She became the first female M in 1995’s Goldeneye and has appeared in every James Bond movie since. However, 50th-anniversary movie Skyfall saw her become something of a Bond girl in the film’s third act before she died in 007’s arms. Three years later Dench reprised the role for a posthumous video of M in Spectre, leaving a message in the event of her death. And now it’s been confirmed her M will cameo in the upcoming Bond 25.
The confirmation came yesterday when Prince Charles visited the Pinewood Studios set of Bond 25.
In the pictures, the heir to the throne has a look around the office of the M played by Ralph Fiennes who replaced Dench.
In the snaps, Prince Charles can be seen sharing a joke with Fiennes, Daniel Craig and director Cary Fukunaga.
But what really caught the eye was one of the future King with Miss Moneypenny actress Naomie Harris.
He certainly wouldn’t be the first actor to play M with different Bond actors.
Bernard Lee starred opposite Sir Sean Connery, George Lazenby and Sir Roger Moore.
While Robert Brown played M in the latter’s later films and Timothy Dalton’s two movies.
Then Dench was introduced as M in Pierce Brosnan’s films, before returning for the big reboot opposite Craig.
Bond 25 is released in UK cinemas on April 3, 2020.
