Michelle Keegan and Maya Jama are reportedly the two frontrunners to become the next Bond Girl, with the spy thriller set to start filming later this year
Bookmakers suggest they are the strongest contenders for the prestigious gig with the iconic spy thriller poised to start filming later this year. The rumour mill has been working overtime after reports emerged this week that Aaron Taylor-Johnson has been offered the role of James Bond for the next instalment.
Coral spokesman John Hill added: "Many punters believe Michelle Keegan will join Aaron Taylor-Johnson in the next Bond film as the female lead. The Fool Me Once star is now odds-on in our betting to be involved. But we have also seen some outside support for Maya Jama. The Love Island presenter has had her odds slashed in half to be the female lead."
It's hinted that Michelle could join the ranks of iconic actors like Ursula Andress, Michelle Yeoh, Halle Berry and more recently Lea Seydoux, who have all played the secret agent's companions in the franchise. According to Gambling.com, their analysis of betting odds suggests that Michelle is one of the favourites to bag a role in the next film, which will be the first post-Daniel Craig era.
