circling for years that the British actor, 49, could possibly be the next James Bond.And as it turns out, his name has finally been thrown in as “part of the conversation” to take over the role of the infamous spy from Daniel Craig.Craig, 53, has played the MI6 womanizer since 2006’s “Casino Royale” until the last installment, “No Time to Die” (2021).Producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G.
