Aston Martin is hiring away Bentley’s chief executive officer, Adrian Hallmark, to take over as CEO and stabilize the luxury-car maker synonymous with James Bond.

Hallmark will replace 77-year-old Amedeo Felisa no later than October 1, Aston Martin said Friday. He’ll be the fourth CEO to lead the company since billionaire Lawrence Stroll became executive chairman in 2020.
