Details on free runner Sebastien Foucan`s role in Casino Royale (spoilers)

MI6 revealed back in January that Sebastien Foucan will be appearing in Casino Royale, and today details on his character emerged.

Sebastien Foucan gained stardom throughout much of the world when the gymnastics enthusiast helped invent freerunning, a gravity-defying sport that received exposure in the U.S. via a series of Nike commercials.

Now Foucan will employ his high-jumping, obstacle-evading abilities while engaging the new James Bond in one of the most ambitious chase sequences in the history of the action series - reports MTV.

Foucan will make his acting debut as Mollaka, a terrorist targeted by Daniel Craig's Bond during an early sequence in November's 21st Bond film, "Casino Royale."

When a surveillance operation goes awry, Bond is forced to chase Mollaka on foot, risking life and limb as they scurry through a shantytown and across a dangerous construction site.

Currently filming in the Bahamas, "Royale" is based on Ian Fleming's first Bond novel — it will portray some prequel-like moments, including Bond's completion of his first two professional assassinations, which earns him his "00" status.
