“But during rehearsals I said, ‘You’ll never get to MI6,’” she quipped.
However, the actress, who previously played M in Bond, revealed she thinks Elba really could snag the job after Craig’s departure, adding: “But I think he might.”
Elba has previously addressed the possibility of playing 007, telling Variety: “James Bond is a hugely coveted, iconic, beloved character that takes audiences on this massive escapism journey.
“Of course, if someone said to me, ‘Do you wasn’t to play James Bond?’ I’d be like, ‘Yeah!’ That’s fascinating to me,” he continued.
