Bond role offered to Jewish actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson – British media reports
Jewish actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson has been offered the role of James Bond in the spy movie franchise, according to British media reports.
There have been numerous reports in the past linking various actors to the role of the fictional agent.
“Bond is Aaron’s job, should he wish to accept it. The formal offer is on the table and they are waiting to hear back,” a source tells The Sun.
“As far as Eon [Productions] is concerned, Aaron is going to sign his contract in the coming days and they can start preparing for the big announcement,” the source says of the Avengers star.
In 2015, Taylor-Johnson told The Guardian he was pleased when someone told him he looked like a fashionable Hasidic Jew.
“That was nice because I have really curly hair and also I’m Jewish,” he said.
