Although Sony have offered silly money to keep him on, Daniel Craig has hinted that Spectre could well be his last gig for the British Secret Service, stating he would “slash his wrists” than do another 007 film.

So just in case, if you fancy placing a punt alongside your sports betting with netbet, you could make a few quid with one of these suitors.

Idris Elba

This Luther stars been a frontrunner for a while now, since 2005.  Daniel Craig himself has also championed Idris, who would be the first black actor to play Bond.  Could be big.

James Norton

The bookies have been slashing odds on him playing Bond, James Bond to around 18/1. His work in Happy Valley, Grantchester and War & Peace will have increased his chances.

Gillian Anderson

I love love this.  I love Gillian.  She retweeted a picture of herself in a fan-made 007 poster. Doubt it though…

Aidan Turner

Poldark has made Turner a household name with his Irish charm and manly good looks. A fan favourite, for sure.

Matthew Lewis

Can handle the pressure, as he has form with Harry Potter, where he need up as a heroic badass.  Bond could push Matthew Lewis to superstardom.

 

The James Bond series focuses on a fictional British Secret Service agent created in 1953 by writer Ian Fleming, who featured him in twelve novels and two short-story collections. Since Fleming’s death in 1964, eight other authors have written authorised Bond novels or novelizations: Kingsley Amis, Christopher Wood, John Gardner, Raymond Benson, Sebastian Faulks, Jeffery Deaver, William Boyd and Anthony Horowitz. The latest novel is Trigger Mortis by Anthony Horowitz, published in September 2015. Additionally Charlie Higson wrote a series on a young James Bond, and Kate Westbrookwrote three novels based on the diaries of a recurring series character, Moneypenny.
