Robert Pattinson and Nicholas Hoult will compete for the role of James Bond — an unexpected twist in casting
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
Hollywood media outlets have named new contenders for the role of Agent 007, further deepening the intrigue surrounding Daniel Craig’s successor.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Robert Pattinson and Nicholas Hoult have auditioned for the role of James Bond. Both actors are among the casting finalists alongside Callum Turner, Jack Lowden, and Josh O’Connor, whose names have already surfaced in press reports.
Meanwhile, Showbiz411 recently claimed that the role of Agent 007 had allegedly already gone to Turner. However, there is still no confirmation of this information: neither major Hollywood trades nor Amazon MGM itself have yet given any reason to consider the casting complete.
Denis Villeneuve will take the director’s chair for the next Bond film, while “Peaky Blinders” creator Steven Knight is penning the screenplay. David Heyman and Amy Pascal are handling production. The latter previously promised to unveil the new actor playing Agent 007 before the end of 2026.
