Amazon bosses have promised a \u2018fresh, exotic new chapter\u2019 for James Bond<\/a> after gaining control of the franchise.<\/p>\n

Fans have been not-so-patiently waiting for any 007 updates<\/a> after Daniel Craig<\/a> departed the role in 2021, following the release of No Time To Die<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, it was revealed that longtime producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson stepped back<\/a>, with the studio taking over creative control and Amy Pascal and David Heyman jumping on board to produce the next flick.<\/p>\n

During an appearance at CinemaCon in Las Vegas<\/a>, Amazon MGM executives said production is officially underway in London after months of waiting \u2013 but there is no news yet on who the next super spy will be<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Taking to the stage at Ceasar\u2019s Palace, Courtenay Valenti and Sue Kroll said, via Variety<\/a>: \u2018We are committed to honoring the legacy of this iconic character while bringing a fresh, exotic new chapter to audiences around the world alongside Amy and David.<\/p>\n

\u2018They\u2019re both in London getting started and couldn\u2019t be here tonight, but we wanted to thank them for what we know to make an incredible partnership.\u2019<\/p>\n

A string of famous faces have found themselves in the frame to replace Daniel, who left the franchise four years ago after five films under his belt.<\/p>\n

His debut came in Casino Royale in 2006, and he went on to lead the way in Quantum of Solace, Skyfall, Spectre and No Time To Die.<\/p>\n

Taron Egerton and Aaron Taylor-Johnson have been heavily tipped<\/a> to step into his shoes, while Theo James, Idris Elba, Jack Lowden and Harris Dickinson have also been linked.<\/p>\n

However, Daniel Mays recently shed some light on the future of the franchise, suggesting we could get James Bond\u2019s \u2018origin\u2019 story<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Popping up on the We\u2019re Not Getting Any Younger podcast, the Line of Duty star claimed: \u2018Bond is a big deal right, that going to Amazon \u2026 I heard a rumor they\u2019re going to cast someone very young and go sort of back to the origins.<\/p>\n

\u2018They\u2019re going to 60s, you\u2019re going to have all the retro cars and that stuff \u2013 and start again. I think that would be cool.\u2019<\/p>\n

Producers Amy and David have yet to reveal their plans for the iconic spy, but shared a joint statement on their appointment, which read: \u2018James Bond is one of the most iconic characters in the history of cinema.<\/p>\n

\u2018We are humbled to follow in the footsteps of Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson who made so many extraordinary films and honored and excited to keep the spirit of Bond very much alive as he embarks on his next adventure.\u2019<\/p>\n
