Daniel Craig has said that the 25th James Bond movie, No Time to Die, will be his fifth and final movie. So obviously the question on everyone’s mind is who will replace him?

In the UK, where betting is legal, Oddschecker have reported that 72% of all bets have been placed on Shelby family leader replacing Daniel Craig in the role.

Cillian is now at 3/1, with Idris Elba on 4/1 and Tom Hiddleston at 5/1. 

The star, who’s fifth season of the Peaky Blinders, has just hit the TV screens has said: “There’s two things I’ll say about [it],” he told The Guardian.

“Firstly, there’s a whole other industry which is completely separate from the film side of things and that’s the bookies. The second thing I’d say is that I think it should be a woman, which rules me out.”
