Naomie Harris in recent interviews has described her character, "Field Agent Eve," as a female version of Bond. She has also numerous times shaken off rumors of her playing the classic Bond character Miss Moneypenny, calling it "a good, racy rumor."
So, this rumor has been put to rest, right? Not so fast. Over at
Den of Geek an eagle-eyed member of their site, Dominic Philpot, spotted an amazing find. He was looking through the March issue for
Dial A Flight , which is a travel magazine and found an article written by Naomie Harris titled,
“Moneypenny in Paradise!”
Wait, it gets better, at the end of the article she states:
“There will certainly be some exotic locations, but as Miss Moneypenny I’ll probably get no further than Pinewood Studios!”

Just to feel even more comfortable Dial A Flight magazine even included a disclaimer at the bottom,
"This article was featured in the March 2012 DialAFlight magazine. All information was correct at time of going to print." Like I said slam dunk!
