In a now-deleted social post from the official 007 social media account, Fly Away singer Lenny Kravitz was unmasked as playing a First Light character named Bawma, who shares Kravitz's likeness. And while the post may have been swiftly removed, the internet still took notice — seemingly letting a further secret out ahead of tonight's big gaming awards and announcement event. "He rose from nothing, broke free, and built his own Kindom of Aleph," the now-deleted post read. "Introducing Bawma, the largest black-market dealer in the Western Hemisphere who's as charismatic as he is unpredictable." The accompanying video, now also deleted, shows clearly that Bawma is a villain, as he has strung up Bond and threatens to drop him into a pit packed with crocodiles. Kravitz is most famous for his lengthy Grammy Award-winning musical career, but the star also holds a handful of acting credits, most notably for his work in The Hunger Games and its sequel Catching Fire, as hero Katniss Everdeen's fashionable aide Cinna. Of course, Kravitz is not the first big name set to appear in 007: First Light, the upcoming James Bond blockbuster in development at Hitman developer IO Interactive.
