Helen Mirren may play a retired spy in "The Thursday Murder Club," but the Oscar winner insists that the new James Bond "has to be a guy."

Dame Helen Mirren has said James Bond should be played by a man, even though she is "such a feminist". In a new interview with Saga Magazine, the Oscar-winning actor said "you can't have a woman. It just doesn't work. James Bond has to be James Bond, otherwise it becomes something else".
