Avatar actor Sam Worthington has been tipped to become the next 007 in the wake of news that the 23rd Bond film has been placed on indefinite hold.

Bookmaker William Hill has made the 33-year-old 5/2 favourite to take over the role should Daniel Craig not return for his third instalment in the series.

British actor Christian Bale is 7/1 to take on the highly coveted role - as is Hollywood star Will Smith.

However Craig, 42, is expected to return as Bond for another film.

Previous hiatuses in production have led to the role of Ian Fleming's iconic spy being recast.

A six-year gap between 1989 and 1995 saw the departure of one Bond - Welsh actor Timothy Dalton - and the installation of another - Irish-born Pierce Brosnan.

A four-year break between 2002 and 2006, meanwhile, saw Brosnan leave the series and Craig take over.

Continued uncertainty over the future of the MGM studio prompted Bond producers Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli to announce that work on the as-yet-untitled new film would halt.

"Due to the continuing uncertainty surrounding the future of MGM... we have suspended development on Bond 23 indefinitely," the pair said on Tuesday.

A video from last year of Sam's interview on Rove's final show (basically the Australian equivalent of Letterman) that I am proud to say I watched on TV. He's such a bogan
