In a recent interview with GQ, Fassbender gave a pretty firm response when asked if he'd consider the role.
"To be honest, no," he said. "As an acting role, I think Daniel has done such a cracking job in this age group.
"No, I think the franchise needs something new."
Fassbender went on to say he thinks new films could jump back in time to the early days of Bond in training school and show how he originally became a 00 agent.
And as for who should play the next Bond?
"I always thought Bond should be British, but let's get an American in," said Fassbender. "Or maybe someone like Jack O'Connell would be good? Or even better, how about Jane Bond? A woman.
"One thing is for sure, it won't be anyone on the bookies' lists. It never is."
