Jacob Elordi would be the totally wrong choice to play James Bond
Jacob Elordi is being considered as a potential candidate for the next James Bond, but many believe he would be the wrong choice. While he has gained fame for his roles in popular series and films, his established celebrity status may not align with the franchise's history of casting lesser-known actors. The search for a new Bond is reportedly focused on finding a fresh face under 30, which could lead to a more energizing reboot of the iconic character.
