Henry Cavill +175 FAVOURITE to be the next James Bond after leaving Witcher and Superman roles!

Henry Cavill is now the betting favourite to be the next James Bond after Superman and Witcher departures

Henry Cavill is the new favourite for bookmakers to be the next James Bond after leaving The Witcher and Superman in the past month.

The British actor has been linked with the James Bond role in the past and the stars may well have aligned for him to slot into the 007 role.

Sportsbooks now make Cavill the +175 outright favourite for the role with a 36% chance of taking over, according to the latest odds.

The rest of the market has stayed relatively similar in the past week, with Aaron Taylor-Johnson remaining the second favourite in the betting.

Tom Hardy has always been there or thereabouts in the betting and stays that way with odds of 6/1 to be the next Bond.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson was the big market mover in recent weeks

Aaron Taylor-Johnson's odds to be the next Bond had dropped massively in the past fortnight with rumours around a "secret screen test" for the role.

Taylor-Johnson was +5000 last month to take over from Daniel Craig next but then moved to +150 outright favourite for the Bond role.

He's since drifted slightly in the betting but bookies still give him a 33% chance of being the next Bond.

Bookies give odds of +350 that the James Bond franchise goes to streaming only

The movie viewing market is changing constantly and there are odds on the Bond franchise going streaming only in 2023.

The latest betting odds say there's a 22% chance that James Bond will be streaming only going forward with the movies having a spell on Amazon Prime Video earlier this year.

At odds of +350, some oddsmakers predict there's a decent chance that the franchise goes to streaming only but it may need Box Office figures to keep making the films.
