Lauren Sanchez: The Secret Bond Boss?
5 Feb
Summary
- Rumors suggest Lauren Sanchez influences James Bond casting.
- Amazon acquired MGM Studios in 2022, sparking speculation.
- Insiders deny Sanchez's involvement in Bond selection process.
Whispers in Hollywood suggest Lauren Sanchez, wife of Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos, might be influencing the casting of the next James Bond. This speculation arose after Amazon acquired MGM Studios in 2022. Reports claimed Sanchez held sway over the selection process, with one journalist alleging she had a specific vision for the character.
However, these rumors have been strongly denied by sources close to the situation. Insiders revealed to the Daily Mail that Sanchez is not involved in choosing the next James Bond. While Sanchez has not been linked to any Amazon MGM Studios projects, she previously had aspirations in filmmaking, having shelved a self-funded psychological thriller.
The intense focus on the next Bond follows Daniel Craig's departure after five films. The franchise, originally launched in 1962, will see new producers take the helm. Several actors have been suggested as potential replacements for Craig, including Tom Cruise, James McAvoy, and Henry Cavill.
