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.

In the photo in the article it looks like Daniel Craig is working on 3 chins. Time for a new James Bond.
Dang. Diana Rigg is the same age as my mother.
oops... preview is your friend
If it’s not Nigella Lawson, I have no interest in some older broad. Sorry.
Maybe Helen Mirren.
If/When she is single again, SHE’S MINE.
Beautiful!
Saw that too and agree.
I'm going to drop out of my normal tongue-in-cheek persona for a moment and say something serious. (Oh, Good Lord!)
I believe that there is a real link between the interchangeable androgyny of these two pop icons and the growing epidemic of gender confusion we see appearing in kids as young as six and seven who "decide" that God made a mistake when He assigned their genitals.
Like all of the intertwined agendas coming from the Left, the destruction of traditional Male/Female models is in some cases purposeful and in other cases the result of subliminal acquiescence. But whatever the level of complicity at the source, the result is that the purposeful blurring of the lines between men and women is an essential element in the destruction of the nuclear family and with it, the fabric of the American Judeo-Christian experience.
James Bond may not have been a good model for a Leave It To Beaver family man, but at least he had it straight when it came to his sexual identity. (Pun fully intended.)
True.. when Hollywierd makes Bond gay, that will be that last straw on movies...
I’ll miss Judi Dench! She was great in the British show ‘As Time Goes By’
My wife agrees with you...
No sex happened (Thank God) but Judy Dench was arguably the main Bond girl in the last movie.
F. catus Galore (Honor Blackman; don’t want to rile up the HoJo brunchers) was older than 007 (Sean Connery) in “Goldfinger”.
As far as this flick goes, the marvelous Monica Bellucci is several years older than Daniel Craig.
Just noticed your tagline. Sorry for your loss.
I am looking forward to seeing Monica B in the next Bond film.
She was good in several movies in the past...MALENA was a fine movie...
Yes, she is older than Daniel Craig...I think that is OK...
Lea Seydoux was in MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: GHOST PROTOCOL as a villainess. She was in a fight with Paula Patton character.
She will probably play a similar character in SPECTRE...
Naomi Harris...She is fine as Moneypenny.
OHMSS was a good Bond flick...George Lazenby was OK...He was no Sean Connery...But, still...
By the way, OHMSS was a good novel to read also...
