James Bond screen tests are imminent
Amazon MGM Studios may soon have its James Bond in its sights, according to a new report.
James Bond screen tests are reportedly imminent, according to a report from The Hollywood Reporter. Borys Kit, THR's correspondent, is particularly elated by this news after months of casting rumors and support from actors like Gary Oldman and Saoirse Ronan. The tests are set to begin in London this weekend, with early reports suggesting they may start as early as Friday.
The competition appears to have thinned out, with only three to five actors being tested for "stunts, camera presence, and dialogue." While Jack Lowden and Callum Turner are reportedly in the mix, sources suggest that Elordi and O'Connell are less likely to fit the role. Amazon has confirmed that the search for the next James Bond is underway, but they have declined to comment on specific details during the casting process.
