Dame Helen Mirren has said James Bond should be played by a man, even though she is "such a feminist".
In a new interview with Saga Magazine, the Oscar-winning actress said "you can't have a woman. It just doesn't work. James Bond has to be James Bond, otherwise it becomes something else".
Amazon MGM Studios will produce the next iteration of the spy franchise, with Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight set to write what will become the 26th film in the series.
The US production and distribution company previously said it was planning a "fresh" take on franchise but would honour the "legacy" of the "iconic character".

“Put a chick in it. Make her gay.” Yeah, that’s the ticket.
Yes..men be men and not pretend to be women...women,the same....we are not interchangeable.
It sucks when they ruin everything we grew up with
Bond, Dr Who, Star Trek, Star Wars, Truth Justice, and the American Way etc...
RE: Next thing they’ll tell us that Bond girls have to be chicks.
I remember the tabloid photo with the teaser of which woman wasn’t a woman.
Caroline Cossey, also known as Tula, is a transgender model and actress who appeared as an extra in the 1981 James Bond film For Your Eyes Only alongside Roger Moore.
After the film’s release, she was outed as transgender by the British tabloid “News of the World”. Cossey has since become an advocate for transgender rights. And posed in
a Playboy shooting.
I liked that movie, along with the related What’s New, Pussycat.
I’ve read the books, seen all the early films. No amount of retooling will make it work for me.
They want another 007 give him a different name.
The story behind the making of the movie is a hoot, too.
Hollyweird doesn’t change.
Where can I find the story?
Have some Hollywood books, of course but wonder.
He has to be a white, straight, British guy.
I didn’t know Brits say “guy.” But then, Helen has spent a lot of time in the U.S. lately with all her Old West tv shows.
James Bond is a white male British secret agent. That’s how he was written and that’s who he is.
Now, if you want a female agent or a black female spy or a black lesbian, transgender Albanian male person, you can write a book and make movies about that person.
That’s how it works and everyone would ok with any character that’s entertaining. Leave James Bond alone. He’s fine.
“Helen Mirren is now 80. Is that too old to be cancelled by the woke crowd?”
She is pretty bad ass in the new series Mobland. Wife to Pierce Bronson, but the meaner, nastier and possible smarter of the two whom head up a London crime family.
All true. They will try to cancel her anyway
What if Pussy Galore married James Bond and had a daughter...
Ursula Andress, Paula Prentis, and Romy Schneider what’s not to like?!
You can’t have a woman James Bond it just doesn’t work.
It’s like having a woman John Wayne.
You can’t have a woman James Bond it just doesn’t work.
It’s like having a woman John Wayne.
Bond. Pussy Bond. Agent for hire. Ho ho yo.
Fully agree.
