- Raye leads predictions for the next theme song.

## Summary

Bookmakers have made Jack Lowden the leading contender to become the next James Bond as screen tests for the role are expected to begin. The odds reflect betting markets rather than a confirmed casting decision, with Amazon MGM, director Denis Villeneuve and the producers yet to announce who will play 007.

Oddschecker gives Lowden an implied 62 per cent chance, ahead of Callum Turner at 25 per cent and Josh O’Connor at 13 per cent. BetOnline lists Margaret Qualley as the leading choice for a Bond girl role at 33 per cent, while Raye leads the theme-song artists at 50 per cent; Kalshi also puts Lowden first among its Bond predictions, at 64 per cent.
