Theo James Looks Suave at Dolce & Gabbana Show Amid James Bond Speculation

Theo James looked suave as he stepped out for the Dolce & Gabbana fashion show during the Milan Menswear Spring/Summer 2026 Fashion Week on Saturday.

The actor, 40, who is rumoured to be in the running for the next James Bond, cut a dapper figure in a sleek black suit for the occasion.

He paired the look with a black shirt and classic black loafers, finishing it off with a pair of striking tortoiseshell sunglasses.

Theo looked relaxed and in high spirits as he posed for photos at the glamorous event in the heart of the Italian city.

It comes after it was revealed that Theo James is currently the bookies’ favourite to step into the iconic role of James Bond, with odds of 5/2. 

The Divergent star has surged ahead of other contenders, including Superman actor Henry Cavill, Tom Hardy, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and James Norton.

The legendary 007 character was first brought to life by Sean Connery in 1962’s Dr. No and has since been portrayed by several leading men. 

Most recently, Daniel Craig fronted the franchise, starring in five Bond films from 2006 to 2021.

Ever since No Time to Die marked Craig’s final outing, speculation has been rife about who will take up the mantle next – and it seems Theo is firmly in the lead.

The Brit has previously impressed while playing rogue, morally ambiguous characters somewhat similar to Bond in both The White Lotus and and Guy Ritchie’s The Gentlemen.

But James has played down speculation linking him to the part, telling The Guardian last year that it ‘probably wouldn’t be me’.

While she was planning the new Bond movie, Barbara Broccoli’s favourite was thought to be The Divergent star Aaron Taylor-Johnson, 34.

He momentarily moved down bookies’ lists after Amazon’s purchase of the franchise, but recently soared back up them after signing a deal with Omega, the official watch provider of Bond.

He was also endorsed by former 007 PIerce Brosnan, 72, during an appearance on The Jonathan Ross show last month.

‘I think he (Aaron) would make a very fine Bond,’ Brosnan said.

‘He was actually in one of the movies I made called The Greatest. This young man we cast as The Greatest.

‘He was so impressive then. He just had this charisma, he had this presence… he would be so good. But there’s many men on the list, I’m sure.’

As The Daily Mail reported, the plan is for the new Bond to be a ‘straight up’ reboot.

There is reportedly set to be no explanation of how the special agent is still alive, no multiverse of Bonds and no attempt to go back to the 1960s for a vintage Bond.

Amazon bosses are currently said to be considering locations in which to set the much-anticipated new film, which experts predicted is likely to be released at the end of next year or in 2027.

Due to a filming ban being imposed in Central London next year, new locations are reportedly being considered – with Liverpool a frontrunner, according to The Sun.

An insider told the publication: ‘This will no doubt irk Bond purists who already fear Amazon taking over the 007 franchise may lead to them making big changes.

‘But Liverpool is a well-known alternative to London for film-makers.

‘It has appeared in everything from The Batman to Captain America and Harry Potter movies, doubling up as international cities.’

The source added that it doesn’t necessarily mean the story will be set in Liverpool – though eagle-eyed Merseysiders will no doubt spot their city centre in the background.

MailOnline contacted Amazon for comment about the possibility of Liverpool being the setting for the next Bond.
