The report notes that Kraven the Hunter star Aaron Taylor-Johnson has been rumored to be a possible Bond, but no formal offer has been made. Until Eon decides who should be behind the camera, the next James Bond will remain a subject of intense speculation. For now, there is no release date for Bond 26.
