The first black James Bond has been reportedly adopted and she is a female in the person of Marvel star, Lashana Lynch. She will feature in the upcoming Bond movie.
According to report by Daily Mail, the upcoming, yet-to-be-titled 25th James Bond film will reveal black British actor as the new agent.
However, Daniel Craig, who plays James Bond will also feature by coming out of retirement for one final mission although his famous code name will no longer be his.
The revelation that Lynch will take over the agents iconic code name follows years of speculation over who will replace Craig as the British spy.
About the project, Waller-Bridge said, โThere’s been a lot of talk about whether or not Bond is relevant now because of who he is and the way he treats women.
โI think that’s bollocks. I think he’s absolutely relevant now.
โ[The franchise] has just got to grow. It has just got to evolve, and the important thing is that the film treats the women properly.
โHe doesn’t have to. He needs to be true to his character,โ she said.
Lynch, a 31-year-old from Hammersmith, is best known for playing fighter pilot Maria Rambeau and best friend to Brie Larson in ‘Captain Marvel’.
