Idris Elba is back among the favourites to replace Daniel Craig become the new James Bond.
The 49-year old, who was awarded an OBE in 2016 for services to drama, has reportedly held new talks with producers after market research suggested he would be a good fit for 007 - rather than as a villain as previously mooted.
Craig, meanwhile, stood down from the role following the release of 2021's No Time To Die - his fifth appearance in the role.
