As a dedicated gamer, I’ve been eagerly waiting to spill the beans about the voice actor behind the iconic character, James Bond, in 007 First Light. After weeks of suspenseful rumors and enthusiastic fan discussions, we finally have the big reveal!
Since IO Interactive is now responsible for creating a backstory for a novice James Bond character, there’s much anticipation about who will portray this new Bond, as his debut is scheduled for 2026.
Besides getting an insightful peek into the gameplay, it’s also been disclosed who lends their voice to the spy character in James Bond: 007 First Light. The following reveals the voice actor for the character of James Bond.
Who Voices James Bond in 007 First Light?
The voice actor for James Bond in 007 First Light is Patrick Gibson.
He’s a 30-year-old Irish actor, born in London, not particularly well-known but famously known for portraying a younger Dexter Morgan in the prequel series Dexter: Original Sin. It seems quite fitting that he could have been considered as a newcomer James Bond.
To get a better understanding of Patrick Gibson’s acting career, take a peek at his IMDb profile for a chance to identify other films or series he’s starred in. However, we don’t know about any other projects he’s been involved with. It’s worth noting that 007 First Light marks the debut of Patrick Gibson in video game acting. To date, his voice work has been impressive and we believe he embodies the character perfectly.
Is 007 First Light’s James Bond Canon?
No, the James Bond in 007 First Light is not canon to the overall James Bond story.
During an interview with Radio Times, Jonathan Lacaille, IO Interactive’s franchise director, revealed that many aspects of the game, such as the scar on James’ cheek, are inspired by the novels. However, the events portrayed in this game are not linked to the ongoing production between Amazon MGM; rather, they will exist independently, coexisting with those movies.
Although Patrick Gibson’s portrayal of James Bond isn’t recognized as official (canon), it’s still a significant association for him to bear. Typically, when one thinks of 007, they associate that role with some major Hollywood stars. Now, Gibson can claim he shares the limelight with actors like Daniel Craig, Pierce Brosnan, and Sean Connery, while offering an original interpretation of the character unlike any we’ve seen previously.
