Speaking to TV presenter Alex Zane on the BAFTA Film Awards red carpet on Sunday afternoon, James addressed rumours that he could be the next James Bond.
James Norton has addressed a convincing fan theory that he's set to be the next James Bond, telling an interviewer that "it's so weird and bemusing" to be tipped for the role.
Last month, Playing Nice viewers noticed that James Norton's character didn't wear a tuxedo at a black-tie event, playing into the long-running rumour that actors can't wear tuxedos in other projects while under contract as Bond.
Former Grantchester and Playing Nice star James has been tipped to be the next bond for years, with fans even spotting a major clue that he may have signed on the dotted 007 line already.
The iconic film franchise has been searching for the next 007 since Daniel Craig quit the role back in 2016 - however, Bond boss Barbara Broccoli is yet to confirm his successor.
