Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Reg&eacute;-Jean Page, Henry Cavill, and more are all in the running to be the next James Bond.

<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/movies-turning-10-in-2022-anniversary" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daniel Craig</a> has officially left the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/rege-jean-page-the-gray-man-dungeons-and-dragons-bridgerton-netflix" target="_blank" rel="noopener">James Bond</a> franchise, and there is a lot of conversation happening on who will be the next 007. And really: who knows? But here at L&rsquo;OFFICIEL, we have gathered some actors (and actresses) who have been creating a lot of buzz as to who will be filling those shoes. The casting process can take some time, there is onscreen testing with other actors where directors look for chemistry; and depending on where James Bond&rsquo;s character arch continues to grow, age could have another impact on who may or may not play the role. However, whoever the next incarnation of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/007-bond-girl-outfits-shopping-2021-fall-no-time-to-die" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bond</a> will be, there are already frontrunners who will play an incredible agent.

Saint Laurent, Berlin premiere.

According to <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/tv/20563304/aaron-taylor-johnson-james-bond/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Sun </a>the Avengers: Age of Ultron&nbsp;actor <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/bullet-train-red-carpet-looks-style-joey-king-brad-pitt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Aaron Taylor-Johnson</a> was performing a screen test for the role and apparently he was great. Perhaps he could be the next James Bond?

Lashana Lynch was in the conversation to play the next James Bond, however, producer Barbara Broccoli has specifically stated that the next 007 will not be a woman. Given that Lynch is already a character on <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/kate-middleton-channels-princess-diana-dress-no-time-to-die-premiere" target="_blank" rel="noopener">No Time to Die</a>, there could be the possibility for a spin-off where the story focuses on her.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/emma-stone-responds-andrew-garfield-spider-man-no-way-home-appearance" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Amazing Spider-Man</a> alum has the credits to support the action-adventure movies. His charming onscreen presence will make him a great option to take over James Bond.

Could <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/harry-styles-olivia-wilde-relationship-timeline" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harry Styles</a> be the next James Bond? Maybe. The actor has been proving himself in the acting industry with his recent films like&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/david-dawson-my-policeman-harry-styles-emma-corrin-gay-romance-period-drama" target="_blank" rel="noopener">My Policeman</a> and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/new-movies-tv-shows-watch-september-2022" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Don't Worry Darling</a>, perhaps we can expect more of his music and acting in the 007 franchise.&nbsp;

Nicholas Hoult in Giorgio Armani.

The 32-year-old <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/charlize-theron-required-security-on-set-filming-mad-max-fury-road-tom-hardy-fight" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mad Max: Fury Road</a> actor looks great in a suit. And he will look great on the set for Bond. Nicholas Hoult has been acting in action-adventure films since his days as Beast in the Marvel films. His charm, charisma, and elegance will make him a great choice to play the role.&nbsp;

Damson Idris.

With all the rumors that had been swirling around the next James Bond, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/damson-idris-tiff-winter-2018-farming-movie" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Damson Idris</a> was already part of the conversation with Broccoli. And his action roles in movies like Outside the Wire will make him a great choice to play the part.&nbsp;

The role of James Bond has traditionally been played by a British actor, and although <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/miles-teller-iconic-roles-upcoming-movies-top-gun-maverick-the-offer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Miles Teller</a> is not, his name has been thrown into the hat of options. He's another actor who has taken roles in the action realm, with credits that span from the Divergent&nbsp;series to&nbsp;Top Gun: Maverick.&nbsp;

With <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/everything-we-know-about-bridgerton-season-3-cast-plot-details-trailer-netflix" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bridgerton</a> being his major TV role, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/rege-jean-page-the-gray-man-dungeons-and-dragons-bridgerton-netflix" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Reg&eacute;-Jean Page</a> is now leading in major films. The actor will be appearing in the anticipated Dungeons and Dragons movie which is expected to be released in 2023. Although he is only just building up his acting credits among the titans of Hollywood, he would make a great Bond.&nbsp;

The <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/emma-stone-responds-andrew-garfield-spider-man-no-way-home-appearance" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Spider-Man: No Way Home</a> star has been in conversations for the role on a few occasions. He even pitched the idea of a young Bond reboot to studio executives.

Henry Cavill has been in conversation to play the role for more than a decade. Rumor has it that he lost a role in the film&nbsp;300 due to his focus on getting the role of James Bond.&nbsp;

Critics Choice Awards 2021: John Boyega in Louis Vuitton.

The&nbsp;Star Wars&nbsp;alum <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/men/jo-malone-john-boyega" target="_blank" rel="noopener">John Boyega</a> has a huge potential of becoming the next James Bond. He already carries a number of credits to back up his contribution to the franchise. The Pacific Rim: Uprising actor could take on the lead and become the first Black James Bond.&nbsp;
