Pierce Brosnan says Aaron Taylor-Johnson 'has the chops' to play James Bond.

Though it has yet to be confirmed, all signs point towards Aaron Taylor-Johnson becoming the next James Bond. Should that end up being the case, the Kraven star will become the eighth actor to play the superspy, and previous Bonds are speaking out in support of Taylor-Johnson's potential casting. Earlier this month, George Lazenby threw his support behind Taylor-Johnson and now, Pierce Brosnan says he thinks the actor would do great in the role.

Interestingly enough, Brosnan previously said he thought a different actor—Oppenheimer's Oscar-winning Cillian Murphy—would be the perfect person to play 007. As recently as last year, however, longtime Bond producer Barbara Broccoli said there's no official frontrunner for the role.

Soderbergh's new project is a spy movie set in the United Kingdom. As well as Brosnan, other members of the cast include Cate Blanchett, Michael Fassbender, and fellow James Bond alumnus, Naomie Harris. Given Soderbergh's popularity, as well as the film's familiar genre, Black Bag could finally give Brosnan the James Bond follow-up he needs
