AI creates a perfect James Bond — and it resembles this actor

This AI-created James Bond is causing quite a stir.

As the search for the next Bond presses on, video game company Unwind Media enlisted the help of DeepDream Al software to manufacture the ideal 007.

Entering the current requirements for the secret agent hunk – such as being under 40, and, of course, with devilish good looks  – into the AI generator.

The result bared a striking resemblance to actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson, chiseled jaw, tussled hair and all – swoon.

Coincidentally, the “Bullet Train” star, 32, is on the short list of hunky Hollywood heartthrobs rumored to be in the running for the coveted Bond role, alongside Idris Elba, Tom Hardy, “Superman” stud Henry Cavill, Richard Madden and “Bridgerton” star Regé-Jean Page.

A spokesperson for the video game company was shocked at the uncanny resemblance to Taylor-Johnson, telling The Times, “It’ll be amazing if he actually lands the role now.”

Unwind Media commissioned AI software to produce a perfect rendition of what James Bond should look like.

Unwind Media also prompted the artificial intelligence technology to manufacture the next Bond girl, with the instructions to imagine a British actress in her mid-twenties who is 5’7″ tall. The software’s output revealed an airbrushed, blond bombshell with vibrant blue eyes.

The digitally produced leading lady bared a resemblance to “Ocean’s 8” star Charlotte Kirk, who has allegedly been tapped as the upcoming Bond girl, according to the Mirror, and will appear on-screen with whoever is crowned the next 007.

After fan favorite Daniel Craig, 55, hung up his blazer and bowtie following “No Time to Die” in 2021, producers have merely hinted at who will assume the legendary role next.

Taylor-Johnson’s rumored screen test last year supposedly crowned him a front-runner, sources revealed in January. He apparently wowed the franchise’s producer, Barbara Broccoli, as an insider dished that she “loved him.”

“He is now one of the front-runners,” the source told The Sun. “Aaron has impressed bosses so much that he has filmed one of the franchise’s famous gun barrel teaser scenes, something all the actors do.”

Last year, the possibility of Elba, 50, stepping into 007’s black tie attire was dashed away by Broccoli, who said that while they adore the “Suicide Squad” actor, he may be too old to fit the bill.

“The thing is, it’s going to be a couple of years off,” Broccoli previously told Variety. “And when we cast Bond, it’s a 10-, 12-year commitment. So he’s probably thinking, ‘Do I really want that thing?’ Not everybody wants to do that. It was hard enough getting [Daniel Craig to do it].”

Craig was in his thirties when he was cast as Bond, making Elba’s 007 outlooks grim, despite being “part of the conversation” last January. The “Luther” actor also took himself out of the rumored running, saying he’s “not going to be that guy.”

“I’m going to be John Luther. That’s who I am,” he said in February.

Producers are looking for the sweet spot – not too old, nor too young – after all, the young talent doesn’t have “the gravitas” to be 007.

“They didn’t have the experience, they didn’t have the mental capacity to take it on, because it’s not just the part they’re taking on, it’s a massive responsibility,” casting director Debbie McWilliams told Radio Times this week, referring to youthful actors.

“So we kind of scrubbed that idea and went back to the drawing board and started again.”

Whoever scores the renowned role of Bond will join the decades of Hollywood legends to play the fictional bruiser.

Since the expansive world of 007 began with “Dr. No” in 1962 with Sean Connery, there have been more than 25 blockbusters produced around the famed character. Spanning more than six decades, each generation has shaken up the ever-iconic Bond character, played by stars such as Timothy Dalton, David Niven, George Lazenby, Pierce Brosnan, Roger Moore, Connery and Craig. 

“It’ll be interesting to see who they get, who the man shall be,” Brosnan previously told GQ. “Whoever he be, I wish him well.”
