Next Bond Girl Will Reflect #MeToo Era, Says Director Danny Boyle

Academy Award-winning director Danny Boyle will be replacing Sam Mendes as the man to direct Britain’s most famous pop-cultural export: James Bond. However, the “Trainspotting” director is bringing a modern twist: the Bond girl will reflect the #MeToo era.

Speaking with Page Six, Danny Boyle said that he will be looking to the “modern world” in his portrayal of women. When asked if #MeToo and Time’s Up will influence the women characters, Boyle told Page Six on Thursday, “You write in real time.”
