Robert Pattinson rumors heat up as new 007 director says he "can't stop thinking" about Primetime

For weeks, the next James Bond shortlist was narrowed down to four actors: Jack Lowden, Callum Turner, Josh O'Connor – and a mystery name.

In a twist that left most 007 fans shaken and stirred, Robert Pattinson and Nicholas Hoult have reportedly tested (as per Variety) for the role, with many declaring Pattinson – who showcased his spy chops in Tenet – the new frontrunner.

Aiding fuel to the fire is Bond 26 director Denis Villeneuve was asked by Vanity Fair to name a recent movie he can't stop thinking about. Curiously, he answered Primetime, the Robert Pattinson-starring drama where he stars as To Catch a Predator's Chris Hansen.

"I was really impressed by Primetime," Villeneuve said. The director also includes Pattinson as part of his star-studded Dune 3 cast, which perhaps may tip the scales in his favor.

Then there's Nicholas Hoult. A perennial runner-up in big-name auditions (Batman, Superman, and Harry Potter, to name but a few), he is an intriguing new name in the mix for a process that has been played out in public over the past month.

Of the other candidates, Jack Lowden has broken his silence on being linked as a prospective new Bond actor, but with the sort of subtlety that might see him welcomed into the corridors of MI6.

Lowden told British GQ , "On this… It’s all very flattering.
