The topic has resulted in a heated discourse. There have been multiple surveys and polls for the same. The rumors from the industry bringing up names of stars who are in talks to play Bond, add fuel to the fire.

Tom Hardy and Henry Cavill are the two names that come up more than the others. But the public opinion on the matter is rather different.

This is probably the most discussed question on social media lately. The intrigue on the subject is the kind that is not seen about many things these days.

A role like this can take one’s career to greater heights. But there are several names going around. Unsurprisingly, most of them are stars from the superhero realms of Marvel and DC.

A post from BLURYANGEL(@BLURYANGEL) on X (formerly Twitter) asked the aforementioned question and put four Marvel and DC stars against each other.
Henry CavillHenry Cavill
Henry Cavill is one of the front runners in this race. The Superman star had previously auditioned for the role of 007 in the 2006 release, Casino Royale.

 The film was Daniel Craig’s debut film as a British spy and launched him into worldwide fame. Cavill’s young age became the reason for his disqualification.

Tom Hardy is another name that pops up often. Hardy’s physique combined with charismatic looks and killer acting skills make him a top contender for the role.

Robert Pattinson has proven himself capable of thrill and action roles with his recent portrayal of Batman. He might end up being the one who gets the keys to the Aston Martin DB5.
Idris ElbaIdris Elba
Idris Elba has been a popular choice to play Bond for a long time. The Luther star would make a great James Bond, there’s no two ways about it.
