Aaron Taylor-Johnson has responded to rumours that he may be playing the next James Bond.The actor, 33, has been a favourite for the iconic role since January 2023 when it was reported that he had impressed producer Barbara Broccoli in a screen test.Last month, it was reported that EON Production had offered him the job, and that they were awaiting his response.Taylor-Johnson has not directly confirmed or denied the rumours, and at an event earlier this week, even swerved a question about the 007 gig.Speaking to the Associated Press at The Fall Guy premiere in London on Monday (April 22), the Tenet star was asked whether he was “sick of being asked about Bond” by an interviewer.After a pause, Taylor-Johnson replied: “You sick of asking the question?”, to which the reporter responded: “I want to know, so no.”The Kick-Ass star then laughed and ended the conversation with: “Alright, have a good one,” before walking away.This follows a Rolling Stone interview the star did earlier this year in which he gave a vague response to his upcoming work: “I can only really talk about the things I’m going to show and tell. So, The Fall Guy, Nosferatu, Kraven The Hunter.”He also swerved the topic in an interview with Esquire, saying: “As I’ve already told you, I have to go by the beat of my own drum.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Henry Cavill nodded to his tumultuous history with post-credits scenes during a recent screening of his new Guy Ritchie-directed movie “The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare.” As reported by Insider, Cavill made some introductory remarks before the film and references his other Ritchie films, including his leading turn in the 2015 spy film “The Man from U.N.C.L.E” and his appearance “in a post-credits scene” for the director’s 2017 box office disappointment “King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.” “Turns out, I don’t have much luck with post-credit scenes,” Cavill then wisecracked to much audience laughter. “So, I may give up on those.” Cavill is likely referring to how “King Arthur” did not get a sequel because it flopped at the box, but also a debacle ensued years later when he showed up as Superman in the post-credits scene of the 2022 comic book tentpole “Black Adam,” headlined by Dwayne Johnson. The moment heralded the return of his iteration of the Man of Steel and set up a future in the DC Universe where he’d go toe-to-toe with Johnson’s Black Adam.
