“On this… it’s all very flattering,” he said.
“It’s nice to be mentioned – for any role – and I’m just not really going to add to the noise,” he said.
Last month, his Slow Horses co-star Gary Oldman claimed the new Bond had been chosen, adding that he had his “fingers crossed” for Lowden.
Speaking to Canada’s Global, Oldman said: “It’s been rumoured that he’s on the shortlist.
“We’re going to find out pretty soon, aren’t we? Because they have picked him.
“They have made their choice, but they have not announced it yet. So my fingers are crossed for Jack.”
When asked about Oldman’s comments, Lowden said: “It’s very nice, and Gary’s a sweetheart – it’s particularly lovely, coming from someone like him.
“But I don’t really listen to it.”
He added: “As a young male actor, generally, the minute you’re not playing a zany artist type, the minute you’re in a suit, people fling it at you.”
