One Of Hollywood's Biggest Stars Just Auditioned For James Bond
Robert Pattinson might be our next James Bond, according to new reports about the next James Bond film
As auditions for the upcoming James Bond movie continue, several high-profile actors have been screen-tested for the iconic role, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Robert Pattinson, known for his Twilight fame, tested for James Bond during the week of October 24, though his name has only now emerged, approximately two weeks after the auditions took place.
The upcoming Bond film is being directed by Denis Villeneuve, who previously collaborated with Pattinson on Dune: Part 3, leaving a strong impression. Pattinson's career since Twilight includes critically acclaimed films like The Lighthouse and Primetime, as well as blockbuster hits such as The Batman and The Odyssey.
Other actors also vying for the James Bond role include Nicholas Hoult, who played Lex Luthor in Superman, along with Callum Turner, Jack Lowden, and Josh O'Connor. An insider reportedly claims that Turner has already been cast, but this new information suggests that may not be the case. Currently, there is no official announcement regarding the casting of the next James Bond, and studios generally refrain from commenting on such speculation.
The film's theatrical release date is still unknown, but with Villeneuve completing work on Dune: Part 3, it is expected that an official casting decision will be made promptly.
