Filmmaker Danny Boyle is tipped to make the next 007 blockbuster after "Skyfall" director Sam Mendes shot down the offer.
Bond producer Barbara Broccoli is said to have chatted with Oscar-winner Boyle, 56, at London's Empire Film Awards on Sunday, reported Sun Online.
"Trainspotting" director, who won the Empire Outstanding Contribution to Film gong, was hailed an Olympic hero for last year's opening ceremony. Veteran Bond producer Michael G Wilson had recently said, "He certainly could be a Bond director."
