James Bond Fans Spot 1 Subtle Hint That This Favourite To Play 007 Has Finally Been Cast

Daniel Craig as James Bond in SkyfallFans of James Bond reckon there’s been a key update in the race to cast the next 007.And it’s all to do with watches.Over a year ago, it was widely reported in the tabloid press that Aaron Taylor-Johnson had been offered the part of Bond, though it was later claimed this deal was less certain than it first appeared.Since then, Aaron has continued to be linked with the role, but has remained consistently tight-lipped, sidestepping questions about it in numerous interviews.Earlier this week, it was revealed that the former Marvel star had become a global ambassador for the watch brand Omega.Aaron Taylor-JohnsonWhile this isn’t the sort of news that would make international headlines (no offence, Omega, we’re sure you do a lovely watch), this was notable as the Swiss brand has been associated with the James Bond franchise since Pierce Brosnan began wearing its timepieces in GoldenEye.Every Bond film since has featured an Omega watch – including all five of Daniel Craig’s – and this fact was not lost on Bond devotees when the news began circulating on social media…Looking more and more like we might have our next Bond… https://t.co/0glAJJ8F0G— Walker Wright (@WalkerWright86) May 23, 2025Subtle 👀 https://t.co/m5pLqj4dyEpic.twitter.com/HZgm20P6zX— Clem Fandango 🏴 🎗️🍀™ (@PapaCobo) May 22, 2025pic.twitter.com/tNDa3F125w— Colin Best (@ColinBest1978) May 22, 2025GOOD EVENING MR BOND.— Andrew McPyntos (@mcpyntos) May 23, 2025Prepping for new bond— Justin Vickery (@JjrdvJustin) May 22, 2025Suppose that means he got *that* job https://t.co/zmZyEesGlS— Michael Clarke (@mchlbrnclrk) May 22, 2025The next Bond confirmed then! https://t.co/NMW96rqUOz— ARR.
