Aaron Taylor-Johnson fuels James Bond announcement rumours as unveils new look | Films | Entertainment

Taking to his Instagram stories, Taylor-Johnson posted a picture of his himself with his long hair and beard with the caption “from one look…”

This was followed by another snap captioned “to another”, with he star sporting short locks and stubble in the gym.

Considering all the Bond speculation around him, plus the fact that he’s just teased a new look that’s exactly what he would need to play 007, suggests that an official announcement could be imminent.

Assuming there’s an official new 007 announcement in the coming weeks or months, we’d also be finding out Bond 26’s director and release date.

Our best bet would be that the latter could be as early as autumn 2025 in EON Productions’ traditional late October slot, or the following year.

Whatever the case, it’s looking like the wait is probably almost over for Bond fans who’ve been waiting three years since the release of No Time To Die for news of the new star.
