Skyfall, was the first James Bond film to provide a backstory for Miss Moneypenny (Naomie Harris), and even a first name, Eve. According to the Daily Mail she won't be stuck behind a desk, and flirting with 007 (Daniel Craig). Come check it out!
Baz Bamigboye of the Daily Mail is reporting that Naomie Harris' Eve Moneypenny won't be stuck behind a desk for the next James Bond film, even though her character at the end of Skyfall stated that she was retiring from field work to become Mallory's personal secretary. "Director Sam Mendes, Craig, and producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson are all big fans of Naomie’s and don’t want her to be too desk-bound," Baz reports, "as other Moneypennys have been. ‘The idea formulating in Bond-land is for Naomie to be much more of a sidekick to James, and for her to get out and harm the bad guys,’ an executive close to the production told me. John Logan is still in the process of writing script. Bond 24 won't hit UK theaters until October 23th, 2015 and November 6th, 2015 in the US.
Daniel Craig is back as James Bond 007 in SKYFALL, the 23rd installment of the longest-running film franchise in history. In SKYFALL, Bond's loyalty to M (Judi Dench) is tested as her past returns to haunt her. 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost. When Bond's latest assignment goes gravely wrong and agents around the world are exposed, MI6 is attacked forcing M to relocate the agency. These events cause her authority and position to be challenged by Mallory (Ralph Fiennes), the new Chairman of the Intelligence and Security Committee. With MI6 now compromised from both inside and out, M is left with one ally she can trust: Bond. 007 takes to the shadows - aided only by field agent Eve (Naomie Harris) - following a trail to the mysterious Silva (Javier Bardem), whose lethal and hidden motives have yet to reveal themselves.
