Miles Teller’s grandmother Leona Flowers has let everybody know that she wants her grandson to be the next James Bond.
Miles Teller’s Grandmother Wants Him To Be The New 007-‘Wouldn’t He Be Great’
The lookout for a new 007 has already begun following Daniel Craig’s departure from the franchise after having concluded his last Bond movie ‘No Time To Die.’ And with a decision not having been made as to his replacement, there are several names in the running.
Some of those have reportedly included Henry Cavill, as well as Tom Hardy. And in keeping with those names, Miles’ grandma did not hide the fact that she wanted him to take the role. In a post to her followers on Twitter, she said: “They’re looking for an actor to replace Daniel Craig for future 007 movies.
“I think my grandson, Miles Teller, has proven that he has everything they’re looking for- talent, looks, strength,worldwide appeal & oh, so cool. He can be that guy!! Wouldn’t he be great?”
This begs the question: how realistic is this? Well, Miles has recently been praised for his performance in the new Top Gun: Maverick movie. His character of Lieutenant Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw has been well-received and the movie broke box office records in the process.
Although it is not exactly clear if Miles would be up for this, the fans on social media did not shy away from agreeing with Leona in part. A certain proportion of the fanbase rallied behind the idea that Miles could do the job, especially since he had a mixture of looks, talent and age on his side.
Meanwhile, others felt that Miles could not do the part justice since Bond is a British character. One person wrote: “Miles would do such a good job omg,” while another person stated: “Miles is one of the young actors with very strong personality on screen.
“He is remarkable. But he is not British and that’s hard to cover.” Time will tell who ends up taking that coveted role. So there you have it folks. What did you think about this? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
