About this deal

So, here we are at last. No Time To Die came and went, and it's now more than two years since Daniel Craig was banged out of MI6. The question turns to who will be the next James Bond now he's swapped his Walther PPK for a P45. It's crazy. It's not real. It's speculative," Norton told the Sunday Times in January 2020. "There is no truth behind it. Unless journalists know something more than I do.”

Ejiofor's Bond would, you feel, make for a more cerebral spy than Craig's man mountain. He's certainly got the kind of acting chops which Bond now demands – recall 12 Years a Slave, and a string of Shakespeare and Chekhov productions at the National, Donmar and Royal Court theatres – and could recentre the character with more of the froideur and stillness which Fleming first gave him.Aaron Taylor-Johnson is the latest star to see his name at the head of the betting after a flurry of interest from punters over the last two days,’ notes Alex Apati of UK bookmakers Ladbrokes. 2. Henry Cavill So we're a long, long way away from a photocall with some dashing young chap wearing a tux. Some clues have been dropped though. We’ve tried looking at younger people in the past," Wilson said. "But trying to visualise it doesn’t work. Remember, Bond’s already a veteran. He’s had some experience. He’s a person who has been through the wars, so to speak. He’s probably been in the SAS or something." With Bond 26 not expected on our cinema screens until 2025 at the earliest, the film remains firmly in the pre-pre-production phase. ‘We’re working out where to go with him, we’re talking that through,’ said Barbara Broccoli in June 2022 . ‘There isn’t a script and we can’t come up with one until we decide how we’re going to approach the next film because, really, it’s a reinvention of Bond. We’re reinventing who he is and that takes time. I’d say that filming is at least two years away.’

He had no idea whether he was still in the Bond higher-ups' minds. "But I think the role’s fantastic and I’d love to throw my oversized hat into the ring again if they are! It’d be nice to see a Scottish Bond again." Co-producer Michael G Wilson has also stressed that Bond 26 will be a hard reset for the franchise and for Bond himself. Don’t expect any youngsters in the running was the gist of his comments in 2022. Of course, Broccoli previously stated that the search for the next James Bond would begin in 2022 after Craig’s dramatic exit prompted speculation about who would become the world’s greatest spy in his wake.

Perhaps most importantly, you also need to be in tune with the era in which the new Bond exists. Whoever it is will have to do the same scene for their audition: the one in From Russia With Love where Bond suspects an intruder has come for him in his hotel room, only to find it's Tatiana Romanova trying to put her moves on him. In a chat with TMZ, former Bond George Lazenby threw his weight behind fellow "good-looking Aussie dude" and baby of the Hemsworth acting brood Liam, adding that the new guy – whoever they are – had to be "crazy enough, arrogant enough, confident enough, ambitious enough to take on the role". Think about it. He’s 33. He can do the action stuff, as we saw when he was spraying chrome paint onto his teeth on Mad Max: Fury Road. He’s been in a couple of arty favourites in The Favourite and True History of the Kelly Gang. He’s a very different physical specimen to Daniel Craig, stringy and slightly elfin rather than butch and chunky, and that could be a bit of a draw to the Bond suits who’ll likely be keen to draw a line between the post-Bourne Bond years and whatever the new one turns into. The post-Marvel Bond years? The post- Avatar 2 Bond years? The post- F9 Bond years? Who knows.

The James Bond Concert Spectacular by Q The Music Show was formed in 2004 as the world’s first dedicated tribute to the music of 007. They have gone on to establish themselves amongst every Bond fan club around the world as the finest performances of the songs since the originals.It’s out with Daniel Craig and in with… well, who? That’s the question that will be preoccupying EON producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson over the coming months. When will the next James Bond be announced? After a 2023 spent riding high in both the TV charts – and the music charts, with the tie-in album Aurora – for his role as Billy Dunne in the series about the fictional band Daisy Jones & The Six, Claflin has definitely made the crossover to bonafide star on both sides of the Atlantic. Quite what the next incarnation of Bond will embody depends who plays him. These are the frontrunners. Next James Bond In their long history, the Eon Bond films have been nominated for and won multiple awards, including six Academy Awards: one for Visual Effects, two for Sound Effects/Sound Editing, and three for Original Song (“Skyfall” by Adele, “Writing’s on the Wall” by Sam Smith, and “No Time to Die” by Billie Eilish). Euphoria's Nate Jacobs is one of the hottest young actors around and the other Aussie Bond George Lazenby has been through a bit of a critical renaissance over the last few years – not least within the Bond universe itself, having been given his flowers about 50 years late in all the nods and references in No Time To Die. So could it be time for another tall man from Down Under to endure a barrage of red-top headlines mashing Bond iconography with laboured puns about kangaroos, shrimps and barbies?
