Naomie Harris talks the future of Bond

In issue 214 of Total Film magazine , Bond's brand new Miss Moneypenny, Naomie Harris, drops some tantalising hints about the future of 007.

Inside the issue - which is available for just £1.99 on your iPad , Harris reveals that her first Bond film, Skyfall , won't necessarily be her last, adding that Bond 24 could pick up threads left hanging by Skyfall .

“I feel like Skyfall is one part of a continuing story," the 37-year-old Brit says. "It needs completing and it needs the same storyteller."

With Sam Mendes on board to direct Bond 24 , it looks like Harris should get her wish. Meanwhile, she's excited at the prospect of working with Daniel Craig again.

"I really got on with Daniel," she smiles. "It would be strange if someone else took the role. He's a brilliant Bond for our times. And I'm so relieved [ about Mendes returning ]. He chose me and had a vision for my character.

"I'd feel really weird working for someone who hadn't chosen me and didn't have that vision. I just want him to see it through."

Bond 24 o pens in the UK on 23 October 2015.
