In a move nobody expected, musician Lenny Kravitz is set to appear in 007 First Light as one of Bond's adversaries.

He plays a villain named Bawma, who seems to be the criminal kingpin of a place called Aleph in Mauritania.

Per the trailer, it seems Bawma will capture Bond in a very, well, James Bond fashion; we see the hero suspended upside down above a pit filled with crocodiles.

Exactly how you'll get out of that jam is not known, but it sets the same outlandish tone seen in some of the older movies, which we're here for.

We'd wager that Bawma won't be the main antagonist of the game, but will be an early or minor villain in the overall story.

The game is due fairly soon, releasing on 27th March, 2026, so there's not long to go before we see who else Bond will be up against.
