While Daniel Craig has made a point of shrugging his shoulders and telling everyone, “I don’t care,” his predecessor Pierce Brosnan has apparently given a little more thought to the matter.

Former James Bond Pierce Brosnan says the next 007 must be British as Amazon MGM Studios take control over the historic franchise. Brosnan spoke to The Telegraph, saying that it’s “a given” that a British actor should take up the 007 mantle.

Pierce Brosnan revealed his top requirement for the next person to portray James Bond. The former Bond actor shared his thoughts on the franchise’s future while also discussing his impact on the film series in a new interview.
