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.

Absolutely. I'd agree that is the explanation for some older men's ability to attract younger women. (And I say that as a woman myself.) Money and power have something to do with it, too.
But, these women I know - I guess they're cougars, really, lol - tend to stay young-looking. They complain that men their age have pot bellies. Another woman once complained to me that men her age "act old," talk about their ailments too much, and never want to have any fun.
Yeah, life is grand. And eventually we all grow older... if we're lucky. ;-) Some just grow older more slowly than others.
:-) By the time the movie hits the theaters, he’ll surely be all cleaned-up and looking nice. That could be just a bad photo.
WOW, OK, all is right with James Bond.
“I’m still mad they killed her off.”
Me too! I always thought she was the best Bond girl. I think On Her Majesty’s Secret Service is underrated as a Bond movie too. George Lazenby - “the forgotten Bond” - did a pretty good job.
She really needs to work on her posture.
And THAT sir is also an understatement!

Not at all inappropriate, and it was clearly made with her consent...
Should tag this thread PG 13.
There, fixed!
So what is wrong with a hot Cougar?
That could just be a bad photo of Madonna in #44, too.

But I guess they had to get rid of Judi and their love to open the way for Monica Bellucci.
I'm sure many women are frustrated by it ... but then reality intrudes, and there is not much point in being "insulted" by reality. The human species is hard-wired in certain respects. This is one of them.
We may live in a society in which the powers that be decree that gender is an arbitrary social construct, but that still isn't going to make a guy pick up the phone.
George Lazenby - b. 1939
Diana Rigg - b. 1938
Bond WILL be gay sooner or later. They hinted at this in the pathetic Solace film.
First glance I saw “Tired of Texas” and thought, WHAT? Need to find my glasses.
Everyone makes that mistake. :-)
He’ll i am 45 an hope she haunts my dreams.
Close.
Bieber and Miley are going to co-star as Bond and his Bond Girl.
They will get away from the bad guys by disguising themselves as one another -
(It is expected that this will require minimal make-up and zero prosthetic enhancements.)
You obviously don't know what a relationship with a millenial is like... they are certainly not "givers" (even the fat ones)... they are more like dismissive, abusive, suspicious, disconnected, broken sociopaths.
Not "giving"... not at all.
