Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Aaron Taylor-Johnson's possible casting as the next leading man of the James Bond franchise would mean the end of a casting streak that's been in place since 1969. While the trend seems largely incidental, the choice of Taylor-Johnson to follow Daniel Craig as 007 could arguably make a statement that goes far beyond the former's immense acting talents.
Related Every James Bond Movie In Chronological Order James Bond has brought fans action and espionage for nearly six decades with 24 films. Here is a list of all the 007 films in chronological order. Aaron Taylor-Johnson Would Be The First James Bond Actor Younger Than The Previous Two Actors The James Bond casting trend dates back to 1969 Close The first recasting of James Bond came when Sean Connery quit after 1967's You Only Live Twice.
Why Sean Connery's James Bond Return Doesn't Count Diamonds Are Forever wasn't Connery's James Bond debut The interesting casting trend is arguably disrupted by Sean Connery's brief return to the James Bond franchise after being absent for one film. Although he quit after You Only Live Twice, On Her Majesty's Secret Service performed so poorly that Connery was coaxed back to reassert the franchise's high standards.
If Connery's updated age for his second spell as James Bond is accounted for in the younger-then-older pattern, then the trend itself wouldn't exist. As Roger More was 45 in Live and Let Die, that would mean two consecutively older actors playing James Bond after George Lazenby's sole appearance as the famous spy. However, the pattern only accounts for an actor's age during their first movie.
