‘Barbara was blown away by her performance as a hard, determined yet compassionate spook,’ said a source. ‘She feels after years of cold, emotionless Bonds, it’s time to introduce someone with real humanity behind the steel.’
Speculation about who will play Ian Fleming’s most famous creation had been rife since Craig announced last year he would rather ‘slash his wrists’ than reprise the role. Tom Hiddleston, Miss Colman’s co-star in the Night Manager, had been tipped as the next Bond, with Poldark’s Aidan Turner and Luther’s Idris Elba also believed to be in the running.
Mother-of-three Miss Colman, who has also starred in Peep Show and Rev, has been in talks with Bond producers for the past few weeks. She was told on Monday she had secured the part.
‘Olivia couldn’t believe it, she thought it was a joke at first,’ said a close friend. ‘It’s the dream job that every actor in Britain wanted and she was over the moon to land it. But it’s not just that.
‘Olivia’s no fool – she knows it will raise her profile abroad and lead to better, and more lucrative, film offers. Olivia knows it’s now time to prove herself to the rest of the world. She had her third baby less than eight months ago but is determined to get in shape and prove she can do the stunts just as well as any man.’
Yesterday Bond 25 associate producer Flora Pilo said: ‘We can’t yet confirm who will be taking over from Daniel Craig. An announcement will be made in due course.’

Victoria Beckham shows off her incredible flexibility as she lifts her leg high up in the air in fun Instagram snap: 'Ballet classes are paying off!'

'Ballet classes are paying off!': Victoria Beckham shows off her incredible flexibility as she lifts her leg high up in the air in fun Instagram snap

For years she barely showed her natural smile in public, giving the impression of a lack of sense of humour.
But in recent times Victoria Beckham has been happy to share an insight into her winning sense of humour, and on Thursday she did just that with a hilarious Instagram post.
The 41-year-old fashion designer posted a snap of herself on her social media page, delighting her 9.7m followers as she lifted her slender leg high up in the air, showing off her awe-inspiring flexibility.

That is one heck of a leggy display! Victoria Beckham stunned as she lifted her leg up incredibly high in a fun Instagram snap on Thursday, boasting that her 'ballet classes are paying off'

With her perfect pins opening further than a 90 degree angle - and with her stiletto-heeled foot pointed gracefully - she joked that her impressive posture was down to ballet.
'It's amazing what you can do in culottes...those ballet classes are paying off! Thank u @edwardbarsamian and @voguemagazine! Kisses from LA x vb,' she wrote.
For all her joviality, the former Spice Girls star kept her face stoic and distracted in the picture, making sure her eye-popping leg lift was the focus.
Reclining casually on a sofa on a luxurious-looking hotel room she looked sensational in a pair of loose-fitting black culottes and a strapless top, giving the illusion of a jumpsuit.
Social media star: Victoria kept her fans up to date with her tour of Asia a couple of weeks ago, regularly sharing snaps, such as this striking image in front of her hotel window backdrop in Seoul, South Korea

Her brunette locks were styled in her favourite 'do, pulled back into a long ponytail with a touch of lift at the roots.
The photograph appeared to be a throwback snap from last week, when Victoria was in the Asian country to launch her Hong Kong store: during her trip to Asia, she also visited South Korea.
While in the city, she also appeared at the amFAR Gala, held on Saturday 19 March, wearing one of her stunning designs on the red carpet.
She was a special guest of honour at the prestigious event for her charity work with the AIDs research foundation.

Meanwhile, on Wednesday at home in Los Angeles, Victoria had cut a far more casual figure in her workout wear as she walked alongside her daughter under the sunny skies.
She rocked a pair of slim-fitting leggings and a zip-up top, and her favourite black Adidas baseball cap to hide her face following a workout. 
The four-year-old beamed with delight as she skipped out of the gym with her famous parents and three brothers.
The little girl looked adorable in a blue Karl Lagerfeld tennis dress with her long brown hair flowing loosely as she stayed close to her siblings. 
Out with her clan: On Wednesday, Victoria stepped out in West Hollywood with husband David and her four children, including four-year-old daughter Harper

Speaking to Harper's BAZAAR this month, she explained that she's always on the move.
The daughter of Yolanda Foster revealed: 'I like to do at least 15 minutes of cardio everyday if I can fit it in. My body really reacts well to not eating a lot of wheat or dairy and staying on healthy foods. But it's always hard.' 
Bella, who's carved out a successful career in modelling in a very short time, is thought to be considering a career switch to being behind the camera.
The star, who regularly works with fashion photographers like Mario Testino and Steven Meisel, previously studied at Parsons for photography.
