Adele has reportedly been flown to Los Angeles by MGM bosses to secretly record new soundtrack for the upcoming James Bond film 'Spectre.'

An MGM source said that while it was believed that the 22-year-old Oscar winning 'Skyfall' singer was in town for her new album, she was actually working on a music idea for the spy flick, the Mirror reported.

Though she wasn't in touch with the bosses for a few weeks, as soon as Adele said she had great plans for the theme, they flew her over, but will still take a call on whether the tune was the one they wanted for the film, added the insider.

Adele had bagged a Golden Globe, Bafta and Oscar for the previous Bond theme, 'Skyfall', which became the highest-grossing 007 adventure of all time.

If she records another theme, it would make her the first artist to sing more than one since Shirley Bassey's powerful pipes graced 'Goldfinger,' 'Diamonds Are Forever' and 'Moonraker.
