Trying to decide what to watch after Carry-On.
It's either Die Another Day, which is the only Craig one I haven't seen.
Kingsmens because it's a great fun.
Or Upgrade because I love Leigh Whannell.

Industry observers are now saying they think Josh O'Connor could be the ideal candidate for the next 007

What I mean is, it's not his ability to act well. It's outside problems the film fails.
He was Kickass and it was a hit.

I haven't seen Kraven so I'm not sure why it failed.
Sometimes it's storyline is weak, the director's ability to work well with actors.
There are many reasons but sometimes it's not the actors ability.

Talk is Idris Elba playing Bond. Idris is a great actor but he's up there in age.

I think Taron did great in Kingsmen and he should consider it. I read he's concerned about his height and weight.
Bond actors have always had to work out to keep in shape as most actors who play action heroes.
Look at Hugh Jackman. He had to get back in shape to play Wolvie again.

Because when they ask “do you expect me to sign” the studio says “no, we expect you to die!” Hard to get a guy to willingly sign up for that sort thing.

All that said, yeah, a younger Bond seems like the only way for them to go. Other than a much older Bond, I guess, or some other dramatic reinvention.

It's possible there's not a lot of interest for someone successful and young to tie themselves down. I know Craig talked about that a lot, and it came up in the early days of the MCU, where people kind of bounced off projects because they had to essentially agree to do them for a solid decade.
Presumably the actors most likely to say yes to that are relative unknowns, then, which carries its own risk.
