Assuming she's playing James Bond, and not some feminized re-imagining (the character must be addressed as James and referred to using He/Him/His), I'm fine with this. If she can walk, talk, look, and kill people like Bond, and flirt with Bond Girls like Bond, then go for it.

And if you can find a guy to be your Bond Girl, that's cool too - as long as we're talking about a heteronormatively feminine Bond Girl here and not some gay cowboy looking piece of man candy. Same rules apply, he has to be a convincing Bond Girl. I'd consider it cheating to cast a trans woman in this role, as it's ironically less queer that way.

In short, genderbend the cast all you want, as long as the script stays the same.

Even if it were, you wouldn't wanna listen to it!
Of course she does it would a boon to her career. The problem is that she's a talentless hack who got to where she is solely through nepotism.
Pretty sure I've never even seen a full Bond movie so

How about they make another special agent from another country and make her a woman Why does it have to be 007?

Because they need to cash in on the 007 brand to get asses in movie theater seats. Whether or not I agree with this, I can just see an executive scratching his head and going, " Who wants to see a movie about some random chick in the James Bond universe when we could just make another James Bond movie? "

No, no, no. Make it Jane Bond and her number can be 8007 (reads LOOB upside-down; it would be great laffs in teh theater)
Working in a team is great! It always helps to have someone else to blame.
I've only read Casino Royale but it was absolute trash.
I liked the third of the book where he was getting kicked in the balls though. That was a good 200 pages. ffs
One day dude, I'm just gonna get off the bus, and I'm gonna run in the woods and never come back, and when I come back I'm gonna be the knife master!

BOND IS A MAN, unlike Dr who who can regenerate as either of the 2

IF they make Jane Bone better be his sister, mother, cousin or dauther... If would like the idea as long as if is a diferent character
I don't mind if a woman plays as Agent 007 since it is just a callsign and there have been different Agent 007 over the years. But to play as James Bond specifically seems odd.

A woman could play Bond, but Cara is not a good choice
Jane Bond. With lots of hot Bond Guys.
It's okay, I have no idea who I am either.

That seems painfully convoluted and has far too many caveats to be adhered to by hollywood which is very producer/exec driven (read:mercurial), so to me it sounds like you'd be best served by the bottom option...?
Mod me? You don't even know me!
Jane, Jane Bond.
Double O Vagina. Sounds more like a Porn.
I'm President of the Galaxy, heh, I don't get a lot of Time, for Reading.

But that's no longer a Bond movie at its core.
If you're lacking strong female characters with plenty of male eye candy then I wish you all the best but that's something you need to seek out or grow support for-why would you want to hijack an existing franchise instead making one all your own that can be exactly what you want?

They already tried that couple times and it had varying degrees of success, but they're still essentially a Bond girl.

Double O Vag. Ok that's better.

Okay, I don't fucking care.

That's what * I * want if they're going to do this.

Then you should check out Salt, the Tomb Raider, Divergent or Hunger Games series, Lucy and I hear Atomic Blonde is fairly decent. If you wait for hollywood to do what you want, you're going to want to bring a book for the wait.

It was, in the 80s.

Though she was 0069, for obvious reasons.

"Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76
"POwned again." --- blight family
She can stick that dream, and her eyebrows, up her pooper.

Besides, Daniel Craig is still playing James Bond, he confirmed this past week for number 25.
This is my signature, there are many others like it, but this one is mine.
If you take 110% of what I say seriously then you're gonna have a bad time.

.....uh, no. Those aren't women playing men. If Cara is going to play James Bond, I damn well want her to play James Bond.

I don't give a shit if Hollywood caters to me or not. In fact, they'd go out of business catering to my tastes because what I like is objectionable.
