Cool news. Thanks, Abdel. But is casting news really a spoiler?
And I'm a little confused about the villain. Are we claiming Demetrius is the main villain? But didn't Stax say there was a role called "Main villain" that's yet to be cast. I think Demetrius must be a secondary villain of some kind. A General Ourumov of sorts. Surely these parts (and these actors) and not leads?
Well, not the Casting thing itself is a spoiler, but the speculation about names and roles, me thinks...
I think this is a theory of Heiko I read yesterday over at the German Bond forums: What, if Demetrius *is* the main villain and LeChiffre is only acting in the background, let's say a relationship like Largo and Blodelf had in
Thunderball. What makes me believe that Demetrius is actually the or one of the main villains is, that Stax reported that those other 2 French actors, Romain Duris and Michael Youn, auditioned for the part of the main villain. Now, "LeParisien" claims that Abkarian got the role that was first offered to Duris. Which clearly is the part of the main villain. On the other hand it is clearly stated that Abkarian is going to play the role of Demetrius. So - I think you cannot be too sure that Demetrius is not the main villain...
