Zack Sharf Pierce Brosnan kicked off his “Black Adam” press tour with a new profile in GQ UK, and it appears the actor is already bracing for an onslaught of James Bond questions this press cycle. Daniel Craig finished his 007 tenure with “No Time to Die,” which means all eyes are on franchise producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson to see which actor will be the next Bond.

It’s about a reinvention, and ‘Where are we taking it?
