During a conversation with Mark Wright on his Heart evening show, Tom Holland opened up about playing Spiderman and agent OO7.

Replying to his question, Tom Holland said, “Oh mate. That would actually be a dream come true.” He continued further, “I’ve got to remind myself that I’m lucky enough as it is, Spider-Man is an absolute delight and privilege to play, but you know, should they want to do a younger James Bond you best believe I would be there. It is what it is, we’ll have to wait and see.”

During a conversation on the Variety Award Circuit podcast, Tom first revealed his desire to play Agent 007. He had said, “Ultimately as a young British lad who loves cinema, I’d love to be James Bond. So y’know, I’m just putting that out there. I mean I look pretty good in a suit! I’d be like a really short James Bond.”
Talking about the spy film, Daniel Craig is the current Agent working on her Majesty’s orders. The actor revealed that No Time To Die – which releases on September 30 – would be his last appearance as the secret agent. Who would you like to see taking the baton forward?
