    Pierce Brosnan would love to return to the James Bond franchise - admitting it will be "exciting to see what happens"

    The 72-year-old actor is still best known for playing the suave spy in four movies, GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, The World Is Not Enough, and Die Another Day from 1995 to 2002, and he admits it would be "entertaining" if he was to revisit 007's world one day.


    Speaking to GQ Magazine - https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/pierce-brosnan-men-of-the-year-interview-2025 - about whether he would want to head back to Bond, he said: "Of course, people ask about Bond - 'would you?' and whatever - but that's another man's job.

    "But the possibilities of working within that film, entertaining... so it's going to be exciting to see what happens.

    "I think everything changes, everything falls apart, so you just sit back and enjoy it all."

    Amazon MGM Studios recently took over creative control of the Bond franchise, and Brosnan hasn't ruled out an appearance as a retired agent in a future 007 movie.

    Quizzed on whether he could appear as an agent in a Bond film, he said: "Sometimes you entertain it and sometimes you just move on."

    Brosnan also insisted he won't retire from acting, because he wants to "be an artist 'til the last breath", and he is pleased to have been busy working on cosy crime film The Thursday Murder Club, and gangland series Mob Land recently.

    He said: "It's just been a delight for two years of working back to back.

    "In this time and place in age, it allows me to play characters.

    "It allows me to enjoy the process of acting and of playing within the image, playing within the symbol, playing within the icon of that person that you've created."

    Pierce Brosnan will be honoured at the GQ Men of the Year event on the 18th of November in London
