Lenny Kravitz is a new Bond villain Bawma

Bond game “007 First Light” (2026) will introduce a new Bond villain Pirate King Bawma, who will be played by a rock icon Lenny Kravitz. He is making his video game debut. Kravitz comments about the role:

“The Bond franchise has such an incredible legacy in video games, so to step into it with a brand‑new character like Bawma is amazing. He’s magnetic and unpredictable, there’s danger in him, but also heart and purpose. He’s not just a man with power; he is a man who has to fight for every inch of it. Bringing that energy into 007’s world felt incredible.”

Leonard Albert Kravitz (born May 26, 1964) is an American singer, musician, songwriter, record producer, and actor. His debut album “Let Love Rule” (1989) was characterized by a blend of rock, funk, reggae, hard rock, soul, and R&B, along with his subsequent releases.

Kravitz has had hit singles, including “It Ain’t Over ’til It’s Over” (1991) and “Again” (2000), both of which peaked within the Billboard Hot 100’s top ten. (Wikipedia)
