Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestylePeaky Blinders creator Steven Knight has revealed that writing the screenplay for the next James Bond film feels like doing his “duty for King and country”. Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, the 67-year-old screenwriter stated he feels a deep responsibility to honour the franchise's unique British identity, setting it apart from American superhero franchises like Marvel or DC. Knight confirmed he is tuning out public noise and keeping all narrative details strictly under wraps while adhering to the established rules of the 007 universe. Speculation continues to build over who will step into the role of James Bond, particularly following Amazon MGM Studios taking creative control of the franchise.
