Callum Turner Joins Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Joint Favourite
The race to be the next James Bond has taken another twist with Callum Turner now joint favourite alongside Aaron Taylor-Johnson at 2/1.
Bookmakers have slashed Turner’s odds in the past fortnight, making him the latest name to sit at the top of the Bond market.
Turner, best known for his roles in Fantastic Beasts and Masters of the Air, is reportedly on the radar of casting directors as the Bond producers prepare to lock in their leading man.
He now leapfrogs Henry Cavill, long linked with the role, who has drifted slightly to 10/3.
With Steven Knight confirmed to pen the script and Denis Villeneuve attached to direct, speculation continues to intensify on who will don the iconic tuxedo next.
