Spectre: 8 Most Convincing Fan Theories

8. Denbigh Is Working For SPECTRE

The Theory

Andrew Scott€™s government official Max Denbigh is actually a mole that€™s working for SPECTRE and supplying them with information.

Why It Could Work

Take one look at Andrew Scott in the film and try and say he doesn't look evil. Best known for playing Moriarty on Sherlock, he has a knack for playing bad guys.

Everything in the official releases would suggest so as well, with the few brief glimpses of Denbigh consisting of him physically fighting with M and staring devilishly into the camera.

As a government official, he€™d have access to lots of information, much of which could be valuable to Spectre and explain how they€™re staying ahead of MI6. It would add both credibility to their evil empire and a layer of depth to Denbigh.

Some have gone so far as to suggest that Denbigh is really Blofeld, but it seems like he€™s being established as too minor a character for that to pan out.
