Fans have blasted claims that Prince William could be good enough to play James Bond.
Fans Troll Prince William After Claims He Could Play James Bond-‘He’s More Like A Butler Than 007’
These comparisons were made by the current Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson. And given that Daniel Craig is not going to be presiding over this role any longer, there is clearly a need to find a new 007.
While their comments were not meant to be taken literally, they did suggest that William had all the qualities that were needed to play the role. In her comments, Barbara said: “[William] ticks all the boxes.”
The comparisons stemmed from the fact that William has worked as an ambulance pilot for East Anglian Air Ambulance. Not only that, but the character of Bond had gone to Eaton just like William had done.
Nevertheless, those comments have to be taken with a pinch of salt for the following reasons. First of all, William is not going to be giving up his entire career anytime soon.
Secondly, the sincerity of those comments have to be questioned. After all, the two producers happened to have received CBE’s when the comments were made. As such, the last thing they would have done is stated anything negative about William.
It is not surprising, then, that the fans on social media had a lot to say about the matter. A significant proportion of fans began to troll at the idea that William had what it took to play the character.
This was on the grounds of his appearance, as well as his personality in general. And by the looks of it, the comments were very harsh indeed.
One person wrote: “Dream on, the guy is a wet,” while another person stated: “He’s More like a butler than 007 lol.” Perhaps it is best that William sticks with his Royal duties for now.
After all, the Royal family will need him more than ever to cope with the current challenges. So there you have it folks. What did you think about this? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
