Zack Snyder Wants to do a Bond Film
Hot on the heels of Zack Snyder saying “Of Course” he’d make a Fortnite movie, he's just pitched another potential film: Young Bond.
The Justice League director, who’s currently promoting new Netflix movie Rebel Moon, tells The Atlantic that a young James Bond film could work.
"It'd be cool to see, like, 20-year-old James Bond. The humble roots that he comes from. Whatever trauma of youth that makes you be able to be James Bond. There has to be something there."
With most recent Bond actor Daniel Craig now 55, it makes sense to go younger for the next 007 film. But a student-age Bond might be turning the clock back slightly too far.
After all, Craig was 38 when he debuted as Bond in 2006’s Casino Royale, which many consider to be as fresh and original a Bond film as any in the series.
In any event, Synder likely won’t be getting any jobs off the back of his Rebel Moon review scores alone. It's currently 24% on Rotten Tomatoes.
