Helen Mirren has expressed her views against casting a woman as James Bond, citing the franchise's deep-rooted sexism. While she appreciates former Bond actor Pierce Brosnan, she has been critical of how the series portrays women. Instead, she advocates for telling real stories about extraordinary female spies who have been vital in espionage history. The future of the Bond character remains uncertain after a significant deal with Amazon MGM Studios for creative control, igniting discussions about Bond's identity beyond gender preferences.
The whole series of James Bond, it was not my thing. I never liked the way women were in James Bond.
The whole concept of James Bond is drenched and born out of profound sexism. Women have always been a major and incredibly important part of the Secret Service.
