No Time To Die, which will be released in April, marks Craig's final outing as 007, and his replacement has not yet been announced.
"James Bond can be of any colour, but he is male," producer Barbara Broccoli told Variety.
"I believe we should be creating new characters for women - strong female characters.
"I'm not particularly interested in taking a male character and having a woman play it. I think women are far more interesting than that."
