Frontrunners for the role have long included Elba, alongside Henry Cavill, Tom Hardy and Bridgerton’s Rege-Jean Page.
And British bookies agree, with Ladbrokes telling Express online today: “Punters are torn between Cavill and Elba as things stand, and while the latter has repeatedly ruled himself out of the running, punters seemingly think he could be calling 007 chiefs’ bluff.”
Ladbrokes have Cavill on 2/1, followed by Elba on 7/2, Page on 9/2 and Hardy on 5/1.
Elba himself has repeatedly started to distance himself from the role, saying he wants to concentrate on his DJing and other film projects but another report actually revealed his close relationship with the future of the franchise.
