Olivia Wilde and Freida Pinto both deny tabloid rumours about their Bond 23 involvement

Despite the "Slumdog Millionaire" star's first denial of knowledge of and/or involvement in the Bond 23 production, last week tabloids 'confirmed' Pinto and Olivia Wilde - co -star of "House M.D." - as having signed onto roles in the new James Bond movie. Wilde was rumoured to have played a "double-crossing UN worker based in Afghanistan".

In the last 24 hours both actresses had spoken out against the claims of the The Daily Mirror's unidentified source.

"I would like to confirm that as of today, Freida Pinto has not been approached to be part of the next 'Bond' film," emphasises Pinto's representative.

Likewise, Wilde confirmed in person via her twitter.com account that she has "no plans" to be involved in Bond 23 and fans might be getting confused with her "doing Cowboys & Aliens with Daniel Craig".
