Next James Bond: A Scottish Bond? Here are the Glasgow actors who are favourites to become 007 - including Gerald Butler, Sam Heughan and Richard Madden

 Its entirely possible that the next James Bond could be from Glasgow.


James Bond fans across the world have been speculating as to who could play the next international super spy but how likely is it for a Glasgow actor to take up the role?The character has most often been played by English men - with the exception to the rule being the legendary Sean Connery.






Arguably Connery was one of the best Bonds to don the suit and following his death in 2020 we may see a Scot take up the role again.Connery came from Edinburgh, what what are the odds of the next Bond being from Glasgow? Here we take a look at what Glaswegian actors have been listed from bookmakers as candidates for the next Bond.Gerard Butler was born in Paisley and has had a small role in a Bond film before.


In Tomorrow Never Dies  one of his earliest big screen film credits  he can briefly be seen portraying the leading seaman of the HMS Devonshire .Bookies have Butlers odds as the next Bond at 200/1.Tennant was born in Bathgate but grew up in Paisley and has already forged a name for himself in British culture in his role as Doctor Who in the 2000s.


The Paisley actor has already shown that he can play a massive range of characters most recently having played the creepy and enigmatic serial killer Dennis Nilsen in ITV drama Des .David Tennant is certainly slick enough to fit the role but bookmakers have him tied with Gerard Butler with odds at 200/1.
