They never did the stories.\u201d<\/p>\n He continued: \u201cThey took the plot line and maybe the Bond girl or maybe the villain and then just went their own way.

He did the writing for a lot of them.<\/p>\n \u201cI think they should not remake the movies but actually just do the books, but do them the way they were written. And those would all be brand new.\u201d<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n However, when pushed as to whether he would consider making a Bond film himself, Tarantino said: \u201cNo, because The Movie Critic is my last motion picture, OK?!\u201d<\/p> Following Daniel Craig\u2019s departure from his role as Bond, it is still unclear just who will be putting on the tuxedo next<\/a>, although plenty of names have been circulating.<\/p>\n Tom Hanks has said<\/a> that, for his money, Idris Elba should be offered the role, while Rupert Friend<\/a>, who was previously in contention but ultimately stepped away because of his young age, has said: \u201cMaybe I\u2019ve got the scars and the bruises now.\u201d<\/p>\n James Bond films including No Time to Die, Casino Royale and many more are available to rent or buy on Prime Video.\u00a0Sign up for a 30-day free trial and pay \u00a38.99 per month<\/a>\u00a0after that.<\/strong><\/p>\n Check out more of our Film<\/a>\u00a0coverage or visit our\u00a0TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Streaming Guide<\/a>\u00a0to find out what\u2019s on.<\/strong><\/p>\n Try Radio Times magazine today and get 12 issues for only \u00a31 with delivery to your home \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>subscribe now<\/strong><\/a>.
