Reed Morano's 'The Rhythm Section' is a thriller about a female assassin. But, it is not a female James Bond movie contrary to the speculations. E! News reports, the leading lady of the movie, Blake Lively has been rumoured to play the female version of 007, as Barbara Broccoli, the magnate producer whose family has been solely responsible for the franchise, is producing the movie, but there is no truth to it.

In the upcoming release, Blake's character receives her training as an assassin from an exiled MI6 agent living in Scotland and-- in the course of her revenge -- disguises herself as a chemical blonde one moment and a German anarchist the next.
