Next James Bond Betting Odds
Who Are The Favourites To Be the Next James Bond?
Marvel star Aaron Taylor-Johnson and former Superman actor Henry Cavill are currently seen as the top contenders for the next James Bond role, despite casting not yet having officially begun. This has been reported by multiple outlets and is also reflected in betting markets.
While Henry Cavill was initially believed to be the frontrunner for the role due to his previous association with the Superman character, news of his departure from the role has only fueled speculation that he could potentially be the next James Bond.
Other actors who are being considered for the role include Bridgerton breakout star Rege Jean-Page, BAFTA nominee James Norton, London Academy graduate Chiwetel Ejiofor, Downton Abbey star Dan Stevens, fan-favourite Tom Hardy, Welsh actor Luke Evans and the ever-popular Idris Elba, among others.
Who Has Played James Bond Before?
Since the character's big screen debut in 1962's Dr. No, audiences have enjoyed 25 outings of 007 action. During this time six different actors have stepped into the famous Aston Martin.
Sean Connery provided the first, and in many people's opinion, the most iconic version of James Bond. The Scottish-born originator starred in six films, enjoying his final appearance as the character following a solitary performance by George Lazenby in On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
The longest-serving 007 remains Roger Moore who occupied the role from 1973-1985; holstering the Walther PPK on seven different occasions. Timothy Dalton's two-film run initiated the character's longest hiatus before Pierce Brosnan assumed responsibilities in 1995's GoldenEye. That casting only withstood four movies as Daniel Craig replaced him in 2006's reboot Casino Royale.
Lazenby is the youngest Bond to date at age 29 during the filming of his only outing. Moore is the man on the opposite end of the scale, playing 007 between his years of 45 all the way to 57!
Calls for diversity could shake up the usual patterns for casting, with fans wanting to see a James Bond of colour, or even a female 007.
Who is Offering Odds On the Next James Bond?
The market has opened up a lot more as time has passed. Daniel Craig made it known in September 2021 that No Time To Die would be his swan song as Bond, claiming that his exit was necessary for both the franchise and his acting career.
Currently, there are several betting sites offering odds on who the next James Bond will be. These include William Hill, 888Sport, Unibet, Betfred and Boylesports.
