We now know who will direct the film (Dune filmmaker Denis Villeneuve) and who will write the script (Peaky Blinders’ Steven Knight), so it can only be a matter of time before we know who star in the 26th James Bond film.
It seems unlikely now that the much-anticipated move will now be released before 2027, a full six years since the last instalment No Time To Die, starring Daniel Craig.
Much of the talk has been about who will play Bond himself, but there’s also the rest of the cast to think about.
One of the most important roles to fill will be the so-called ‘Bond Girl’ (or girls) - a part that has evolved from being a fairly basic love interest to a fully-fledged foil for the world’s most famous spy.
Here are the 10 actresses that are currently reportedly being considered for the film - starting with the most likely.

10. Sophie Turner
Completing our list of Bond Girl frontrunners is Sophie Turner, who played Sansa Stark in the HBO fantasy series 'Game of Thrones'. She's since gone on to portray a young Jean Gray/Phoenix in the X-Men film series, showing she'd be more than a match for James Bond. | AFP via Getty Images
