Tom Holland expressed his desire to step into the iconic role of James Bond during a recent episode of Variety’s Awards Circuit podcast. The 27-year-old actor humorously mentioned that he “looks pretty good in a suit” and enthusiastically conveyed his eagerness to secure the coveted position. Tom playfully added that he would be a “really short James Bond,” standing at 5 feet 6 inches. Currently engrossed in promoting his new Apple TV film, Cherry, and filming the next Spider-Man installment, Tom joined the ranks of potential successors to Daniel Craig.

This announcement follows Regé-Jean Page, the 31-year-old heartthrob from Bridgerton, subtly hinting at his suitability for the James Bond role. The speculations on the next 007 have included prominent names like Idris Elba, Sam Heughan from Outlander, James Norton, and Tom Hardy.In January, Regé-Jean emerged as a strong contender in the race, with Ladbrokes acknowledging him as a frontrunner. The anticipation for Daniel Craig’s final performance as the 007 agent in “N.T.T.D,” the 25th film in the franchise, has intensified the discussions surrounding his successor.
