“Miss Bond doesn’t have the same ring to it,” says actress Trina Parks in reference to black British actress Lashana Lynch being cast as the new 007 in the upcoming “Bond 25” film. Parks made history in 1971 by becoming the first black “Bond Girl” — starring alongside Sean Connery in “Diamonds Are Forever.”
Speaking to The Mirror, Parks said that while she agrees James Bond could indeed be a black man, she could not see the 007 character being a woman.
