In the long lineage of actors who have stepped into the shoes of the world's most famous spy, a new name has joined the record books. Patrick Gibson, at 29 years old, has been confirmed as the voice and face of James Bond in the video game 007 First Light — tying George Lazenby's decades-old distinction as the youngest actor ever to inhabit 007. The casting reflects both the expanding terrain of the Bond franchise and a deliberate creative choice to imagine the character at his most unformed, before the legend fully takes shape.
