As the hunt for the next James Bond continues, many have weighed in with their dream casting, with names like Idris Elba, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Paul Mescal circling the role. For some, the role is overdue to be given to somebody other than a white British dude. But what about a female Bond? Well, the idea has been shot down across the board, most recently by the son of the franchise’s most consistent 007.
In a new interview, Roger Moore’s son, Geoffrey, suggested he’s not actively against a woman playing a vital role in the franchise but that it would be impossible for there to be a female Bond, saying the code number is assigned only to James himself. “Then it’s no longer James Bond,” and thus no longer a James Bond movie. “I mean, she could be 006, 008, or 009…Maybe there will be a ‘From the filmmakers...
