There have been a lot of articles recently about who should be next to play famous 007 spy, James Bond.

Although Barbara Broccoli has recently said there are still discussions and there isn't even a script, it hasn't stopped media outlets form placing their bets.

So here are 5 actors who are in the running, and no this is not an attempt to just post pictures of good looking men 👀😂

Aaron Taylor-Johnson

Sam Heughan

Regé-Jean Page

James Norton

Out of the top 5, who do you think should play Bond? Is there anyone else you'd rather see take the role?

I like the idea of James Norton playing Bond, but I still always see him as the vicar in Grantchester. That'd be awkward! 

I'd personally love if they opened auditions and had someone "unknown" as the new James Bond. Although, I can imagine how many audition tapes they'd receive of people rolling from room to room with a Banana singing the James Bond theme tune!  :D

    I think Heany Coil aa I think he looks like a James Bond. Although I don't watch it my dad, grandad and sisters into the movie.

    I would have made a great James Bond if I had the looks, the hair, the muscles and the savoir faire. The car chases would have been a tad mundane however as I can only trundle along at 4 mph (max) on my mobility scooter, but if I upgraded to a 8 mph scooter the world would be shakened if not stirred!

    Go for it @janer1967! :)

    @katz23 Is your dad a big fan of the films? 

    @Steve_in_The_City Of course, you'll be upgraded to the cars! What's your fancy? Aston Martin? Jaguar?

    Not sure if my dad is a huge fan but he is super handsome, super cool, dresses super smart, works hard, a perfect gentleman, loves cars and is scared of nobody. He’s my super hero at 80 yrs of age. - I love him so ❤️

    I'm a big fan of the Bond films...but I do think they need a proper 'shake up' now.  

    Not sure any of the five suggestions would be a big enough change for me...  Though if I had to pick one, I'd probably go for Sam Heughan.

    I do feel with a big franchise like Bond, to have an actor from another big franchise is always a gamble. I feel the media would always compare the actor to a previous role.
