A popular Irish actor could be the next James Bond

Who Plays James Bond In 007 First Light? Fans Believe They've Worked It Out

As of yet, however, IO Interactive has yet to announce who is playing Bond in First Light. What we do know is that The Walking Dead's Lennie James plays Bond's mentor, John Greenway. This is a brand-new character, but some of the Bond series veterans like M, Q, and Moneypenny will appear in First Light as well.

Like Bond himself, actors playing those roles have yet to be confirmed, nor do we know who's playing the mysterious character Isola or any of the "whole new cast of villains."

First Light tells the story of how James Bond became 007, picking up with Bond when he was a 26-year-old recruit from the Royal Navy. Like the movies, First Light will tell a globe-trotting story focused on action and espionage.

First Light launches in 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2, and PC.
