I wanna be Bond: Priyanka Chopra will not settle for 'Bond Girl' roles

Since the stories of Daniel Craig hanging his Bond boots after Spectre started to surface, everyone, from Idris Elba, Tom Hiddleston, to Gillian Anderson were being talked about to play the iconic spy.

Bond girls are discussed with just the same enthusiasm as the MI 6 spy. So if there is a new Bond, there will be a new Bond girl.

Baywatch babe Priyanka Chopra is at the centre of the rumours speculating the next love interest of Bond. But desi girl Priyanka Chopra has a different take.

Priyanka says she has no interest in playing the Bond girl, but the next Bond!

In an interview with Complex, she said, "I get that all the time. But f--- that. I wanna be Bond."

After playing the baddie in Baywatch, which was originally written for a man, being Bond seems like an appropriate step.

Are Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson, producers for Bond movies willing to gender swap the lead role?
