47-year-old Irish actor Cillian Murphy, star of Oppenheimer, may become the main character of the legendary Bond movie. In recent years, the popularity of films about agent “007” has fallen, and the new Bond has every chance to win back the love of the audience, says WomanEL.

According to the British tabloid The Sun, British actor Daniel Craig is no longer playing the role of superspy James Bond after 15 years and five films. But his place is still vacant. After the insane success of Oppenheimer, Bond producer Barbara Broccoli turned her attention to Murphy.
Cillian is now the darling of Hollywood, and this will be the best role. This is a way to take the Bond franchise to a new level with the help of an actor at the very top of his career, the publication notes.
Barbara Broccoli will make the final decision and she has plenty of time. Filming of the new film about the adventures of James Bond is planned no earlier than 2025.
Earlier, Cillian Murphy appeared in striking images for the British magazine GQ.
