Josh O’Connor Tipped as Next James Bond Amid MCU’s Jean Grey Rumors

A wave of speculation has recently surfaced regarding who will don the iconic tuxedo as the next James Bond. Industry experts are leaning towards Josh O'Connor, the 34-year-old British actor known for his roles in “The Crown” and “God's Own Country.” O'Connor has the acting chops and physical likeness to the Bond of Ian Fleming's novels, making him a strong contender for the role.

This comes as rumors swirl about Sadie Sink, the breakout star from “Stranger Things” and “The Whale,” being the frontrunner to play X-Men mutant Jean Grey in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Jeff Sneider reported on The Hot Mic podcast that Sink could debut as Jean Grey as early as 2026's “Avengers: Doomsday,” indicating that the casting decisions are already in motion, although they could still change.

If confirmed, Sink's casting would mark the first new X-Men role in the live-action MCU. Both Famke Janssen and Sophie Turner have previously portrayed Jean Grey in Fox's “X-Men” films, and Sink's potential involvement suggests Marvel may be targeting a younger demographic for their X-Men lineup. Sneider also hinted at a November 2027 release for the first standalone “X-Men” film, set to follow “Avengers: Secret Wars” in May 2027, kicking off the “Mutant Saga.”

My Impressions: The prospect of Josh O'Connor as James Bond is thrilling. His nuanced performances in “The Crown” and “God's Own Country” showcase his ability to embody complex characters, which would translate well to the multifaceted role of Bond. Meanwhile, Sadie Sink's rumored casting as Jean Grey brings a fresh and youthful energy to the MCU. Having proven her talent in emotionally charged roles, Sink could add depth to the beloved character of Jean Grey.

Do you think Josh O'Connor and Sadie Sink are the right choices for James Bond and Jean Grey? How do you think their casting will shape the future of these iconic roles?
