Nick Vivarelli International Correspondent Nicola Maccanico, a former Warner Bros. and Sky Italia senior exec, has been spearheading the radical overhaul of Rome’s Cinecittà Studios since June 2021, when the government-owned facilities secured a multi-million dollar loan provided by the European Union’s post-pandemic recovery fund to upgrade and expand the iconic facilities. Under Maccanico’s watch, the studios – which now boast 20 state-of-the-art soundstages and one of Europe’s largest LED walls – have become a magnet for Hollywood productions, such as Netflix’s period soap “The Decameron” and Roland Emmerich’s gladiator series “Those About to Die,” which is still currently shooting.

Idris Elba has been named as the UK’s top choice to play the next James Bond, according to a new poll.Conducted by William Hill Vegas, the nationwide survey polled 3,500 Bond fans, asking them to name their ideal pick to take over from Daniel Craig, whose tenure as 007 came to an end with No Time To Die.Elba, who has previously been linked with the role, emerged at the very top of the list with 17.5 percent of the public’s vote.His fellow long-term frontrunner Tom Hardy came just behind on 16.6 percent, narrowly ahead of Henry Cavill on 16.5 percent.However, those wishing to see any of these three actors take up the mantle of 007 are likely to be disappointed, given that franchise producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson have previously stated that the next actor will need to be in their early 30s, and be able to commit to the role for at least 10 year.One of the current favourites to become the next Bond is 33-year-old Aaron Taylor-Johnson, who recently refused to rule out the casting.Elsewhere in William Hill Vegas’ survey, fans were also asked to vote for their all-time favourite Bond movie.Skyfall, starring Daniel Craig, topped the list with 17.5 percent of the vote, far ahead of the second-placed Goldfinger (8.5 percent), starring the late Sean Connery.

How many films have they made – 25 or something? I think they have to keep renewing it if they want to keep going!” he said.Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Snowfall‘s Damson Idris, Bridgerton star Regé-Jean Page, Happy Valley star James Norton and Henry Cavil are among the bookies favourites to replace Craig.But previously Whishaw cited Luke Evans and Bridgerton star Jonathan Bailey as “ideal” candidates for the part and said that he would like a gay actor to play the next 007.“Of course, I would like to see that,” he told Attitude in 2021.
