Naomie Harris is the latest Bond Girl in the recent James Bond Edition "Skyfall."
And said preparing for her role as Eva was more "strenuous" than she expected.
"She's very independent, very playful. And what's really exciting for me about the role is that you see her going toe to toe with Bond," said Harris about her character to the Huffington Post. "She's out in the field as a field agent, sees herself just as capable as him firing sniper rifles, Walther MPKs, and just having a blast at the beginning of the movie. Things go a bit wrong and she begins to question whether or not she's right for the field work."
Harris also spoke about the possibility of seeing Idris Elba taking over the James Bond role.
"I didn't realize that there was this talk and then I did a film with Idris [Elba] and he said that he met Barbara Broccoli [James Bond producer] and that it does seem like there is a possibility in the future that there could very well be a black James Bond," she said. "And I would have to vote for Idris because I just finished working with him and he's a great guy."
"Casino Royale" is Harris' personal favorite among all the Bond editions. She says the film made the character of Bond more appealing to her.
"I was more on the edge of my seat, because I really genuinely didn't know what was going to happen to him," the 36-year-old actress said. "Whereas before, they were kind of like cartoon characters. You knew no matter what that they dodged a bullet, wouldn't get hurt, or they never fall for the girl. This movie added the whole element of danger which I loved."
