Aaron Taylor-Johnson remains odds-on to be the next James Bond as bookies continue to offer odds
As we move into July we're still waiting for the announcement of who will be the next James Bond and UK Betting Sites continue to offer odds on who will play the iconic role next.
British actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson remains the odds-on favourite at 1/2 to replace Daniel Craig as the next 007 after various reports said the role was sealed earlier this year.
Fast forward months later though and the role is still unconfirmed which raises question marks around whether it will be Taylor-Johnson who plays Bond next or another man in the market.
Henry Cavill previously auditioned for the role of Bond back in 2005 for Casino Royale but ultimately lost to Daniel Craig and 20 years on could finally take on the job.
Cavill is the second favourite in the market at 2/1 to play Bond next but it seemed like at the time of his audition it was producer Barbara Broccoli who chose Craig instead which could be a stumbling block again.
| Next James Bond | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Aaron Taylor-Johnson | 1/2 | 66.7% |
| Henry Cavill | 2/1 | 33.3% |
| Jonathan Bailey | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| James Norton | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| Taron Egerton | 6/1 | 14.3% |
What the expert says...
Bridgerton's Jonathan Bailey moves into 4/1 to play the iconic role next
Bridgerton star Jonathan Bailey has been a big mother in the market to play Bond with the series hot on everyone's lips again following the latest season's release.
Bailey has starred as Viscount Anthony Bridgerton in the show but only featured in three of the eight episodes in Season Three with his role taking a step back.
He could though appear more on screens across the globe with his odds of playing Bond slashed from 12/1 into 4/1 now.

Chappell Roan now clear favourite to perform next Bond theme
American singer Chappell Roan has come from nowhere into favourite to perform the next James Bond theme with bookies changing that market right around.
Lady Gaga and Dua Lipa had long been joint favourites in the market to play one of the biggest theme songs in movie history but that has swapped around with Roan now 13/8.
Lana Del Rey is just behind Roan as 5/2 second favourite following her admission of previously putting a song forward for Bond in the past but she was ultimately turned down.
| Next James Bond Theme Artist | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Chappell Roan | 13/8 | 38.1% |
| Lana Del Rey | 5/2 | 28.6% |
| Dua Lipa | 10/3 | 23.1% |
| Lady Gaga | 10/3 | 23.1% |
| Raye | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| SZA | 7/1 | 12.5% |
