Go back in Bond history, when Roger Moore was bond, the producers made the mistake of keeping Moore too long. Check the last one or two Bond movies with Roger Moore and you will understand why people lost interest.
Then they chose Timothy Dalton. Really bad move. But let's skip Dalton. He hasn't been heard from since and doesn't count anyways.
Brosnan was wanted instead of Dalton actually but still was under contract for Remington Steele in those days. When his contract there was up, MGM/UA signed him up right away.
Brosnan's contract for filming Bond movies stated that he would be making only 4 movies.
GoldenEye
Tomorrow Never Dies
The World Is Not Enough
Die Another Day
His contract is up and the producers feel it's time to change Bond as to avoid a repeat of the Moore fiasco
