Amazon's James Bond casting wishlist revealed including major breakout star
Amazon MGM are reportedly getting closer to their next James Bond with three huge names in the running to replace Daniel Craig. The long-running franchise made a monumental step towards its next instalment last week, as Denis Villeneuve was named as director. Announcing that the Dune filmmaker would be helming the next film in the series, head of Amazon MGM Studios Mike Hopkins said: 'We are honoured that Denis has agreed to direct James Bond's next chapter. 'He is a cinematic master, whose filmography speaks for itself.' Since then, there has been plenty of speculation as to who might play Villeneuve's Bond – with some suggesting he might tap up Dune collaborator Timothée Chalamet to take the role. But according to Variety, the studio and producers have their own wishlist in mind with 2024's breakout star Harris Dickinson up there with Jacob Elordi, and Tom Holland. English actor Harris, 29, has had a strong run of hits recently, starring in Triangle of Sadness, The Iron Claw, and Babygirl in the last three years alone. As of April this year, Harris's odds were listed as 9/1 to score the elusive license to kill. 'The 28-year-old already has a very impressive portfolio of work and has received critical acclaim for his acting alongside Nicole Kidman,' said Betfred spokesperson Robert Ford. Earlier this year, it was announced that Harris will step into the shoes of another British icon – playing John Lennon in Sam Mendes' upcoming Beatles biopic. 28-year-old Jacob hit the stratosphere as the star of the 2023 hit Saltburn, appearing opposite Barry Keoghan as the object of creepy Oliver Quick's affections. With the publication reporting that producers are looking for an actor under the age of 30, Jacob certainly hits the bill in that respect. While Jacob is an Australian, that shouldn't count against him in playing British instruction Bond – underrated 007 George Lazenby was an Aussie too. If Jacob is successful, this should more than make up for him missing out on a starring role in James Gunn's upcoming Superman reboot. Marvel Cinematic Universe star Tom Holland, 29, previously threw his own name into the hat, admitting that he'd 'love' to play Bond. 'I'm just putting that out there,' he teased in 2021, adding: 'I look pretty good in a suit.' And, as the MCU's own Spider-Man, Tom is no stranger to explosive franchise filmmaking. With producers circling their Bond, speculation has also been rife as to who might be the next Bond girl. While some speculated that Zendaya could appear opposite Villeneuve's future Bond, her Dune: Part 2 co-star Florence Pugh has edged her out of the top spot. According to the Midsommar star is the favourite to be the next Bond girl, at odds of 8/1. 'I think everyone's always interested in playing a spy, right?' she told Digital Spy. 'That's something we grow up admiring, which is so strange, but it's just a very clever and quick world that we all want to be a part of.' As the only name formally attached to the new film, Villeneuve has responded to the announcement of his new gig, promising that the franchise is in safe hands. More Trending 'Some of my earliest movie-going memories are connected to 007,' he said in a statement released soon after the news broke. 'I grew up watching James Bond films with my father, ever since Dr. No with Sean Connery. I'm a die-hard Bond fan. To me, he's sacred territory. He described the opportunity 'a massive responsibility, but also, incredibly exciting for me and a huge honour.' Got a story?

Harris Dickinson stars in Rhode Glazing Mist campaign as brand's first male ambassador
Actor Harris Dickinson has been named the first male ambassador for Hailey Bieber's skincare brand, Rhode, starring in the campaign for its newest product: Glazing Mist. The announcement was made Monday alongside a striking black-and-white visual rollout, which shows Dickinson applying the mist — described by Rhode as a 'superfine spray that hydrates and refreshes for a next-level glowy finish.' Dickinson, known for roles in Beach Rats (2017), The King's Man (2021), and Triangle of Sadness (2022), most recently appeared opposite Nicole Kidman in Babygirl. His inclusion in the Glazing Mist campaign aligns with Rhode's latest launch, while also highlighting his rising presence in both film and fashion, having worked with luxury brands like Loewe and Dior. Social media reactions to the campaign have been swift, with fans drawing playful comparisons between Dickinson's viral milk-drinking scene in Babygirl and the mist's dewy aesthetic. Glazing Mist launches June 24 for $30 exclusively on Formulated with key ingredients such as ectoin (a moisture binder), a ceramide trio, beta-glucan, panthenol (vitamin B5), and magnolia extract, the product aims to hydrate, soothe, and protect the skin barrier. It is vegan, cruelty-free, fragrance-free, dermatologist- and ophthalmologist-tested, and has received the National Eczema Association's Seal of Acceptance. Rhode's decision to feature Dickinson reflects a broader shift toward gender-inclusive beauty marketing. Traditionally centered on Bieber and female-identifying influencers, the brand is now expanding its reach. Since its 2022 launch, Rhode has gained attention for its limited product drops, sleek packaging, and social-media-driven campaigns. That growth culminated in e.l.f. Beauty's recent $1 billion acquisition of the brand, with Bieber remaining as chief creative officer.

Hailey Bieber taps Harris Dickinson for newest Rhode campaign, and fans can't get enough of it
Hailey Bieber's billion-dollar beauty brand Rhode, just made a very interesting marketing move. In a surprise twist that no one saw coming but now feels inevitable, actor Harris Dickinson was recently cast in the brand campaign for the brand's latest hydration mist. Internet heartthrob and breakout star of the sultry indie hit Babygirl, Dickinson is known for his magnetic screen presence and quiet intensity and as the acclaimed actor steps into the world of skincare, Bieber opens up about why she chose him. A post shared by rhode skin (@rhode) "I watched [Babygirl] and I thought it was so great. I knew for this campaign that I really, really wanted to use a male face. I'm just really a fan of his work, and I just felt like there could be really good synergy between him and Rhode. I think that was definitely showcased in this campaign,' said Bieber in an interview. 'I didn't want anything to feel too on the nose with Babygirl. I never want to make anything feel gimmicky, and the undertone of it all is there. I wanted it to feel chic and sporty,' she added. As soon as the campaign dropped, the internet lit up with reactions that were downright thirsty. 'He was so good in Babygirl so I'm not mad at this,' wrote one user, echoing the sentiment of many. Another chimed in, 'He's hot… the end lmao.' Over on X , it was chaos in the best way: 'This girl really knows how to lure the market.' One more said, 'Hailey, this was a power move.' Clearly, Rhode's decision to lean into Dickinson's rising sex appeal without turning it into a spectacle hit the sweet spot. Dickinson's star power has been steadily rising since his breakout in Beach Rats (2017), followed by bigger roles in The King's Man and the Palme d'Or-winning Triangle of Sadness. With Babygirl bringing him even more critical acclaim — and placing him alongside Nicole Kidman — he's now gaining fashion clout, too, having worked with the likes of Loewe and Dior.
