Now this idea is much more plausible than the fatherly cameo that Sir Sean Connery was supposed to be involved in. As we will see in No Time To Die, the code number 007 can be given to someone else, however much it has been assigned to Nomi from Lashawna Lynch in the absence of James Bond. However, since Pierce Brosnan’s Bond was still part of the loose continuity that had maintained the classic film series, this would have been a possible confirmation of the fan-favorite theory that “James Bond” is a codename and not a real identity. So if you were to guess why this cameo was shot down, it was probably from the name, not the number, associated with the 007 legacy.
