Everyone’s eager to learn who will be the next James Bond – and it’s worth being skeptical of any announcements today because of April Fools’ Day! – but Regé-Jean Page, who was previously a strong contender, has now spoken about the rumors linking him to the role of 007.
Like many actors who look good in a suit, Regé-Jean Page was an early favorite to play James Bond after becoming popular in the first season of Bridgerton. However, as new stars emerge, the frontrunner changes – recently, actors like Callum Turner and Aaron Taylor-Johnson have become more likely candidates.
The whole situation is strange, particularly because this kind of information is usually closely guarded in Hollywood and rarely gets out. It’s often based on hunches and speculation, so it’s reassuring to know the actors find the rumors just as bizarre as everyone else.
Page found the level of attention surrounding who would play James Bond to be odd and a bit excessive, telling Esquire UK that the whole situation felt ‘strange’ and ‘not normal’.

I focus on what’s practical and helps me do my job effectively, especially when it comes to creating content for my audience. A big part of that is staying centered and grounded, he explained.

The inside was really noisy and overwhelming, with a lot of people talking. I made a deliberate effort to stay calm and act normally despite the chaotic atmosphere.
Whether or not he’ll one day play James Bond, Page will soon star in the romantic comedy You, Me and Tuscany with Halle Bailey. He describes the film as a classic rom-com with surprisingly realistic and relatable characters.
He described a sense of loneliness they both felt, like they didn’t quite fit in. He explained it was about adults who grew up without their original families, but who created new ones and ultimately connected with each other.
You, Me and Tuscany is released in cinemas on 10 April.
The latest issue of Living Legends, a vibrant, full-color 100-page tribute to Harry Styles, is now available! You can purchase it at newsstands or online.
