'Sherlock' star Benedict Cumberbatch to play Bond villain? He could square up to Daniel Craig in the 24th 007 movie, due in 2014 (NME)



Benedict Cumberbatch is reportedly being lined up to play the next Bond villain.

According to The Express, the Sherlock actor could square up to Daniel Craig in the 24th Bond movie, which is expected to come out in 2014.

A source apparently told the tabloid: "Benedict is considered perfect Bond villain material. Work on the next film will begin next year and the plan is for Benedict to be on board. He grew up watching Bond, so it would be a childhood ambition fulfilled. Playing a Bond villain is one of the plum roles in film history and he'd jump at the chance."
