The former The Only Way Is Essex star is seen wielding a pistol just like the first image released from the forthcoming Bond film Skyfall.

Wright revealed his ambitions for a "licence Towie kill" in a photo shoot for Hello! magazine and said: "It's any man's dream, being Bond."

The 25-year-old, who starred in his own action adventure as he battled his fears in I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here!, said he would do a good job of playing the agent.

"Someone made a joke in a paper about me playing him and I thought, 'Why not? I'll do it, I'll be the next James Bond,' he told the magazine.

"That's the kind of guy I am. I believe you have to dream big and aim for the stars. A bit of it might be tongue in cheek, but do I think I'd make a good Bond? Yeah, I do."

Skyfall is currently in production with Daniel Craig returning for a third time as Bond, and it is due in cinemas later this year.

Wright, currently fronting ITV2's The Gossip which is a spin-off from dating show Take Me Out, also has ambitions to host The X Factor.

"I'm not daunted by things I believe I'm talented at. If you asked me, could I be the next top basketball player? I'd say no. If you ask me, could I present X Factor one day, yeah, I could."

The full interview and photoshoot are in the new edition of Hello! magazine, which is out now.
