Aaron Taylor-Johnson's astronomical net worth as he's tipped to be next James Bond

After months and months of speculation on who will be the next 007, Actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson is currently taking the top spot on who is most likely to replace Daniel Craig, and his net worth is astronomical.

The actor, who has taken roles in Bullet Trainand Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging, already has a net worth of more than £14.8million, which is expected to shoot up if he claims the role of James Bond.

The 35-year-old is one of the rumoured actors, alongside Theo James and Henry Cavill. Daniel Craig reportedly amassed $100million (£74million) from his six outings as the secret agent after filming the 2005 blockbuster Casino Royale, so the next Bond is likely to be in for an even bigger payday.

Aaron has taken on an array of notable roles, including playing John Lennon in Nowhere Boy and even joining the Marvel cinematic universe as Pietro Maximoff.

Speculation on the next James Bond has been going on for years. However, in May this year, Aaron sparked more speculation due to reportedly signing a deal with the official watch provider for the 007 movies, Omega.

Bets on Aaron flew up threefold after hearing about his deal, according to Oddschecker. Leon Blackman, a spokesperson for Oddschecker, said: “Aaron Taylor-Johnson has seen a surge of betting interest for him on the Oddschecker platform on Thursday after news broke of his watch deal with Omega.”

Adding: “67% of bets have backed him to replace Daniel Craig as 007 and he's taken three times the number of bets on Thursday afternoon than the previous fortnight.”

Pierce Brosnan, famous for being the fith James Bond, was the first to be seen wearing the Omega brand in the 1995 movie.

Aaron said after signing the deal: “I have always had an appreciation for timepieces but especially for Omega. Now, after visiting the factory, I am in awe of the skill required to manufacture such a luxurious product.”

Actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson's director wife Sam Taylor-Johnson spoke out on the speculation last year and said on The Johnathon Ross show: “Carry on speculating. He’d be great”.

Sam and Aaron controversially met in 2009 on the set of her film Nowhere Boy. Aaron was just 18 at the time and Sam was 42 and had divorced art dealer husband Jay Jopling the year before. They announced their engagement at the Nowhere Boy premiere in October 2009.

The couple, who got married in 2012, went on to have two children together, while Sam shares two older daughters with her ex-husband Jay.

They previously discussed how they fell for each other, with Sam previously telling Harper’s Bazaar: "We were very professional through the entire film… No funny business at all… As soon as we finished, he told me he was going to marry me. We had never been on a date, or even kissed."
