MEDIA RUMOUR
According to a Croatian newspaper this week, "when auditioning for Bond in Casino Royale, Goran Visnjic did such a good job he burned into the minds of the EON psyche. So powerful was his performance that he single handly won the role of next Bond Baddie in the upcoming Bond22 film with Daniel Craig."

"It is rumoured that Goran's agent has confirmed the star is working on something massive and will be taking a well earned break from ER in late 2007. It is rumoured that Goran will be playing Vesper Lynd's former love interest and that his role will be sizable, meanacing and significant to the plot of the upcoming Bond adventure. Bond 22 is continuation of Casino Royale and will be forming a trilogy story for Daniel Craig's rough and tough Bond."

Casting director Debbie McWilliams confirmed to the Australian press in December that Goran Visnjic was screentested for the Bond role but was 'just too young'.

Visnjic reportedly quit his role in the hit television series "ER" earlier this week.
