Only if he was somehow necessary for the next Bond film.
It doesn’t sound like there’s a single answer as to why Nolan is, as of today, unlikely. Timing could be an issue because Nolan won’t be able to focus on Bond until next Summer. But Sneider suggests that Amazon may not want a deal with a director who demands so much control. It could also be that Nolan wanted to direct a Bond film under Broccoli and Wilson, and not Amazon. It seems this may be a common sentiment amongst many in Hollywood.

Bezos gets what he pays for.
Maybe Nolan will get an offer he simply can’t refuse. It’s seems Sneider discounts all the usual, directing suspects: Vaughn, McQueen, Berger, etc.
For once we agree, I think Vaughn and Guy Ritchie are both washed up.
I couldn't agree more @MakeshiftPython We don't want an ultra-cartoonish Bond film. No to Guy Ritchie as well. Them two are the same.
Cuaron also nearly directed The World Is Not Enough back in '99 but backed out since he didn't know how the experience would impact his fledgling career at the time.
Like Lee Tamahori and Martín Campbell. ;)
No, they are not the same.
Sounds good!
A lot of times i do sugestion's because you know Eon working on it, like you accepted things easier because there are part of the crew or more disapointed because of them. Always a strong believe that some movie's or subjects must be your time too.
But what do you think of cuaron? He already made Harry Potter and it shows he can handle getting feedback on a major franchise.
Personally though, the calibre of director won’t be my main concern with Bond going forward. I have no doubt Amazon can get excellent talent. But a director is only one part of the equation. Someone like a Cuaron can come along under Amazon and give us a well made Bond film, but that doesn’t mean it won’t feel empty or lacking in that intangible Bondian feel (it could be ‘soulless’ as some people say). Much of it will come down to the writing and creative direction, and then whichever director takes the reins.
Sneider intimated that Jeff Bezos is willing to pay for what he wants. I think its a great sign that Cuaron and Nolan are amongst Amazon's top choices.
But would Nolan direct Bond 27 with an actor he had no part in choosing? If Nolan's terms for Bond 26 are acceptable to Amazon and Nolan is committed to direct Bond 26 as his next project, then--I say-- they should wait. Nolan and Bond together is a marketing dream; it seems like such an "of course" pairing.
But if Amazon can't wait for Nolan, then Cuaron or Iñárritu or Chazelle or someone equally compelling will do. Amazon has to know that whatever comes next has to deliver. We've been so focused on the cons, it seems like we haven't stopped to consider that Amazon may meet the moment.
I thought Amazon would be the one picking Bond 7...Or Amy Pascal & David Heyman. If the rumours are true.
Not if they really want Nolan.
Anyway, he would definitely choose one that Amazon would like. Nolan plays by the Hollywood book.
Yeah....well, we'll find out soon enough. Another rumour is, Nolan wants Cavill for Bond...because of their Man Of Steel history. I don't know how true it is, though.
As far as I know, he’s never had any kind of deal like that with any of the studios, so Amazon wouldn’t have to do that to get him for Bond.
First time I’ve heard of this. Don’t know how true it is either.
I would have thought Pattinson would be a more likely choice from him.
And i agree with Peter is a sad day and amazon are jerks
The Harry Potter series in movie making are big studio produced series, the 7th book also feels a bit to much partly studio produced book. Haven't seen Fantastic movies yet, but David Yates stay to long and Warner give up to fast in my opnion.
Alfonso Cuaron also working for Universal (Children of Men) who earlier going to make Bond 26 and some not straight Universal movies and MGM titles are released or in case of NTTD Re-Released by Warner. Warner who was part of Bond 27/28. If Cuaron, then i hope he consider Alexandre Desplat composer of the last two Harry Potter movies (who i sort of predict/sugest for that franchise) who be also one of sugestion for a Bond movie.
Daniel Craig era and Harry Potter where there get some of there elements/inspiration is very simalar. Dark elements who you also see back in X-men.
