Aaron Taylor-Johnson, 33, and his wife Sam, 54, are seen out and about in London amid reports the actor has been offered the new James Bond role


Aaron Taylor-Johnson was seen out and about in London on Sunday amid reports he has been offered to play the new James Bond - taking over from Daniel Craig.

Aaron met the filmmaker on the set of Nowhere Boy in 2009 and they share daughters Wylda Rae, 13, and Romy Hero 11, as well as Angelica, 26, and Jessie, 16, from Sam's previous marriage to art dealer Jay Jopling. The initial report suggested that the deal was all but done with Aaron who was on the verge of officially accepting the role of a lifetime, which would have made him only the seventh actor to play the iconic British secret agent since the franchise launched in 1962. And he will also be appearing in the hotly anticipated remake of 1922 gothic horror Nosferatu, directed by Robert Eggers and featuring a star-studded cast, including Bill SkarsgÄrd, Nicholas Hoult, Lily-Rose Depp and Willem Dafoe.
