George Lazenby, famously known as the Bond succeeding Sean Connery, has expressed his opinion on the search for the next James Bond, suggesting that Liam Hemsworth should be the frontrunner for the iconic role.
During an interview with TMZ, Lazenby emphasized that Liam possesses the necessary qualities and qualifications to embody the MI-6 agent, citing his acting prowess and ability to handle the media spotlight with adeptness.
Lazenby, who made history as the youngest James Bond at 29 years old, believes that 32-year-old Liam is well-suited for the role and can continue to portray the character for the next decade while maintaining his youthful appearance.
Furthermore, Lazenby highlighted Liam’s connection to Australia, a British Commonwealth nation, emphasizing the historical trend of James Bond actors being associated with the British crown.
Concluding his remarks, Lazenby stressed that the next Bond must embody qualities such as audacity, self-assuredness, and ambition to effectively take on the coveted role.
