Bond Casting Remains Secret as Steven Knight Dodges 007 Talk

Steven Knight declined to confirm who will play James Bond in an interview on BBC Radio 4’s Today show, even as Gary Oldman claimed a decision had been made and backed Jack Lowden. Knight said he writes the character, not the actor, and stressed Bond’s own universe and British identity. The project is being developed for Amazon MGM Studios with producers Amy Pascal and David Heyman, and Denis Villeneuve is attached as director; auditions and shortlist discussions have occurred, but no casting announcement has been made.

Knight Reveals Scrapped Tom Hardy Alfie Twist for Peaky Blinders

Steven Knight reveals he nearly included a Tom Hardy–Alfie Solomons twist in Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man—where Alfie might appear as a dead figure—before scrapping it to focus on Tommy Shelby’s 1940 war-time arc and his farewell; the film ends with Tommy thwarting a Nazi counterfeit currency plot, and Knight hints some Immortal Man characters may appear in a forthcoming 1953 sequel series, while confirming Alfie won’t get a spin-off.
