Sir Roger Moore expects evil genius Ernst Stavro Blofeld to appear in ‘SPECTRE’.
The 87-year-old actor – who starred in seven Bond films between 1973 and 1985, including ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’, ‘Moonraker’ and ‘For Your Eyes Only’ – expects to see the cat-loving, scarred super-villain return for the much-anticipated new movie, which is named after the fictional terrorist organisation Blofeld heads up.
Although it’s not been officially confirmed, the ‘SPECTRE’ names suggests the iconic character will appear in the new movie – much to the delight of Sir Roger, who tweeted: "So Blofeld is back!"
Oscar-winning actor Christoph Waltz has been cast as Oberhauser in the new James Bond movie, but it’s been widely speculated he could actually be portraying Blofeld.
Returning director Sam Mendes – who helmed the 2012 Bond film ‘Skyfall’ – hinted at the importance of the 58-year-old star’s on-screen character at an event staged yesterday (04.12.14) at Pinewood Studios, South East England.
Sam, 49, introduced Christoph by saying: "The most important member [of the visiting cast], I think – an extraordinary actor – I could not be happier than to be having in this cast and joining us on this journey, Mr Christoph Waltz."
