Pierce Brosnan Hints at Major James Bond Return at the Age of 72
Pierce Brosnan, 72, excludes active James Bond role but is open to franchise projects as he embraces playing older characters, saying he enjoys acting within the iconic image.
- Pierce Brosnan told GQ he ruled out returning as the active 007 but is open to franchise-related work, remarks published as he is honoured at the GQ Men Of The Year event on November 18 in London.
- He explained his approach by saying two years of back-to-back work let him savour acting and `It allows me to enjoy the process of acting and of playing within the image, playing within the symbol, playing within the icon of that person that you've created.`
- Beyond Bond, Brosnan's résumé includes four Bond films from 1995 to 2002 and recent antagonist roles, while pursuing a second Thursday Murder Club film and filming MobLand season two.
- Brosnan's phrasing prompted fans and commentators to suggest he could return in non-agent or villain roles, as he said `Sometimes you entertain it and sometimes you just move on`.
- With Denis Villeneuve steering the franchise, Deadline reported Villeneuve wants `a man, a Brit, and an unknown`, while Brosnan has been applauded as one of the best Bonds.
