Pierce Brosnan Aligns with Helen Mirren’s Critique of James Bond’s Sexism

The former 007 actor supports Mirren's view of the franchise's outdated portrayal of women, as Amazon MGM Studios plans its next chapter for Bond.

Pierce Brosnan agrees with Helen Mirren's statement that the James Bond franchise is 'drenched and born out of profound sexism.'
Mirren has criticized the franchise’s historical portrayal of women and opposes the idea of recasting Bond with a female actor, advocating instead for original stories about women in espionage.
Brosnan, who starred in four Bond films, acknowledged the conflict between Ian Fleming's original vision and modern expectations for representation.
Amazon MGM Studios now holds creative control of the franchise and has promised a 'fresh, exotic new' chapter while retaining Bond's traditional identity.
The debate over the franchise’s future highlights broader industry discussions about inclusivity and the evolving portrayal of women in media.
