If the only credentials a person needs to be considered for the role of James Bond is being fit, David Beckham’s got it in the bag.

And he’s got the backing of Sam Smith.

Sam – who’s singing the theme for upcoming 007 film, Spectre – is backing Becks for the role once Daniel Craig decides to hang his tux up.

Sam told The Sun: “That would be interesting, that’s all I’ll say - that would be very interesting. He’d look fit for sure. He looks amazing in a suit.”

It comes as the former England captain, 40, revealed his hopes to make a huge name for himself in Hollywood after swapping football for an acting career.
