Barely containing their laughter, Tucci asks Madden: “How’s yours” to which the GoT actor replies “Delicious”, in what sounds like an English accent. The pair were in London to promote Amazon Prime’s sci-fi series Citadel, in which they both star.
Following the exchange, fans were quick off the mark to point out they might be watching the new James Bond. One user wrote: “New Bond and Q??”. Another agreed, writing: “There you go, here’s the new James Bond.”

James Bond bookies favourite
Countless names have been thrown into the hat to replace the outgoing Daniel Craig, who vacated the iconic role of the secret agent after 2021’s No Time To Die. For a while it was believed Idris Elba would become 007 until the Luthor star distanced himself from the role.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson has emerged as the people’s favourite but as of April 21, major bookies still aren’t backing the Bullet Train and Kick-ass star. Here’s a list of odds from betting guide OBLG.
- Paapa Essiedu - 2/1
- James Norton - 2/1
- Aaron Taylor-Johnson - 5/2
- Henry Cavill - 4/1
- Rege-Jean Page - 6/1
