Next James Bond Betting Odds: Who Could Replace Daniel Craig as 007?

With Daniel Craig having stepped away from the role, speculation over the next James Bond has continued for several years.

The SportsCasting experts have released betting odds on who could replace him as 007.

With the role having passed between only a small number of actors who have played Bond, the history of the franchise provides useful context when considering who might take over next.

Next James Bond Betting Odds – The Full List

The traders have priced up a wide range of contenders in the ongoing race to become the next James Bond.

The market remains fluid, with several familiar names near the top of the betting.

Callum Turner Favourite To Be The Next James Bond

Callum Turner currently sits at the head of the market at 10/11, with SportsCasting traders installing him as the odds-on favourite to become the next James Bond.

His position reflects how neatly he fits the franchise’s likely direction rather than any single breakout moment.

Turner combines blockbuster exposure from the Fantastic Beasts films with more grounded, contemporary work in The Capture, before stepping into clear leading-man territory in Masters of the Air.

That range suggests he can move comfortably between spectacle and restraint, depending on what the next Bond iteration demands.

What sets Turner apart is adaptability.

He arrives without an overpowering screen persona, making him a flexible option if the franchise is aiming for a reset rather than a dramatic reinvention.

That balance explains why he continues to set the benchmark in the betting.

Could Aaron Taylor-Johnson Be The Next 007?

Aaron Taylor-Johnson is priced at 9/2 and remains one of the most established names in the next James Bond odds.

Unlike some contenders, his case is built on visibility rather than projection.

He has led major studio releases such as Bullet Train and featured prominently in Tenet, while earlier roles in Kick-Ass and Avengers: Age of Ultron made him a familiar presence to global audiences.

Away from franchise work, Nocturnal Animals showed a willingness to take on darker, less conventional material.

Taylor-Johnson’s odds reflect how long he has remained in the conversation.

He does not feel like a reactionary choice driven by recent headlines, and his continued position near the top of the market suggests he is still viewed as a viable option if producers opt for a recognisable, proven lead.

Australian Heartthrob Jacob Elordi A Leading Bond Contender

Jacob Elordi currently sits as the 5/1 third favourite in the next James Bond betting market, with traders responding to his rising profile and growing visibility in major film projects.

His recent, steamy turn in the controversial Wuthering Heights remake, alongside Bond girl candidate Margot Robbie, has kept him firmly in the public eye.

This role reinforced the sense that he is moving into a leading-man phase of his career.

Elordi also has an existing connection to Amazon through previous roles, which adds an interesting industry angle given Amazon’s growing involvement in the Bond franchise.

While he represents a slight shift from the more traditional Bond profile in terms of age and background, his position in the market reflects how casting conversations continue to evolve as studios look towards a new generation of leading men.

Theo James Remains Firmly In The James Bond Picture

Theo James is available at 9/1 and continues to sit just behind the leading trio in the betting.

After gaining mainstream recognition through the Divergent series, James reshaped his profile with more character-focused roles in The White Lotus and The Gentlemen.

Those performances leaned less on spectacle and more on control and presence, qualities often associated with more traditional interpretations of Bond.

James’ odds reflect that positioning.

He is not seen as the safest option, nor the most radical, but as a candidate whose on-screen persona already overlaps with the established image of 007.

If familiarity and tone become priorities in the casting decision, his name remains relevant.
