“Guardians of the Galaxy” star Dave Bautista could be the latest addition to the “Bond 24” cast.
The “Bond 24” production was looking for a villain that resembled Jaws and Oddjob, essentially a male who's in peak physical condition.
“Seems like the found their guy because according to sources, Dave Bautista, mega hot off his career making role as Drax The Destroyer in Marvel's Guardians Of The Galaxy, has bagged the role of HINX in the upcoming Bond 24,” according to The Latino Review.
Bautista isn’t the only rumored cast member that is allegedly joining Daniel Craig in “Bond 24.” Singer Rihanna is reportedly being eyed by the production as their next franchise Bond girl.
Rihanna has been offered an extended camo, but has yet to sign a contract, Hollywood Life reports.
“There have definitely been discussions of her joining the cast to be a Bond Girl,” a source told Hollywood Life. “But she will not be the most focused Bond Girl if she gets the part. It will be more of a glorified cameo.
“Something that they have done in the past with people like Madonna, it will be a brief part of the film if she ends up making an appearance.”
The production also reportedly wants Rihanna to create the film’s theme song.
“They are actually looking for her to do the theme and the role would just be an added bonus,” the source said.
