After his Oscar-nominated role as Elvis Presley, Austin Butler stars as the villainous Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen in Dune 2 this weekend.<\/p>\n
The 30-year-old rising star of Master of the Air is certainly having his moment, but what about his chances of playing the next James Bond now the role is vacant?<\/p>\n
After all, he\u2019s certainly got the looks and producer Michael G Wilson has said they\u2019re looking for a man in his thirties.\u00a0<\/p>\n
During a recent appearance on The Tonight Show to promote Dune: Part Two, host Jimmy Fallon pulled up old footage of the actor confidently saying he could play 007.<\/p>\n
In the archive Teen Vogue clip, a blonde-haired Butler said: \u201cI could be the first American James Bond. I would do it with a British accent.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Laughing at the old footage, Butler said: \u201cThat\u2019s crazy. What was I thinking? I grew up loving James Bond…No, he’s gotta be British.\u201d<\/p>\n
While there\u2019s never been an American Bond in the official 007 movies, not all of them have been British.<\/p>\n
George Lazenby who replaced Sean Connery in his only Bond movie On Her Majesty\u2019s Secret Service was an Australian model with no acting experience.<\/p>\n
Additionally, Pierce Brosnan was born in the Republic of Ireland, so don\u2019t expect the next Bond to be British for sure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[ad_2]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
