The lucky actors who replace Daniel Craig as James Bond

Harris Dickinson, 29, has emerged as a leading name, sources told us. The London-born actor has already flirted with espionage The king’s man and demonstrated the range of comedy and drama in Triangle of sadness, Look how they run And The Iron Claw.

Although he has publicly said he is more comfortable with smaller productions, his “versatility and relative lack of franchise baggage are seen as advantages” should Amazon seek a fresh start, a production source said.

Tom Holland, also 29, is another favorite for the role of the secret agent. The British actor’s worldwide fame through Marvel’s Spider Man films offer clear commercial appeal, but also pose a potential problem.

Holland remains closely associated with Peter Parker and is expected to continue in that role through future Marvel projects, raising questions about whether audiences would accept him as Bond at the same time.

Jacob Elordi, 28, rounds out the trio that is reportedly on Amazon’s internal wish list. The Australian actor has risen quickly through projects like Euphoria And Salt burn and has publicly described bond speculation as “beautiful.” Although he is not British, Elordi would not be the first non-Briton to play Bond, after George Lazenby. His relative lack of action experience could suit a younger, less fully formed version of the spy.
