Talking to the Mirro Evans said, “I think I have cut my teeth very well in movies I have done and I have enjoyed every second of it. It’s a phenomenal job, a phenomenal franchise, an incredible role. I have to say though. It’s a daunting task for any actor to play the role after Daniel Craig. No one knows what’s happening”. He also says that if offered the chance he would jump at it immediately.
The actor then wished all the other contenders with good luck for the role. If Evans is chosen for the role then it will become the second Welsh actor to play Bond after Timothy Dalton.
