Next James Bond – Beatles biopic star new favourite in 007 race | Films | Entertainment

Aaron Taylor-Johnson (9/1), Jacob Elordi (5/1) and Callum Turner (4/1) have been the bookies’ favourites for quite some time. But now there’s a new one and he’s currently shooting Sam Mendes’ four biopic films about The Beatles back-to-back.

According to Oddschecker, Harris Dickinson is now 3/1 and the current bookies’ favourite to be cast as the next James Bond. The 29-year-old star of The King’s Man, Triangle of Sadness and Babygirl is playing John Lennon in all four official Beatles biopics. Take it all with a pinch of salt, but will the producers really cast someone who’s already playing a major historical figure in a couple of years? Post-Barbara Broccoli, it’s possible. During her tenure, highly unlikely.
