There is another James Bond movie in the works, the 24th in the series of gun-slingin', sex-havin', Russia-or-whoever-it-is-nowadays-hatin' flicks to appear on-screen since Sean Connery kicked the whole thing off. But next year's film, Spectre, features something rarely seen in the Bond world: an age-appropriate co-star.
The so-called "Bond girl," in this film, is Monica Bellucci, age 50. For a franchise that has been built on the idea that Britain's most famous spy has no qualms about romantic entanglements with a teenager (Aliza Gur was a teenager while filming "From Russia With Love"), it's a step forward.

Exactly, filling a cartoonish action film with grandmothers in the sexy roles for the action hero, is not exactly brilliant.
Perhaps he can start using minivans because they are better on gas and more practical for carrying gear and built in defenses, than tiny two seaters.
I agree.
Its more than just about sex.
In a relationship, you should feel like you belong together and when you fight, that’s going to make it better because no couple on earth will see always eye to eye.
A man with the right woman should be a match made in heaven.
But what do I know. :)
At YOUR age she'd still be your daughter.......
OH my goodness, that woman is 50? I should just go jump off the Driscoll bridge right now.
50 is NOT old.
She is obviously VERY talented. Can’t wait to see more of her.
Oh heavens I am in love with that man, he is a super-hottie!
Makes me want to learn Italian.
Did you not go see the movie “Skyfall” ? That was the LAST movie I went to the movie theaters to go see ANY movie, on encouragement from my older sister and that was a little over two years ago. She got killed off.
She has a gap between her teeth.
Don’t know if either of you watch “Sons of Anarchy” on TV. It is a very rough show. But one thing I have liked about it is they do show middle aged romance. OK, there’s a great deal of “romance” and some of it ain’t so romantic, but some of it is middle-aged and I’ve found that quite refreshing.
Do not let “AARP” KNOW that! SARC. :)
Well that works pretty well until:
You feel like you belong together.
You never fight.
You talk and don’t disagree.
You almost never don’t see eye to eye.
You enjoy doing things with them.
Nothing in life seems worthwhile without them.
You love that person as a friend and so much more...
And they leave.
You know a lot more than I do on the subject. I’ll concede that. :^)
I’m happily married to a woman that accepts my flaws, and loves me anyway. Been married 16 years and been with her 20 years.
If she were to die tomorrow, I would date fluffy 20 year olds. I don’t care if they’re a little overweight, plus they’re givers.
oh HELL yeah...

I feel better already that she is 50 and this is coming from someone who is “double nickel”. :)
