Gay actor John Barrowman wants to be the next Bond

London, Nov 16: Gay actor John Barrowman says he wants to take over from Daniel Craig as the next James Bond.

Thesun.co.uk reports that Barrowman, 41, auditioned for the role before Pierce Brosnan became the womanising spy in 1994, but was told he was too young. John said: “They really liked me but said to come back in 20 years. “Maybe in a few years time... who knows?” When asked on radio if he would play 007, he said: “Bring it on, baby.” But Andy Lloyd said Barrowman, who married his gay lover two years ago, was “not macho enough”.
