Ram Charan can be next James Bond, says Luke Cage creator

Ever since SS Rajamouli’s magnum opus RRR hit the screens, Mega Powerstar Ram Charan has been receiving global appreciation for his performance in the movie.

So far, top Hollywood writers like Doctor Strange’s C Robert Cargill, DC’s Batman Beyond and Marvel Comics’ Captain America and Kang writer Jackson Lanzing have all showered praises on the film as well as the Magadheera actor.

Now, Marvel’s Luke Cage creator Cheo Hodari Coker has suggested Ram Charan would be an ideal choice to play the next James Bond role as British actor Daniel Craig’s stint as James Bond ended with last year’s No Time to Die.

As the hunt for the new 007 began, Coker took to his Twitter handle and shared a number of names as his choices for the next James Bond. He wrote, “Bond? Idris Elba, Sope Dirisu, Matthew Goode, Damson Idris, and Ram Charan.”

After that tweet went viral, Coker shared another message that read, “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.”

If Ram Charan steps into the shoes of Daniel Craig, he will become the seventh actor to play James Bond as part of the franchise after Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan, and Daniel Craig.
