White House Shares Trump-Themed 007 Image Amid James Bond Casting Search

The post came after Amazon MGM Studios said the search for the next James Bond is underway, with casting director Nina Gold leading the process.

  • On Saturday, the White House shared a social media image of President Donald Trump reimagined as the spy 007, featuring the campaign slogan "Make America Great Again" emblazoned over the iconic gun-barrel silhouette.
  • Amazon MGM Studios announced Thursday that casting for the next James Bond is underway, seeking a successor to Daniel Craig for the Ian Fleming-created franchise.
  • Casting director Nina Gold, known for The Crown and Game of Thrones, is leading the selection process and told Deadline that the chosen actor must "ooze sex appeal" for a multi-film commitment.
  • While the White House has issued no formal explanation for the post, critics interpreted the meme as campaign-era performance art, contrasting sharply with the studio's ongoing professional casting process.
