A note: none of this is confirmed and we often get agents sending false stories that such and such actress is being considered for a role just to get some publicity.

Also, our friends at HMSS Weblog have published a timely piece about the “Bond 24 silly season“.

Update: From Sweden With Love told me on Twitter that the Swedish paper in question, Aftonbladet, is renowned for reporting gossip and cannot be treated as a credible source. The story was first reported 2 months old and the fact that the actresses have been reported as going on record about it sows further seeds of doubt.
