Idris Elba, Tom Hiddleston and Aidan Turner have all been tipped as possible replacements but it seem film bosses are still holding out for Craig.

Another day, and another fan theory from the Harry Potter universe that seems to be so well thought out that it will probably blow your tiny mind.

This time around, the theory is centred around the scene in the Deathly Hallows where Harry meets with the recently deceased Professor Dumbledore at King’s Cross Station – which seems to have transformed into some kind of purgatory.

Explains why they break into song every five minutes.
