The pattern behind it
3 of 4
3 of the last 4 Bond handovers were announced within a year of the search becoming active. But the Amazon MGM era has already broken every timing precedent in the franchise, so the historical clock deserves less weight than usual.
Every change of Bond actor has gone the same way. The old Bond leaves, and after a search full of leaks the studio names the new one. What changes is the time in between. It has ranged from two months to nearly two years. This search has already run far longer.
