Geoffrey Moore followed his late father, Sir Roger Moore, into the acting business and he's now channelling his father's most famous credit as James Bond in his latest role.

Geoffrey will be starring in Knightfall an upcoming spy thriller which is set to land on towards the end of the year. The intriguing premise reads: "Knightfall centres on a botched MI5 bio weapon raid which leaves science officer Ros Knight on the run from her own team – as well as a terrifying international hitman - and seeking refuge at the remote country home of her estranged father, legendary spy-catcher Charles Knight."

Geoffrey will take on the role of Hugh, a "dashing MI5 agent" who will serve as the love interest for main character Ros Knight, who will be played by Jeanine Nerissa Sothcott. The duo will also be joined by Michael Paré, who will portray Matthew, a "charming ex-CIA agent".

HELLO! has seen images from the upcoming film and Geoffrey certainly resembles his father's most iconic role as he's seen taking on baddies in a rain-filled location with his gun fully drawn.
