Rumors suggest that Amazon MGM Studios has offered Jacob Elordi the role of James Bond in the upcoming Bond 26 film directed by Denis Villeneuve and scripted by Steven Knight. Elordi, a 28-year-old Australian actor, is globally famous and has had a successful run in various projects. However, the tradition of casting relatively unknown actors for the role of Bond may work against Elordi, who is already an acclaimed performer. Additionally, Elordi's physical stature and the tone of his previous roles may not align with the traditional image of James Bond. Bookmakers currently favor other actors for the role, indicating that Elordi's current status as a rising star may not fit the requirements of the iconic character.
