What the expert says...
Odds still offered on the next Bond with Aaron Taylor-Johnson leading the market
Aaron Taylor-Johnson is still the favourite to be the next James Bond with bookies continuing to offer odds on who will play the iconic role next.
Taylor-Johnson has long been favourite to star as Bond with bookmakers making him the odds-on favourite earlier this year and the market had originally been pulled after rumours that he had the role.
Now though the market is back open with the role not officially sealed and there are now a whole host of actors who feature in the market to star as the famous spy.

British popstar Dua Lipa also features in the odds to be the next James Bond theme singer with odds continued to be offered on that market as well.
Lipa sits behind Lana Del Rey who has previously told reporters that she had offered a Bond theme for the franchise earlier but was rejected.
It may well be that Barbara Broccoli and other Bond producers like the idea of a Turner and Lipa pairing for Bond and theme with Turner himself sitting in as third favourite to play Bond next.
| Next James Bond theme song artist | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Lana Del Rey | 9/4 | 30.8% |
| Dua Lipa | 5/2 | 28.6% |
| Chappell Roan | 11/4 | 26.7% |
| Raye | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| Lady Gaga | 5/1 | 16.7% |
