Taylor-Johnson was thought to be a top pick to become the next 007 after Daniel Craig. The Sun said on March 18 that he got offered the role and might sign a contract soon. But people close to Taylor-Johnson say otherwise. They said he hasn’t been chosen to play Bond.

Taylor-Johnson refused to discuss his potential future role, «I can only really talk about the things I’m going to show and tell. I don’t feel like I need to have a future drawn out for me. I feel like: whatever’s drawn out for me, I can do better.»

Pierce Brosnan, who played James Bond in the past, thinks Aaron Taylor-Johnson could do a great job as the next 007. The actor shared his thoughts on Taylor-Johnson possibly taking over the iconic role during an interview, «I think the man has the chops and the talent and the charisma to play Bond, very much so.»

He recalled working with Taylor-Johnson on the film The Greatest in 2009, which was produced by Brosnan’s company. He praised Taylor-Johnson’s performance in the film, saying, «One of the first movies we made, one of the earliest movies, was The Greatest. And he was the greatest in it. So, yes, I read the news about his possibilities of being a Bond, so I would definitely tip my hat to the fellow.»
