A second series is expected but an unnamed producer on the show said, "We don't know if Richard will do series two. It depends what happens with James Bond, we don't know yet."
There has been increasing speculation about Madden replacing Daniel Craig in the most coveted role in the movies. And it is understood that James Bond producer Barbara Broccoli has been in touch with Madden. It was speculated that Tom Hiddleston would play the part.
Before he starred in Bodyguard, Madden played Robb Stark in TV fantasy series Game Of Thrones, but bowed out in the third season. The eighth and final season of the hit series will bow out in April 2019.
