Succession’s Brian Cox Reveals His Shock That He Wasn’t in the Next Bond Movie

Succession star Brian Cox accepted the 007: Road to a Million gig thinking it was actually the new James Bond film.”I thought it was the new James Bond film,” Cox said to Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show. “So I said, ‘Oh, finally they’re getting me in a James Bond movie.’ I thought, ‘Yes, of course!'” It was only afterward that he learned that “there was no script and there was no James Bond movie.””For years, I thought, you know I would love to be in James Bond,” Cox continued. “It would be really interesting. And I thought this was my moment, but it wasn’t.” 007: Road To A Million turned out to be a game show, loosely tied to the Bond franchise through the missions that it assigns to contestants. It marks the first time that the James Bond IP has been used for anything other than movies, with Bond producer Barbara Broccoli saying, “We’re always very protective of Bond. It wasn’t so much about the time being right [to do a TV show]. It was about the concept being right. 72 Films approached us. We loved the concept and we thought we’d give it a go. And judging by the reaction, I think we got it right.”Barbie Director Wants Ken Actor Kingsley Ben-Adir to Be the Next James Bond
