NEW JAMES Bond theories are showing no sign of slowing down – but one theory suggests we could be close to getting an answer.
Since Daniel Craig hung up his designer suit and gun, speculation has been rife over who it could be.

Now, a new thought from fans suggests it could be Babygirl star, Harris Dickinson.
The 26-year-old actor set pulses racing this year starring alongside Nicole Kidman in the raunchy thriller, following an office romance between a high-flying CEO and a new recruit.
Across his career, he’s also appeared in Disney+’s A Murder At The End of The World, tragic wrestling drama The Iron Claw, and bizarre Oscar nominee Triangle of Sadness.
But a new theory suggests the British actor will now be heading towards the sharply-dressed man of mystery, becoming the eighth star to take on the role.
Pulp Kitchen Podcast puts forward the theory in their latest episode, noting that, despite his impressive CV and rising star power, he has no upcoming projects listed on his IMDb.
Presenter George Pundek notes that, for comparison other current favourites – including Josh O’Connor and Aaron Taylor-Johnson – both have a number of projects in the works.
They note that Dickinson is at “the right point of his fame” in order to jump into the franchise.
“He’s Harris Dicksinon, one of the hottest actors right now, literally and in terms of career,” George tells co-host James Briefel.
“To not have a single project registered, for an actor of Harris Dickinson’s caliber and starometer at the moment, I think that tells me, harriski says it’s gonna be the next James Bond.”
The new theory comes as more names are added to the growing list of potential 007s – from well-known faces like Henry Cavill to stars on the rise.
This weekend James Norton shut down rumours he’s set to fill the shoes of the famed spy while at the BAFTA Awards.
He told TV presenter Alex Zane “Whoever is deciding on these odds needs to get a new job. It’s so weird and bemusing.”
Lesser-known name Stuart Martin has reportedly become a favourite, with the Scottish actor being tipped to take on the role,
A source told the Mail: “Stuart is the name that has been discussed in Bond circles by those in the know.
“He is in serious contention. No-one will confirm this because Eon goes all out to deny and shy away from anything concerning casting, but it would be an amazing milestone to have a Scottish Bond again.”
