Billie was the voice behind the 2021 movie No Time to Die.
Betting website betideas.com have shared who they think is most likely to follow in her footsteps.
It appears that Chappell is 2/1, followed by Lana Del Ray and Dua Lipa (5/2), Raye and Lady Gaga (5/1), Adele (10/1), Florence & The Machine (11/1) and BAR (12/1).
Spokesperson for betideas.com, Lee Astley, said: “There have been interesting developments in the markets surrounding the next James Bond film, with American star Chappell Roan the new favourite to front the theme tune when 007 returns to our screens.
“Roan is now just 2/1 in the betting, closely followed by Lana Del Rey and Dua Lipa, who are joint at 5/2.
“In the next film director market, Greta Gerwig has been backed into 5/2.
“Now just second in the market, the director of ‘Barbie’ is preceded only by Edward Berger, who heads the betting at 11/8.”
Chappell started her career back in 2013 when she started uploading videos
Between 2017 and 2024 she’s released a number of singles, including Good Hurt, Good Luck Babe and Hot to Go!
She also released her first album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess in 2023.
2024 was arguably her breakthrough year, supporting Olivia Rodrigo on tour back in April.
She also did her thing on stage during Coachella earlier this year.
Chappell also won Best New Artist at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards.
The star has earned the unfortunate name of “Chappell Moan” following some public outbursts and clashes.
Back in October she was spotted shouting at a photographer at a premiere in Los Angeles, demanding he apologise for being “rude” to her at a Grammys bash in February.
That came just weeks after she clashed with a mouthy snapper at the MTV VMAs — where she was crowned Best New Artist — swearing back at him on the red carpet.
She also cancelled several shows recently, including two festival gigs last month, which she put down to feeling “overwhelmed” and under pressure.
