In the latest installment of the Venom franchise, Venom: The Last Dance, director Kelly Marcel made a bold fashion choice for Tom Hardy's character. Marcel revealed that she dressed Hardy in a tuxedo for a very specific reason, adding an air of sophistication and charm to his portrayal of Eddie Brock.
As we bid farewell to Daniel Craig's iconic portrayal of James Bond in No Time to Die, fans have been buzzing with speculation about who will take on the role next. And all eyes seem to be on Tom Hardy, who is no stranger to action-packed films. His role as the unlikely superhero in the Marvel franchise has only heightened the anticipation for his potential casting as Bond.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Marcel confessed that she was tired of seeing Eddie Brock in his usual casual attire, which often included sweaty tops and Hawaiian shirts. So, she decided to give a subtle nod to the Bond rumors surrounding Hardy by dressing him in a sharp suit. "There's always been these rumors about [Tom] playing James Bond," Marcel revealed. "So I may have been showing what Tom Hardy's James Bond might look like."
The scene in which Hardy dons his tuxedo takes place in Las Vegas and gives viewers a glimpse into a different side of his character. This will be the third Venom movie, and fans are eagerly anticipating its release.
Marcel has also been rumored to be on the shortlist of directors being considered for the next Bond film, alongside names like Edward Berger, David Michod, Yann Demange, and Bart Layton. "That's an extraordinary list to be on. I was flabbergasted," Marcel shared. "There's never been a female Bond director, and of course, when you see something like that, it's just incredibly humbling. So I'm grateful to be mentioned alongside any of those brilliant, brilliant directors."
Hardy stars alongside Michelle Williams in the Venom franchise, but he's not the only actor being rumored for the iconic role of Bond. Other names being thrown into the mix include Theo James, Callum Turner, Regé-Jean Page, and Leo Woodhall. However, Aaron Taylor-Johnson is still considered the favorite, although a source recently denied his involvement when the speculation reached a fever pitch.
Aside from the Bond rumors, there's also been talk of a potential on-screen pairing between a young power couple. Irish actress Saoirse Ronan, 30, has expressed her desire to play a Bond villain, going up against her husband Jack Lowden, who has also been mentioned as a potential Bond candidate. "He would be a fabulous Bond for me to play against," Ronan gushed.
While nothing has been confirmed by the creators, fans are eagerly anticipating the release of the next Bond film and the announcement of who will fill the iconic role.
