles in “Beauty and the Beast” and the “Wild Speed” series, is one of the leading candidates. In a recent interview with the Independent, he expressed his admiration for the changes in the “007” series.

We’re no longer in the Roger Moore era, where Bond sleeps with five women in each film. Bond is not that character anymore.

The “007” series has long been criticized for various problems, such as portraying female characters as Bond’s property, sexualizing them, and making them too young for Bond, as the term “Bond girl” suggests. It has been criticized for many years. Improving on this has been a longstanding issue, but Danielle’s Bond is more sincere with Madeleine, played by Léa Seydoux, than in “Spectre,” and the position and portrayal of other female characters has changed, which has been appreciated.

In a series that has enjoyed great popularity worldwide for more than half a century, there are naturally a great many female fans and a large younger audience. Given this, Luke is probably right on target when he says, “I think people are more interested in the action and the story.

In the past, Luke has said in an interview with The Guardian, “I don’t know about the enthusiasm of audiences these days. Do audiences really care that much about what James Bond is doing in the bedroom?” he noted.

And given that Luke is gay, if he were to play Bond, would he want a male actor in the other role?　He told Independent that he has played so many different characters that his sexuality doesn’t affect the role, adding, “I’ve played all types and no one seems to mind that. And Bond has changed,” he commented with implication.

Rumors that the producers intend to use a younger actor as the seventh Bond are believed to be strong, and it seems unlikely that Luke, now 43, will be the next Bond, but at least Daniel’s Bond has proven that the “007” series can change with the times, and the next Bond will be an actor who can bring a new style to the series. However, at least Daniel’s Bond has proven that the “007” series can change with the times.
