Cosmo Jarvis Cools Buzz That He’s The Next Bond: “I Wish Them All The Best In Their Search” – Golden Globes Backstage

There will be no shaken martinis in the future for Cosmo Jarvis.

Asked by a journalist in the Golden Globes press room tonight if there was any truth of him being in contention to play the next James Bond, the actor, who was there celebrating the TV drama win with The Shogun cast stepped forward to the mic, a bit befuddled.

Stuttering, Jarvis answered, “Uh, uh, I don’t know how to construct a….”

He then settled on, “I wish them all the best in their search.”

When the next Bond movie is — God only knows. A recent Wall Street Journal expose detailed the friction between Amazon Studios, which bought MGM for $6.5 billion, and the Broccoli family who controls the 007 franchise. The new studio wants to exploit 007 through various spinoffs and series, however, Barbara Broccoli has held firm to keeping the British spy strictly on the big screen.

The 007 franchise has grossed over $7 billion at the global box office. Daniel Craig made his swan song as Bond in 2021’s No Time to Die, which was one of the first big movies to release in theaters post Covid, grossing over $774M at the global box office.

Jarvis played John Blackthorne in Shogun which is nearing the end of its season 2 writers’ room. Jarvis stars next in the Warner Bros double Robert DeNiro gangster movie, Alto Knights, due out in cinemas on March 21. Jarvis is also starring in the Alex Garland-Ray Mendoza docudrama, Warfare which also stars Joseph Quinn and Will Poulter. The pic is based on Mendoza’s real life experience as a Navy Seal during the Iraq War.
