10 Actors Who Could Be The Next James Bond

1. Jon Hamm

Jon Hamm The A Team
20th Century Fox

Forget his age, forget the fact he's American, and forget that his ascent to fame involved playing the advertising industry's approximation of 007 already, Jon Hamm is not only the James Bond we deserve, but the James Bond we need.

If producers decide to hit the reset button on the franchise and make international espionage fun again, Jon Hamm is the man to make it bearable for us. The man's looks are above reproach, it's almost impossible to imagine him not wearing a suit, his hair is deserving of song and prose, he never looks as natural as when he's holding a drink, he beds the world's most beautiful women without a single eye in the audience being rolled, and Daniel Radcliffe even helped come up with a British accent.

Jon Hamm is how every single James Bond fan would play the role if they were given the chance, and if the 26th instalment of the franchise wants to connect with them, then giving the part to the personification of Bond fandom is how to do it.
