Next James Bond odds – Netflix star gains on Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Henry Cavill | Films | Entertainment

We’re now halfway through 2024 and still awaiting that official next James Bond announcement.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson continues to be the bookies’ favourite on 4-5 having been hotly rumoured to be replacing Daniel Craig as 007 earlier this year.

Just behind him is Casino Royale audition runner-up Henry Cavill on 5-2.

However, Netflix Bridgerton star Jonathan Bailey has been cut from 10-1 down to 4-1.

Coral’s John Hill said: “Bridgerton star Jonathan Bailey has attracted strong interest in our next James Bond betting over the last 48 hours and if the support continues, it may not be long before we have a new favourite for the role!”

The bookies’ added: “Aaron Taylor-Johnson is still the favourite to replace Daniel Craig but he is remaining tight-lipped about any approach he has had for the job. One thing is for sure, this no longer looks like a one-horse race, as it is clear that Bailey is now seen as a strong contender.”

Full list of contenders: 4-5 Aaron Taylor-Johnson, 5-2 Henry Cavill, 4-1 Jonathan Bailey, 5-1 James Norton, 6-1 Taron Egerton, 6-1 Leo Woodall, 7-1 Theo James, 8-1 Jonathan Bailey, 8-1 Damson Idris, 10-1 Paul Mescal,10-1 Rege-Jean Page.”
