Undoubtedly, Ejiofor has been performing outstANDingly in big budget Hollywood movies (Serenity, Salt, 2012, Inside Man, etc.) for a number of years, which has paved the way for him to be now in talks for a prospective key cast member of not only upcoming "Bond 24", but has also been linked to forthcoming Star Wars: Episode VII. In addition, prior to signing a deal, scheduling is required to be exercised, as Ejiofor has also been confirmed to star in upcoming crime/drama Triple Nine, which is projected to start filming soon to be launched in 2015.
The deal has not been officially made so far; however, he will most likely be confirmed to play the villain role in next few days. Daniel Craig is all set to reprise his role as Bond for the fourth time, along with other key cast members of "SkyFall" including Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw (known for "Perfume" and "Cloud Atlas") and Naomie Harris (known for Pirates of Caribbean). (Note: If Ejiofor officially joins cast of "Bond 24" in next few days, then most likely he will not sign for Star Wars.)
It seems that Judi Dench will not be reprise her role as "M" this time; however, Ralph Fiennes is going to be the new "M" of British secret agency MI6. Plot details of the film are not known so far.
When it comes to comparing Ejiofor with previous Bond villains, it is quite easy to depict him as a callous villain, yet also aristocratic and classy adversary for Bond. Certainly, a broad assessment of previous films is key factor to the script of upcoming movie, based on what Skyfall's screenwriter John Logan advised to use usual Bond franchise aspects – not to mention, Daniel showing his longing to retake some typical Bond irony/camp, without being cheesy.
Do you think Chiwetel Ejiofor is good choice to play villain in upcoming Bond film?
