He appeared to keep a low profile with his dark and overgrown beard covering most of his face.

The star’s hair was equally untamed with curly loose strands hanging over his forehead.

He wore a navy blue shirt with the first few buttons undone, some oversized sunglasses and gold layered chains around his neck.

The movie star was seen flashing a big smile alongside his wife as they holidayed with their A-lister pals.

The actor, who is in the running to be the next James Bond , was doing a good impression of an undercover 007 agent.

He easily could go undetected with his bold new look – but have you sussed out who it is yet?

He looked in good spirits as he was seen hopping of the luxury boat with wife Sam Taylor-Wood, 58.

The Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging actor looked very different to his usual hunky rom-com heartthrob roles.

But it may be because he’s about to step into a new action role…

Aaron is a firm favourite to be stepping into  Bond ‘s shoes, with market favourite odds of 11/8.

Recently, Aaron dropped a huge hint  he’d bagged the iconic movie role.

The Marvel movie star, 34, has signed a deal with Omega – the brand of watch the 007 spy wears.

Omega has been supplying timepieces to the iconic literary and movie character since the release of 1995 flick,  Golden Eye .

Aaron  has joined the firm’s roster of global ambassadors, with a promotional image showing the Kick-Ass and  Avengers  movie star staring into a cabinet filled with the classy wrist-watches.

The Sun exclusively told how  Aaron  had been  formally offered the role of the Brit spy  last year.

This came after we first reported the  Marvel  movie star had emerged as a surprise frontrunner three years ago.

In 2022, The Sun  revealed that Aaron was in the running for the job  after secretly screen testing for Bond movie supremo  Barbara Broccoli  at Pinewood Studios.

A source previously told us: “ Bond  is Aaron’s job, should he wish to accept it.”

Recently, we reported how  “die hard” James Bond fan Denis Villeneuve had been appointed director  ahead of the new movie.
