# Dame Helen Mirren says 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 a woman just won’t work. Amazon MGM Studios will produce the next iteration of the spy franchise, with Steven Knight set to write what will become the 26th film in the series. At 80, Dame Helen is currently starring opposite former James Bond actor Pierce Brosnan in the film adaption of The Thursday Murder Club.
