Netizens have been discussing potential actresses for the role, with some doubting if a female-led James Bond film is necessary.
Roger Moore as James Bond
When former James Bond Roger Moore’s son Geoffrey Moore was questioned about a female-led James Bond film, his remark sparked numerous discussions on the internet.
A lot of females criticized him on the internet for his response, while some attempted to explain his point of view.
Geoffrey Moore thinks female-led James Bond movies will not work 
Roger Moore and his son Geoffrey Moore
Roger Moore played the role of James Bond in seven films from the James Bond series. The actor was a major part of the James Bond franchise.
Being the son of the former James Bond actor, Geoffrey said in his statement,
“Well, then it’s no longer James Bond. I mean, she could be 006, 008 or 009. In the last Bond, I think Lashana Lynch being 007 temporarily was the confusion.
That she was 007 and then said, “I’ve got to give it back to Bond. It’s his number.” So, I think that’s very good. I think they were also testing the waters.
Maybe there will be a “From the filmmakers of James Bond comes Jane or Jemima Bond” or whatever.
It wouldn’t be the same because it’s Bond. It’s Fleming’s Bond. It’s a guy, unfortunately. In today’s world, a woman would be great.
“If you look at Charlize Theron in Atomic Blonde…I mean, woman can certainly pull it off and certainly do the fight sequences.
And even if not, as a species, ladies are probably smarter! But in terms of the role itself, Fleming’s Bond is James Bond.
Do women deserve their own, equally successful franchise? It’s right, and they should.
But if you want to do a female Bond, you can’t just call her “James Bond.” Personally, I don’t think that would work.”
Many people have responded with enthusiasm over the news of a woman playing the role of James Bond in the upcoming projects from the series.
Nothing is yet finalized but many people are still not ready to accept a female-led James Bond movie.
