Edgar Wright Has an Idea for the Next James Bond

Edgar Wright’s James Bond?

Speaking on the Happy Sad Confused podcast (via Games Radar) Edgar Wright said — like many others — he’d absolutely direct the next James Bond film… if anyone asked him. “I think Daniel Craig has so made an indelible stamp on that franchise that I think you have to go in a slightly different direction… Because I don’t think there’s anything to be gained by continuing in the same vein, and I would certainly think that it would be interesting to try and – I mean, I do have a take, which ever they ask me, I’ll definitely pitch it to them. [Laughs] So I’m not going to say it on the podcast. But I do think that, when I sometimes see some of the names being bandied around, I can’t quite see it, in terms of to me they feel like Daniel Craig 2.” The only question is: would it be more Baby Driver or Hot Fuzz? We’re hoping for the latter.
