The Full 007 First Light Cast — Who Plays Who
Here is every confirmed 007 First Light actor, filed by the character they play. Each lead below has a jump anchor, so a search for a single name — Patrick Gibson, Lenny Kravitz or Noémie Nakai — lands straight on the right card. We only list mappings confirmed across multiple sources; single-source supporting roles are flagged.
Portraits show the real actor where a freely licensed photo exists (credited beneath each, via Wikimedia Commons); otherwise the card uses the official IO Interactive in-game render.

First-ever video-game role
In the game he plays a 26-year-old Bond before the 00 — a promising but sometimes reckless Royal Navy air crewman pulled into MI6's training programme. It is the origin-story version of the character, so the 007 First Light actor is building Bond from the ground up rather than echoing any film performance.
