12 Characters Who Will Probably Die In 2015’s Biggest Movies

9. Mr Hinx - Spectre

A lot has been said about the Batmanification of the James Bond franchise, and the addition of WWE fighter and break-out star of Guardians Of The Galaxy Dave Bautista as a henchman could inspire further accusations. Batman did bring in a wrestler to play a hulking figure after all, and the somewhat distasteful result was Batman & Robin's Bane abomination. To his credit Bautista has proved he's capable of actually acting (though he was gifted a rather generous script by James Gunn); but quite how he will work as hired muscle, where aesthetic is more important than charisma is an entirely different prospect. Presumably he's only going to be furniture, unless Sam Mendes has ideas that Mr Hinx (great name, by the way) could be the new Jaws, and if it is, he's hardly likely to survive. That much is even more unlikely because of the presence of Christoph Waltz: if he's playing the head of SPECTRE there's no way he can die on his first appearance, and traditional blood lust means he will need a substitute, which is where his underlings - and Hinx in particular - would step in.
