Gone Girl actress Rosamund Pike would make a “brilliant” James Bond, according to Labour leader Ed Milband.
Miliband suggested that there was no reason why 007 could not be recast with a female lead in the future saying: “This is 2015 after all, I think we can move with the times.”
“Rosamund Pike would make a great Bond – I think she’s a great British actress, she’d make a great Bond,” he added when speaking to Magic Radio which said it wouldn’t ask “just political questions”.
He also revealed that while he likes both Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith his music taste is more 80s, if at all.
“I’m a bit of an 80s fan, I like bad taste – things like A-ha Take On Me.
“I’m aware of both Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith – I’ve heard them on radio and both of them are huge exports – they’re great artists. It’s brilliant we have a great number of great British artists, it makes us incredibly proud.
“Ellie Goulding invited me to a charity concert recently and Bastille caught my eye – I thought they were brilliant.”
