10 Most Outlandish Spectre Rumours

9. Bond's "Brother"

There are lots of rumours swirling around the true identity of Christoph Waltz's character in Spectre (more on that later), but one which has been doing the rounds for some time now is that he's James Bond's brother. An alleged leaked script which surfaced late last year however shed some light on the relationship between 007 and the movie's main villain. As Spectre's first teaser trailer indicated, Bond does indeed have a brother... sort of. Waltz's character is apparently James' foster brother, and the son of Hans Oberhauser, a ski instructor who taught Bond a lot during his early years and became a second father to him. That's what that name refers to in Fleming's novels anyway. Unless they're going to go a step further by making him 007's biological brother, it looks like they'll pick and choose bits from the novels in order to make it so that James and Waltz's character grew up together.
