Now that the dust has settled on Daniel Craig’s run as James Bond, movie fans are eager to learn who will play the iconic super spy next. Plenty of the U. K.’s most popular leading men have been linked to the role in recent years, but the Denis-Villeneuve-directed movie has still yet to begin casting. The predictions market Polymarket has laid out the odds of who will be the next Bond if the powers that be cast the actor before June 30, 2026. (There is currently a 42% chance that the role remains vacant through that date.) Videos by PopCulture. com Continue below to see the top odds around which actors could play 007 next, per Polymarket. 4. Harris Dickinson (6%) London native Harris Dickinson, 29, is one of the most acclaimed young actors working right now. He’s pulled off big roles in critical favorites like The Iron Claw, Babygirl and Triangle of Sadness, while also jumping into big studio projects like The King’s Man, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil and the upcoming four-part Beatles biopic series. While the Beatles movies will keep him busy for the foreseeable future, there’s still a bit of time before the 007 flick shoots, so Dickinson might be available by then. 3. Aaron Taylor-Johnson (6%) Aaron Taylor-Johnson has been a near-constant name linked to the role. The 35-year-old star has plenty of experience with big-studio action fare (Kraven the Hunter, Bullet Train, Kick-Ass, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Tenet, The Fall Guy). It’s a risk to put a star into a high-profile franchise role like James Bond, but Taylor-Johnson has proven he can reliably pull it off. 2. Tom Hardy (6%) The closest thing to a household name on this list is another star with big-budget movie experience: Tom Hardy. He’s led or supported in massive pictures including Mad Max: Fury Road, The Dark Knight Rises, Inception, Dunkirk and three Venom movies. While he’s older than other top prospects at 48 years old, he could be perfect if Villeneuve is looking for a mature, grizzled leading man. 1. Callum Turner (26%).
