Honestly, it feels like ages since we’ve had some solid buzz about who’s going to be the next James Bond. But now, things are heating up! I’m hearing reports – and a lot of whispers from sources – that a recent Oscar nominee is seriously in talks to take on the role. Apparently, this first outing as 007, under the new Amazon MGM Studios banner, is being described as his most dangerous mission yet – and that’s saying something after 60 years of Bond films!
With a recent Oscar nomination for his role as a monster in Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein, this actor is now a potential candidate to play James Bond. He’s reportedly considering taking on this highly sought-after role, adding to his already full workload.
Recent reports from two sources suggest that actor Jacob Elordi may be in talks to play James Bond in the next film. Showbiz 411 reported that director Denis Villeneuve and producers have met with Elordi, who is currently filming a new version of Wuthering Heights with Margot Robbie. It’s unclear if these rumors are true or simply repeated speculation.
Alongside the ongoing speculation, World of Reel reports that a source indicates Jacob Elordi is a leading contender for the role. However, these reports remain rumors until Amazon MGM Studios officially announces the casting for Bond 26. Given the importance of this casting decision, it’s unlikely to be revealed without a significant public announcement.
Why All James Bond Rumors Are Likely False

As a huge movie fan, I couldn’t escape the constant buzz about who would be the next James Bond for a while there! It felt like every other day there was a new name thrown around. But recently, things have quieted down a bit. Apparently, according to Justin Kroll at Deadline, we probably won’t get any official casting news until they actually have a script finalized for the next Bond film – and that likely won’t be until around mid-2026. So, it looks like we’ll all have to be patient!
It’s impossible to avoid wondering who will be the next James Bond after Daniel Craig, and the list of rumored actors is getting so long that it’s almost easier to list those not being considered.

Whether it’s established stars like Henry Cavill or up-and-coming actors such as Callum Turner, the next James Bond remains a mystery. There’s no clear favorite, and no indication that casting has even begun. In fact, official statements suggest the opposite – director Denis Villeneuve wants to choose the best actor for his vision of the character, not simply the most popular one online.
