    I'm not a fan of May being a part of MI6 or some element of Bond's work. It feels like May is more part of Bond's home life, completely separate from work. Adding her to some element of MI6 loses the charm of seeing Bond's home life. Obviously the film can't just stop for a scene with May, so I'd rather not see her included than have her be a part of MI6 in some way.

    Having a live-in (?) housekeeper seems a bit weird for Bond in 2025, unless it's AI May! Or maybe May as a neighbor, but then again, who wants purely domestic scenes in a Bond film?!? Some people sure didn't like it in NTTD!

    Well, I have a friend who is an housekeeper. Not a live-in one, but that's her job. Who knows, maybe some.od her clients are MI6 and she doesn't know it.

    Yes, given the time that's elapsed since NTTD, I'd say the likelihood is a complete change. EON might've pulled the Dench trick twice and had Fiennes play a different version of M, but I'm not sure that Amazon would bother with someone else's in-joke. So, yeh: all new.

    Villeneuve will likely want an all-new supporting cast that puts his own stamp on it. Possibly someone from one of his films. Any Brits from his recent films? I mean, Emily Blunt is always welcome.

    I think we need someone like Caroline Bliss for Moneypenny, she played so well with much younger Bond.

    As much as she’s a lovely lady, and not terrible. I always thought Caroline Bliss was the weakest of the EON Moneypenny’s

    My vote goes to Naomie Harris.
