MTV debunked its own rumor that Abbie Cornish may have landed a role in Bond 22. The site asked Cornish, who said, “I haven’t had any meetings or any conversations about it, no. Sorry, mate.”
In fact, ComingSoon.net had also spoken to the actress over the weekend and asked her about the earlier Bond rumors, to which she responded: “”Yeah, I was told about it, but it’s not true, so you just dismiss it. It didn’t come for me.”
When we asked whether the rumor spurred her to pursue the role, she responded: “Essentially, it was just a rumor, so you kind of just let it go. I didn’t really think of it like that.”
The latest rumor is that the producers are looking for a Latina actress to join Daniel Craig in the Marc Forster-directed 22nd installment.
