Meanwhile, Idris Elba is also still in the running, priced at 8-1 along with Michael Fassbender and Tom Hardy.
Peaky Blinders and Venom actor Hardy’s odds have improved slightly since the start of the month, when he was at 9-1 with the bookies.

“I think it’s about time we had a Scottish Bond again,” he continued.
