Aaron Taylor-Johnson

The Kraven the Hunter actor was previously said to have been handed a "formal offer" to play Bond, but his odds of playing 007 have drifted in recent times.

Taylor-Johnson himself has remained tight-lipped about playing the spy.

The 36-year-old star told Rolling Stone UK in 2024: "I don't feel like I need to have a future drawn out for me. I feel like whatever's drawn out for me, I can f****** do better."
