Spider-Man star Tom Holland has long been one of the (many) names swirling in James Bond fandom circles as franchise bosses prepare to replace outgoing 007 Daniel Craig with a new leading man for the next chapter.<\/p>\n
And it seems Holland has had Bond in his eye-line for a while now.<\/p>\n
In a new interview with Total Film<\/a>, the British actor revealed he once pitched an idea for a \u201cyoung Bond\u201d movie to film bigwigs.<\/p>\n \u201cI had a meeting, after or during Spider-Man [Far from Home], with Sony to pitch this idea of a young Bond film that I\u2019d come up with,\u201d the Peter Parker star said.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was the origin story of James Bond. It didn\u2019t really make sense. It didn\u2019t work. It was the dream of a young kid, and I don\u2019t think the Bond estate were particularly interested,\u201d he added.<\/p> While Holland\u2019s idea for a Bond origin story failed to gain any traction, he said the inspiration led to his upcoming turn as a young Nathan Drake from the Uncharted video games.<\/p>\n \u201cThe idea of a young Bond film sparked this idea, in turn, that you could do a Nathan Drake story as an origin story, rather than as an addition to the games. And that opened a conversation,\u201d Holland told the publication.<\/p>\n Talk of an Uncharted movie<\/a> began years ago but the project eventually got off the ground with Holland attached to play the lead.<\/p>\n Mark Wahlberg also stars as Drake\u2019s mentor, Sully.<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n Uncharted is set for release on 18th February.
