9. Aaron Taylor-Johnson

Aaron Taylor-Johnson is no stranger to larger-than-life roles. He’s starred in two Kick-Ass movies, teamed up with Godzilla, and now he’s set to bring Marvel Comics’ Kraven The Hunter to the big screen. The actor, who also stole the show as Quicksilver in Avengers: Age of Ultron, is a combination of youthful spirit and an action-hero bod that makes us dream about what he could bring to James Bond.

Imagine him stepping out of an Aston Martin, tuxedo impeccably tailored, a dangerous glint in his eye. Not that I have imagined that 100 times over myself, but you see what I’m saying. Taylor-Johnson has a knack for making any role his own, and I’d love to see how he’d reinvent Bond’s legacy with his edgy charisma and effortless style.

But the best part? Taylor-Johnson can capture the complexities of a character like Bond. We’ve seen him tackle heavy roles like his Golden Globe-winning performance in Nocturnal Animals, which means he could dig deep into the psyche of James Bond. Whether it’s pulling off daredevil stunts or digging into Bond’s complicated relationships and moral dilemmas, Aaron Taylor-Johnson is a triple threat who would breathe fresh air into the franchise and look absolutely amazing doing it.
