Game Of Thrones star Richard Madden has quashed rumours of being the next James Bond in the coveted franchise. "It's all just noise," he said in an interview to an international publication.

He claims his association with the spy film could be linked to his role of Sergeant David Budd in Bodyguard. "By March, there will be another British TV show with another young male actor, and then he'll be the next James Bond for the following two months." Rumours of Idris Elba being cast in the series have also done the rounds.
