Theo James: The New Bond? Suave Star Shines at Milan Fashion Week

Theo James looked suave as he stepped out for the Dolce & Gabbana fashion show during the Milan Menswear Spring/Summer 2026 Fashion Week on Saturday

BOND-GATE: Theo James Stuns at Milan Fashion Week Amid Speculation About Taking Over Iconic Role

In a fashion show that was truly fit for a spy, Theo James turned heads as he walked the catwalk at Dolce & Gabbana's Milan Menswear Spring/Summer 2026 Fashion Week. The 40-year-old heartthrob, rumored to be in the running to play the next James Bond, looked dapper in a sleek black suit, paired with a black shirt and classic black loafers. But it was his striking tortoiseshell sunglasses that really stole the show.

This stylish display comes as rumors swirl about who will take over the iconic role of 007 after Daniel Craig's departure from the franchise. And according to bookies, Theo James is currently the clear front-runner to step into Bond's shoes. The Divergent star has surged ahead of other contenders, including Superman actor Henry Cavill, Tom Hardy, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and James Norton.

The actor, 40, who is rumoured to be in the running for the next James Bond, cut a dapper figure in a sleek black suit for the occasion.

The question on everyone's mind is: can Theo James bring a fresh perspective to the role that has been played by Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan, and Daniel Craig before him? The Brit has previously impressed in morally ambiguous roles in shows like The White Lotus and movies like Guy Ritchie's The Gentlemen.

But don't just take our word for it – Theo James himself has played down speculation linking him to the part. In an interview with The Guardian last year, he quipped that it "probably wouldn't be me." However, his sizzling performance at Milan Fashion Week suggests that he might be warming up to the idea of suiting up as Bond.

Meanwhile, Amazon bosses are reportedly considering locations for the next Bond film, which is expected to be released in 2027. According to insiders, Liverpool is a strong contender to host the action-packed adventure – much to the dismay of Bond purists who fear that Amazon's takeover of the franchise will lead to drastic changes.

An insider close to the project told The Scholarly Note.com: "This will no doubt irk Bond fans who already worry about Amazon taking over the 007 franchise. But Liverpool is a well-known alternative to London for filmmakers. It has appeared in everything from The Batman to Captain America and Harry Potter movies, doubling up as international cities."

The source added that it doesn't necessarily mean the story will be set in Liverpool – although eagle-eyed Merseysiders will no doubt spot their city centre in the background.

As the speculation surrounding Theo James' potential casting continues to swirl, one thing is clear: the next Bond film is going to be a wild ride. Stay tuned for more updates on this explosive news!
