Who will inherit 007's licence to thrill? 'The world is not enough' in the hunt for James Bond
More than six decades after his first appearance, the search for Daniel Craig's successor has begun.
The hunt for the next James Bond actor is a revealing debate about the future of one of cinema's most enduring franchises. The character has been portrayed by Sean Connery, Roger Moore and Daniel Craig, each bringing a different interpretation to the role.
Emerald Maxwell explores the key questions facing producers in this search for a new 007.
From the cold-blooded sexual magnetism of Sean Connery to the more tongue-in-cheek take of Roger Moore, to Daniel Craig's gritty realism, there's really a James Bond for everyone.
The next actor will inherit the 'licence to thrill' and must decide whether to remain faithful to the character's traditional identity or reinvent himself to reflect changing attitudes towards gender, diversity and contemporary heroism.
