Ever since the Amazon acquisition of creative control, many questions have arisen regarding the transition of the James Bond franchise from its long-time caretakers, Barbara Broccoli and Michael J. Wilson.
Are we destined to see the dilution of our cherished film heritage through an endless stream of uninspired spin-offs?
Which way will 007 head next, and who will be the director to lead Bond into this fresh chapter?
Above all, who will take on the role of this new installment’s James Bond?
Henry Cavill seems to be the people’s choice. Frequently mentioned names include Aaron Taylor-Johnson, James Norton, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Richard Madden, Rege-Jean Page, and Tom Hardy.
Currently, a fresh name has been introduced to the list: ever-growing list. And even foreign governments are joining in…
Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk has jokingly added Jesse Eisenberg’s name to the conversation by extending a lighthearted invitation to the U.S. actor and filmmaker, who was nominated for an Academy Award. A Real Pain.
Eisenberg, who has recently acquired Polish citizenship and has appeared in movies such as The Social Network, Zombieland, and for his roles in the Now You See Me film series, received military training from Tusk—a rigorous program that positioned him as “the next James Bond.”
Tusk uploaded a video on X featuring him watching a segment from Eisenberg’s appearance on NBC’s The Tonight Show. During this appearance, Eisenberg humorously mentioned that the next day after obtaining his citizenship, he checked the news and saw “the lead story was ‘Poland now mandates compulsory military service for all men.'” This comment elicited laughter from the audience.
In his video, Tusk stated: “Jesse, there truly isn’t anything to fear!” He emphasized that participation in the military training is optional.
So head over to Poland! We’ll provide you with such exceptional training that, dreaming of becoming the next James Bond? The part could be yours!
Who would have thought landing Hollywood’s most coveted film role could be so simple?
On March 7th, Tusk stated that his administration was developing a strategy to ready extensive military exercises for all adult males in light of the evolving security landscape in Europe.
The Polish Prime Minister stated that they require an armed force consisting of 500,000 troops, exceeding the present count by over twice as much, incorporating reserves into this total.
Last week, he also mentioned that beginning in 2027, the government plans to train 100,000 volunteers annually with military instruction as part of their effort to create a reserve force.
He stated that he believed “there would be no lack of people willing to volunteer.”
Not when 00 status is almost within grasp…
