Now that we know a Denis Villeneuve-helmed Bond reboot is officially coming, there’s a very obvious next question: who’s gonna step into the role of 007? A new report from Variety suggests some of the top contenders, and the selection of actors in the running is fascinatingly mixed, at least in the sense that the character is traditionally played by a Brit. Australian-born Jacob Elordi, star of Guillermo del Toro’s upcoming Frankenstein for Netflix, is a strong pick and stands apart from the re
