Months ago, Jimmy Fallon predicted that Henry Golding would be the next Bond, and in another recent appearance on Fallon's show, Fallon brought up the casting rumors again. Apparently, Vegas betters believe that there are 10-1 odds that Golding will the next Bond, and, Golding seemed excited about possibly joining the iconic franchise.
As for his toughest competition? That would be the aforementioned Elba. "Who wants to see Elba kick some butt? He's amazing," Golding said. Golding continued, "If you're a male movie star, it is literally the most iconic role possible. I mean, you'd be an absolute idiot not to think and aspire for a role like that."
So basically, he's interested in the role, but doesn't want to seem over eager. Very smooth, that Golding.
