While it still has yet to be confirmed by IO Interactive, chances are good that Patrick Gibson is playing James Bond in 007 First Light. IO Interactive first announced its James Bond video game in 2020, but it wasn't until just recently that the project got its official name and first details. 007 First Light is a third-person action-adventure game with the shooting, stealth, and explosive vehicle segments that fans have come to expect from James Bond video games.
James Bond movies tend to follow the character when they are relatively seasoned in the field and already middle-aged, but 007 First Light will instead feature a rookie Bond in his mid-20s. This new take on James Bond was showcased in 007 First Light's reveal trailers, but IO Interactive stopped short of announcing who exactly is playing the iconic character in the new video game. We're still waiting on the official announcement, but it is looking increasingly likely that 007 First Light's young James Bond is played by Patrick Gibson of Dexter: Original Sin fame.
IO Interactive shares why the developer is keeping the identity of 007 First Light's voice actor for James Bond a secret...
