Pattinson reportedly screen-tested for Bond.
Testing for Bond gets an actor into the story; it doesn’t put the role in their hands. The Hollywood Reporter says Robert Pattinson screen-tested for James Bond; Variety also reports Nicholas Hoult was among those who tested. Deadline’s account, which it says is unconfirmed and based on insiders, puts Pattinson and Hoult alongside Jack Lowden, Josh O’Connor and Callum Turner in recent screen tests. That’s five names in the testing reports, not a casting announcement; none of the reports confirms anyone has been cast.
