Bond 26 Has The Biggest Challenge Recasting 007 The Franchise Has Ever Faced After Daniel Craig's Historic Run

James Bond 26 is confirmed to be on the way, but its recasting of 007 will be especially challenging after Daniel Craig's five-movie run. Created by Ian Fleming, James Bond has now been played by seven actors in total (if one includes David Niven), with Craig following the likes of Sean Connery, Roger Moore, and Pierce Brosnan, among others. After decades of the franchise operating under the control of the Broccoli family and Eon Productions, Amazon acquired total control over Bond earlier this year, and getting another 007 movie off the ground will be a top priority.
