The latest issue of Empire magazine is proving to be wealth of new images, as we've already gotten sneak peaks at Marvel's Daredevil and Jurassic World. Now, they bring us the very first official look at Guardians of the Galaxy break out star Dave Bautista as the evil henchman Mr. Hinx in Spectre, who has been compared to such classic Bond villains as Jaws and Oddjob. We also get a sneak peek at 007 newcomer Léa Seydoux as the latest Bond girl Dr. Madeline Swann.

Earlier in the week, we got to see Empire's two magazine covers that feature Spectre star Daniel Craig as James Bond. The inside of the magazine also features an in-depth look at the production, including an interview with WWE Superstar Dave Bautista. About taking on the soon-to-be iconic role of Mr. Hinx he says:

"When I came over to meet Sam [Mendes], I only asked two questions. I asked him if Mr. Hinx was a badass. He said, 'Yes, he's a badass.' I said, 'Well, is Mr. Hinx intelligent?' He said, 'Very.' That's what I like about Mr. Hinx. He's very well-dressed and very well-mannered. I'm not just here to fight people. He has a sense of humour. He definitely knows what a metaphor is."

Empire also catches up with relative newcomer Léa Seydoux. She offers some insight into Dr. Swann, revealing that we may have some misconceptions about her character:

"I don't consider myself a Bond girl. I think I'm not really the stereotyped Bond girl. I feel quite different. You can't be like, 'Oh, James.' You have to find something else. She's not a fighter, she's a doctor. She fights in another way."

In Spectre, a cryptic message from Bond's past sends him on a trail to uncover a sinister organization. While M battles political forces to keep the secret service alive, Bond peels back the layers of deceit to reveal the terrible truth behind Spectre. While we anxiously await its November release date, take a look at the latest from the 24th Bond adventure:
