Peaky Blinders Boss Responds to Reports that the New James Bond Has Been Cast
Knight declined to confirm the next 007 after Gary Oldman backed Jack Lowden, as speculation continues around Amazon MGM Studios’ new Bond film.
- On Tuesday, screenwriter Steven Knight appeared on BBC Radio's Today show, where he deflected inquiries regarding the casting of James Bond following recent claims by actor Gary Oldman.
- Gary Oldman recently suggested his Slow Horses co-star Jack Lowden is on the shortlist, claiming in an interview with Canada's The Morning Show that producers have already made their selection.
- While discussing his writing process with presenter Anna Foster, Knight stated penning the next film feels like "doing my duty for King and country," though he remained tight-lipped on the actor.
- Canadian filmmaker Denis Villeneuve will helm the new Bond film after Amazon MGM Studios took creative control, intensifying speculation about casting among fans and industry observers.
- Beyond the spy franchise, Knight is also directing a documentary about Oasis examining the band's 2025 reunion tour, a project he described as driven by a "tidal wave" of fan interest.
