Speculation about who could be the next Bond is rampant, following reports that the shortlist for the iconic role has been whittled down to three: Harris Dickinson, Jacob Elordi and Tom Holland. Now, Holland has broken his silence on the situation, acknowledging it but choosing not to divulge too much information about what may be going on.

Holland, best known for playing Peter Parker in several films within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, admitted he was conscious of the rumours during an interview with celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay. “Listen, there’s speculation at the minute. We’ll keep it to a minimum for now,” he said, in a video posted on YouTube. “We’ll get there one day.”
