Aaron Taylor-Johnson has been a top pick among bookmakers for the coveted role of James Bond. Recently, the 34-year-old actor was spotted taking a leisurely stroll around London with a new addition to his appearance - a luscious beard. Accompanied by his wife, Sam Taylor-Johnson, he publicly debuted his new look while on his way to exercise his democratic rights by casting his vote in the general election.
For the outing, Aaron opted for a simple yet stylish outfit - a plain white t-shirt, denim jeans, and a pair of cowboy boots with a small heel. To combat the unpredictable British weather, he completed his look with a light suede jacket. Sam, who is a 57-year-old director, looked equally fashionable in white jeans, a t-shirt, and a fitted black blazer.
Sam shared a photo on Instagram from their day out, which showed a street performer playing the violin with a sign pointing towards the polling station. It seems like Aaron's new beard is here to stay as he headed to the polling station with his wife by his side. Sam documented their outing, giving fans a glimpse into their day.
The actor has been a top contender for the iconic role of 007, with his impressive acting credentials that range from the coming-of-age film Angus, Thongs, and Perfect Snogging to his recent action blockbuster Bullet Train. While many actors have played the fictional secret service agent in the successful franchise, including Sean Connery, Pierce Brosnan, and Sir Rodger Moore, Aaron has the opportunity to bring something new to the table if he chooses to keep his beard and take on the role.
It's quite uncommon for a Bond to have such distinctive facial hair throughout their tenure, and perhaps it's time for a change. Aaron's beard is a recent addition, and it has sparked speculation among fans about his potential casting as the new 007. Along with Aaron, other eligible male stars, such as Idris Elba, Cillian Murphy, and Henry Cavill, have also been rumored to be in the running for the role. However, in March, it was reported that Aaron had been "formally" offered the role and was expected to sign the contract soon. But these claims were later refuted by a production insider who stated that there was no truth to them.
During an interview with AP, Aaron was asked if he gets tired of being asked about playing Bond, to which he sarcastically replied, "You sick of asking the question?" On the other hand, Sam was more enthusiastic about the rumors and even expressed her support for her husband's potential casting during an appearance on Jonathan Ross' ITV show.
Sam and Aaron first met on the set of Nowhere Boy in 2009 and announced their engagement at the film's premiere. Despite their 24-year age gap, the couple has been happily married for 11 years and has two children together - Wylda Rae, born in 2010, and Romy Hero Johnson, born in 2012. Sam also has two daughters from her previous marriage, completing their blended family.
