Academy award-winning actress Dame Judi Dench has provided some insight into the physical attributes of her former co-star, Daniel Craig.
According to a report by AHN, Dench has referred to Craig’s genitalia as an “absolute monster.”
This comment has stirred up curiosity among fans and critics of the James Bond franchise.
The pair starred together in the 2006 Bond film, “Casino Royale.” Dench played the role of M, the head of the secret service, while Craig played the iconic role of James Bond for the first time.
It is reported that Dench caught a glimpse of Craig’s impressive package while he was getting dressed in his trailer, which was situated opposite her own.
In an interview with the Daily Star newspaper, Dench expressed surprise at her own remark, “It’s an absolute monster! Maybe I shouldn’t have said that.
How uncouth of me!” It is unclear whether Craig was aware of the comment made by his former co-star.
For those who are curious, Craig did bare all in “Casino Royale.” In the film, the actor agreed to shoot racy sex scenes with co-star Eva Green in the nude to make the sequences more realistic.
In one scene, Craig is seen naked on a yacht with Green, who played double agent Vesper Lynd, in just a sarong.
The actor then gets to whip off the skimpy garment before the pair go skinny-dipping in the ocean.
The revelation made by Dame Judi Dench has caused a stir among fans of the franchise, as it is rare for actors to discuss each other’s physical attributes in public.
However, some have pointed out that it is not the first time the topic has come up in the context of James Bond. In the 2015 book “Some Kind of Hero:
The Remarkable Story of the James Bond Films,” it was claimed that former Bond actor Roger Moore was “less than impressively endowed.”
The discussion around Craig’s anatomy raises questions about the objectification of actors and the pressure to conform to certain physical ideals.
While some may see Dench’s comment as harmless, others may view it as perpetuating a culture of body shaming and hypersexualization.
It is worth noting that Daniel Craig is not the first Bond actor to bare all on screen.
In the 1999 film “The World Is Not Enough,” Pierce Brosnan can be seen in a steamy scene with co-star Denise Richards. In the scene, Brosnan is seen naked from the waist up, while Richards is shown in her underwear.
The James Bond franchise has a long history of featuring sexually explicit content, and it has often been criticized for its treatment of women.
However, in recent years, the series has made efforts to address these criticisms and present more nuanced portrayals of female characters.
