Joe Alwyn Expresses Interest in Playing James Bond

The actor, known for 'The Brutalist,' responded to speculation about the next 007 role during the 2025 Oscars.

Joe Alwyn, 34, shared his interest in playing James Bond during a red carpet interview at the 2025 Academy Awards.
Alwyn, who starred in the Oscar-nominated film 'The Brutalist,' joked that he would take the role 'if you're offering' and remarked on his preference for both shaken and stirred martinis.
The James Bond franchise is currently in transition, with creative control recently shifting from longtime producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson to Amazon MGM Studios.
Producers have yet to announce a successor to Daniel Craig, who stepped down after his final Bond film, 'No Time to Die,' in 2021.
Other actors rumored or speculated to be contenders for the role include Regé-Jean Page, Tom Hardy, Idris Elba, and Henry Cavill, though no official decisions have been made.
