Ram Charan has been receiving immense praise for his performance in S S Rajamouli’s blockbuster ‘RRR’ from several celebrities in Bollywood as well as Hollywood. Recently, Marvel creator Cheo Hodari Coker, who is impressed with Ram’s portrayal of a freedom fighter in the film, expressed his desire to see him as the next James Bond. 
There has been a lot of speculation about who will take the baton from Daniel Craig for the iconic role of a British spy lately and Cheo believes that Ram Charan may be a good contender for the role.  
He shared his preferences for James Bond on Twitter on Wednesday. His list also included actors Idris Elba, Sope Dirisu, Matthew Goode, and Damson Idris.  
Cheo Hodari Choker’s tweet went viral in no time and he took to Twitter again to explain why he thought that these actors would be perfect for the role. 
‘Damn! That escalated quickly. Everyone knows Idris from, well, everything, but to get inside my thinking, watch Sope in Gangs Of London, Matthew G in The Offer, Damson in Snowfall and Ram in RRR. They all deserve a shot at a Savile Row suit and a Walther PPK,’ he wrote. 
Ram Charan fans rejoiced at the possibility of him being cast as Bond. Earlier, directors James Gunn, Scott Derrickson and the Russo Brothers also praised ‘RRR’.  
‘RRR’, which released in March this year, also stars NTR Jr, Alia Bhatt and Ajay Devgn in pivotal roles.

Monty Norman, a British composer who wrote the theme tune for the James Bond films, has died. He was 94.
A statement posted Monday on Norman’s official website said: “It is with sadness we share the news that Monty Norman died on 11th July 2022 after a short illness.”
Born Monty Noserovitch to Jewish parents in the East End of London in 1928, Norman got his first guitar when he was 16. He performed with big bands and in a variety double act with comedian Benny Hill before writing songs for early British rockers Cliff Richard and Tommy Steele and composing for stage musicals including “Make Me an Offer,” “Expresso Bongo,” “Songbook” and “Poppy.”
Norman was hired by producer Albert “Cubby” Broccoli to compose a theme for the first James Bond film, “Dr. No,” released in 1962.
He drew on a piece he had written for a proposed musical adaptation of V.S. Naipaul’s “A House for Mr. Biswas,” shifting the key riff from sitar to electric guitar. The result - twangy, propulsive, menacing - has been used in all 25 Bond thrillers.
Producers hired composer John Barry to rearrange the theme, and Barry was widely assumed to have written it - to Norman's chagrin. Barry, who died in 2011, went on to compose scores for almost a dozen Bond films, including “Goldfinger” and “You Only Live Twice.”
Norman went to court to assert his authorship, suing the Sunday Times newspaper for libel over a 1997 article asserting the theme was composed by Barry. He won in 2001 and was awarded 30,000 pounds in damages.

Daniel Craig has played the role of James Bond in five films for fifteen years. 'No Time To Die' which recently released in theatres is his last film as James Bond.&nbsp;

Daniel Craig wraps up a 15-year journey as 007 with 'No Time To Die' and the hunt for the next Bond is on. But Bond films are incomplete without the Bond girls.&nbsp;
Sultry, smart, and all-around badass, these are women&nbsp;who have captured 007's heart, or broken it, over and over again.
In 'No Time To Die' , Cuban actor Ana de Armas joins the ranks of Halle Berry and Ursula Andress.... but she's no damsel in distress, like some of her predecessors.
While some argue that the female characters in the Bond films were treated just as sexy window dressing, they were often independent women with&nbsp;unusual&nbsp;and&nbsp;gender-bending&nbsp;careers which included private investigators, astrophysicists, pilots, crime boss and sometimes even spies!&nbsp;&nbsp;
The&nbsp;no-nonsense Pussy Galore from the 1964 film 'Goldfinger' operated her&nbsp;own flight school.&nbsp;Who can forget&nbsp;Xenia&nbsp;Onatopp,&nbsp;GoldenEye's&nbsp;femme fatale, who crushed men to death between her powerful thighs?&nbsp;
As the film franchise moved on with the times, roles for women got more interesting, and importantly, more central to the plot.&nbsp;&nbsp;Here are our favourite Bond girls over the years.
Ursula Andress as Honey Ryder&nbsp;|&nbsp;Dr. No (1962)&nbsp;&nbsp;
There is no denying Ursula&rsquo;s reign as the No. 1 Bond Girl of all time. Her role&nbsp;in 1962 bond film,&nbsp;Dr.No&nbsp;won her the&nbsp;Golden Globe&nbsp;award,&nbsp;making&nbsp;her the&nbsp;only&nbsp;Bond&nbsp;actress&nbsp;to have won the trophy.&nbsp;All it took was that one moment when she rose out of the sea in nothing but a knife and a white bikini.&nbsp;She set the bar very high for all other Bond girls that followed
Honor Blackman as Pussy Galore | Goldfinger (1964)
Honor&nbsp;Blackman&nbsp;played the role of Pussy Galore, a pilot and judo expert in the 1964 film&nbsp; 'Goldfinger'. Fun fact...the US censors at that name, almost banned the film due to the insanely suggestive name of her character!&nbsp;An iconic Bond girl,&nbsp;Pussy Galore operated her own flight school&nbsp;in the film.&nbsp;Already an established name on TV and movies at the time, the British actress left the hit BBC series 'The Avengers' to play Bond girl.&nbsp;She later starred in many films,&nbsp;including 'Columbo', 'Doctor Who' and 'Bridget Jones&rsquo; Diary'. She died in 2020 at the age of 94.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Michelle Yeoh as Wai Lin&nbsp;|&nbsp;Tomorrow Never Dies, (1997)
Wai&nbsp;lin&nbsp;joined the 007 franchise as&nbsp;the&nbsp;first&nbsp;Asian Bond girl and the role was played by martial arts star&nbsp;Michelle Yeoh. The Malaysian actor was stellar in the role of the Chinese spy, who beats her opponents to a pulp and, during one unforgettable bike chase, becomes the ultimate backseat driver.&nbsp;
Eva Green as Vesper Lynd&nbsp; |&nbsp;Casino Royale (2006)
After M and Tracy,&nbsp;Moneypenny, Vesper Lynd&nbsp;played by Eva Green is&nbsp;the&nbsp;woman in Bond&rsquo;s life.&nbsp;The French actress received a BAFTA Rising Star Award for her role as the mysterious, ill-fated Vesper Lynd, who captivates Bond, and then&nbsp;breaks his heart.
Halle Berry as Jinx Johnson | Die Another Day, (2002)
Halle Berry was the first&nbsp;African-&nbsp;American&nbsp;to play a Bond girl.&nbsp;She played the role of a rogue NSA agent Giacinta &ldquo;Jinx&rdquo; Johnson, drawing rave reviews as one of the top females of the franchise.&nbsp;With Jinx enjoying risking death and danger as much as Bond, it was a match made in heaven.&nbsp;

Will Lashana Lynch be the first female Bond?
Actress Lashana Lynch plays agent 006 in the future Bond films, and looks like the most obvious choice to carry the legacy as Bond. Also, it&rsquo;s about time we have a woman as Bond.&nbsp;Lynch is a British actor, she is best known for playing the role of Rosaline Capulet in the ABC period drama series &lsquo;Still Star-Crossed&rsquo; and fighter pilot Maria Rambeau in &lsquo;Captain Marvel&rsquo;.&nbsp;Lashana Lynch says the next Bond could be a man or a woman, they could be white, black, Asian, or mixed race, young or old.&nbsp;&nbsp;So, we are hoping that door is still open.&nbsp;

Will fan favourite Idris Elba be the next&nbsp;James&nbsp;Bond?
London-born actor Idris Elba has been one of the most talked-about potential replacements for Daniel Craig in recent years. Epitome of suave, Elba is a fan favourite for the role. Through his body of work,&nbsp;he has also demonstrated some serious action-man credentials.&nbsp;In 2018, he sent the industry into a frenzy with a single tweet: &ldquo;My name&rsquo;s Elba, Idris Elba.&rdquo;&nbsp;Not just that, in April this year, Elba revealed that even his mother was confident of him landing the role.&nbsp;
Reg&eacute;-Jean Page | From Duke of Hastings to&nbsp;James&nbsp;Bond?
Reg&eacute;-Jean Page&nbsp;set millions of hearts aflutter with Netflix hit 'Bridgerton'&nbsp;over the past year.&nbsp;This young British-Zimbabwean actor is another favourite to be the next&nbsp;James&nbsp;Bond.&nbsp;&nbsp;He has been also been quite honest about the idea.&nbsp;Well, the women aren&rsquo;t complaining, if you ask us.&nbsp;
Henry Golding | Will fans get the first Asian&nbsp;James&nbsp;Bond?&nbsp;
'Crazy Rich Asians' star Henry Golding is the first actor of Asian descent who has been rumoured to be in the running to play the British spy. The British-Malaysian actor in an interview admitted that he was &ldquo;honoured&rdquo; to even be considered for the role of 007.&nbsp;Golding says, Bond is one of the greatest film roles ever, and someone would be stupid to be say no to it.&nbsp;
Richard Madden | Will the Game of Thrones star bag another franchise?
Game of Thrones&nbsp;star Richard Madden could just find his way into another major film franchise, if bookies in England are to be believed. Richard Madden, aka Robb Stark on&nbsp;GoT, is also another&nbsp;front-runner&nbsp;to play&nbsp;James&nbsp;Bond once Daniel Craig calls it a day.&nbsp;His potential for bagging the coveted role went up after his award-winning performance in Netflix show, 'Bodyguard'.&nbsp;However,&nbsp;Madden feels with the debut of every young British actor, he becomes the next favourite for&nbsp;James&nbsp;Bond.&nbsp;
Next&nbsp;James&nbsp;Bond? Some honourable mentions
British actor, Henry Cavill is also one of the most popular names in contention to play&nbsp;James&nbsp;Bond in the future.&nbsp;Cavil&nbsp;has already played Superman aka Clark Kent in the DC films. He&rsquo;s also been a part of several spy-action thrillers including &lsquo;Mission: Impossible 6&rsquo; and &lsquo;The Man From U.N.C.L.E&rsquo;.&nbsp;
Tom&nbsp;Hardy has the critics in his kitty, for films like&nbsp;The Revenant&nbsp;and&nbsp;Mad Max.&nbsp;Although he has played the Batman&rsquo;s nemesis Bane in DC film &lsquo;The Dark Knight Rises&rsquo;, fans feel he has the&nbsp;rugged handsomeness, and can turn on the charm as well.&nbsp;
For now, lips are sealed at Bond HQ.&nbsp;James&nbsp;Bond producer Barbara Broccoli says, &ldquo;You can only be in love with one person at a time. And for now, we just cannot think about anything beyond Daniel."&nbsp;

Actor Daniel Craig finally hangs up his boots with a last outing as James Bond in 'No Time To Die'. The star's final performance as Bond follows years of rumors and debates over who should be the next 007.
In 2015, he famously said he'd rather "slash his wrists" than make another Bond movie, a comment he later explained was a joke from the fatigue of just completing one film.
Recently, Craig was also quoted as saying that he was against the idea of casting a woman in the role. In a fresh clarification, he says, he never said a woman could not be the new Bond.
Partly set in Jamaica, where author Ian Fleming wrote all of his Bond novels, 'No Time To Die' follows Bond as the tranquil life he has been living since leaving active service is interrupted, for a mission to save a kidnapped scientist.

The name&rsquo;s Craig, Commander Craig.
Britain&rsquo;s Royal Navy said that James Bond star Daniel Craig has been made an honorary commander in the service, the same rank held by his character on screen.
"Daniel Craig is well known for being Commander Bond for the last 15 years -- a naval officer who keeps Britain safe through missions across the globe. That's what the real Royal Navy does every day, using technology and skill the same way as Bond himself," said First Sea Lord Admiral Sir Tony Radakin, the head of the Royal Navy.
In Ian Fleming&rsquo;s spy thrillers, which led to the blockbuster film franchise, James Bond is a World War II naval veteran working for Britain&rsquo;s secret service with a 'license to kill'.
Interestingly, Craig was made an honorary naval officer ahead of the release of 'No Time to Die', his fifth and final appearance as 007.
Craig wants to use his newly minted military status, as a way to help UK military families.
After 18 months of pandemic delays, 'No Time to Die' opens in theatres in India and UK on September 30 and October 8 in the United States.
