With Daniel Craig retired and the next official James Bond film currently in development at Amazon MGM, the conversation among fans around whether the character could one day be depicted as female continues.While the reboot is confirmed to feature the standard male James Bond, the series has already flirted with the idea of female spies stepping into major roles. Now, here’s a look at six possibilities for women who could lead a future Bond story, whether as a separate character, or as a female James Bond.1. NomiCredit: MGM/EON ProductionsIntroduced in No Time to Die (2021), Lashana Lynch’s Nomi inherited the 007 designation after James Bond (Daniel Craig) retired between films. The character’s debut sparked discussion, particularly around the initial trailer, about the possibility of a female Bond. But with Craig’s Bond now dead, the 007 designation could easily revert back to Nomi.2. Paloma (Ana de Armas)Credit: MGM/EON ProductionsAlso from No Time to Die, Paloma (Ana de Armas) is a CIA operative whose standout action sequence demonstrates her skill and charisma. Armas’ most recent performance in this year’s Ballerina: From the World of John Wick further shows her capability in action-heavy roles. A spinoff centered on Paloma could explore new corners of the spy world without altering the main Bond continuity.Related: ‘James Bond’ Reboot Casts ‘Hunger Games’ Actor, First Official Trailer Revealed3. Female Bond in a Separate RebootCredit: Inside the MagicCasting a new actress as James Bond in a standalone reboot offers creative freedom to reimagine the franchise from scratch. This approach would allow filmmakers to alter the character while exploring diverse interpretations of 007. It would be a very divisive among fans, which is why a reboot separate from the main film series would be a good idea.4. Johanna Harwood, AKA 003
