Valerie Wu Intern Fans of the iconic British secret agent James Bond will have to wait a while to see who the next 007 will be, according to franchise producer Barbara Broccoli. In a recent interview with The Guardian, Broccoli shared that executives “haven’t even begun” modernizing the franchise, adding that there is a “big road ahead” before the James Bond character is “reinvented for the next chapter.” Broccoli praised what Daniel Craig, who retired from the role of James Bond in 2021 after the release of “No Time to Die,” brought to the character.
