15 Upcoming Movie Rumours We Hope Aren't True

7. 007 Gets Married - Bond 25

Spectre Ending Daniel Craig Lea Seydoux James Bond

The Rumour: Various "leaks" over the last few months have suggested that James Bond (Daniel Craig) may be getting married at the start of his 25th outing, most probably to Madeline Swann (Léa Seydoux), the Bond girl he disappeared with at the end of Spectre.

How Likely Is It?: This is a tough one. The source are all British tabloid newspapers which immediately makes them unreliable, though given that Spectre was heavily indebted to the plot of On Her Majesty's Secret Service, it would make a measure of sense to follow that through to Bond marrying, settling down and then returning to the field after his wife is murdered.

Given that Seydoux's upcoming shooting schedule is pretty busy, this may suggest that she's merely returning to be quickly killed off in the pre-titles sequence.

It's all a bit lazy and thoughtless though, no? Do we just want these new Bond movies to be dispassionate facsimiles of better prior efforts?
