Bond casting news+

Actor Alex Reece mentioned yesterday on twitter that he had secured a “lead” role in the forthcoming Heineken beer commercial that is expected to tie into Skyfall. We understand that commercial is also set to star incumbent 007 actor, Daniel Craig and hear rumours that Sam Mendes will direct the featurette.

According to the post, Reece will play a Russian assassin on the tail of James Bond. The actor may have been a bit naughty with his tweets and the page has now been taken down - secrecy and all that.
