Daniel Craig Says Bond Girls Don't Exist Anymore

With No Time to Die now opening across the majority of international markets, Daniel Craig has given his thoughts on one particularly controversial aspect of the James Bond franchise: Bond Girls. Since the first time audiences saw James Bond on screen with Dr. No in 1962, Bond Girls have been a staple in the long-running franchise. The characters, such as Pussy Galore and Honey Ryder, are most often conventionally attractive and significantly younger than 007, becoming Bond’s short-term romantic interest of the film.

In newer Bond films, women have been portrayed in a more diverse range of roles, with Judi Dench recently playing Bond’s superior officer, M. However, the iconic spy-thriller franchise has come under increasing scrutiny over its historic depiction of women, with questions being raised on whether the titular character’s behavior and attitude towards them is appropriate for modern audiences. Newer movies in the franchise have sought to address the perceived problem by writing women into the movies who have a more equal power dynamic with Bond, most recently with Lashana Lynch as Nomi, the new 007 agent in No Time to Die.

Now, following the release of No Time to Die, Craig has revealed his own thoughts on the topic of Bond Girls. Speaking with EW, Craig says he feels he has to correct people about the franchise, going as far as to state that Bond Girls "don’t exist anymore." Read Craig’s full comments below:

"No more Bond girls. They don’t exist anymore. They may exist again, but not in my movies.”

The honesty of Craig’s comments might come as a surprise to some Bond fans, but Craig hasn’t shied away from being outspoken during his tenure as Bond. In the past Craig has been surprisingly direct about not wanting to continue playing Bond, and has previously gone as far as to say that he doesn’t care who takes over as the character after him.

Beyond Craig’s own comments, the No Time to Die production team had clearly given thought to the onscreen portrayal of Bond’s relationship with women. At Daniel Craig’s own request, Phoebe Waller-Bridge was brought in to liven up and improve the script of No Time to Die, being asked to particularly focus on the development of the film’s characters. With Lashana Lynch, Ana de Armas, and Léa Seydoux each portraying characters who go beyond the classic Bond Girl archetype, it seems clear that the Bond franchise is heading towards increasingly equal gender dynamics. What is less clear is whether or not this new direction will continue into the future with a new iteration of 007.
