George Clooney has thrown his weight behind Callum Turner as the next James Bond, praising the British actor's talent and career choices. Turner, known for his roles in Fantastic Beasts and Apple TV+'s Masters of the Air, has been a top contender for the iconic spy role for years.
Clooney, who directed Turner in the 2023 sports drama The Boys in the Boat, believes Turner would be a great fit for the role, citing his height, charm, and British heritage. He also praised Turner's ability to choose complex and interesting projects, saying he hasn't just gone for 'easy paychecks.'
However, Turner himself remains tight-lipped about the rumors, saying he knows as much as the public does and won't comment on his interest in the role. Despite the buzz, Turner is currently promoting his new rom-com One Night Only and has recently married pop star Dua Lipa.
