Look out, Daniel Craig, Denzel Washington has his eye on your job.

Washington took part in an Ask Me Anything Q & A session on Reddit on Friday to promote his new film The Equalizer. In between questions about his secrets for a long marriage and his favorite pizza toppings, a user asked the Flight star, “Would you be interested in being the next James Bond?”

"The next James Bond? They better hurry up! Yes I would!" the Academy Award winner said. "Who’s doing James Bond now..Daniel Craig! Did they shoot another one?"

"Everybody should tweet Denzel is James Bond! Send it to the studio!” he replied to user BigTalk45. “We start the Denzel is Bond campaign today!”

It was hard to tell whether Washington was serious—and careful observers will note the suspiciously exuberant use of exclamation points—about wanting to take on the role of the famous spy, but some fans took him at his word and the #DenzellsJamesBond hashtag started to populate Twitter:

This isn't the first time the actor has been asked about picking up Bond's famed tuxedo, martini glass and license to kill. Back in 2012, though, he dodged the question posed during a Hollywood Reporter roundtable, saying, “It’s too late now.” Washington laughed as he added, "Old James Bond."

But as Bond says, you only live twice, and at the age of 59, Washington continues to take on action roles. He may have realized it's never too late to follow your dreams to play a spy and order your martinis shaken, not stirred.
