Monique Bond is the mother of James Bond and the spouse of Andrew BondAndrew Bond is the father of James Bond and the spouse of Monique Bond. Like his wife, the character has only a brief mention in Fleming's penultimate novel, You Only Live Twice. Although alluded to in 1995's GoldenEye and 2012's Skyfall, he has never been portrayed in film.https://jamesbond.fandom.com › wiki › Andrew_BondYou Only Live TwiceYou Only Live Twice is a 1967 spy film and the fifth in the James Bond series produced by Eon Productions, starring Sean Connery as the fictional MI6 agent James Bond.https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › You_Only_Live_Twice_(film)
M is a codename held by a number of fictional characters in Ian Fleming's James Bond book and film series; the characters are the current or past Chief of the Secret Intelligence Service, the agency known as MI6. Fleming based the character on a number of people he knew who commanded sections of British intelligence.
What does M stand for? M is the head of MI6 and stands for for "Missions" – to identify that the incumbent is the head of the Missions Department. M is not one character, but rather a role that has been held by various characters across the 25 films.
Though no biological or legal connection is ever drawn, Silva explicitly refers to M as his mother, and he and Bond as her sons, with lines such as "mommy was very bad." But the labeling of M as a "mother" is intended as a metaphor.
Suddenly, it all made sense. Silva, thought to be in Hong Kong, was M's son – adopted, possibly, but undeniably her son.
He is a former MI6 agent who was betrayed by M when she turned him over to the Chinese government in 1997 during a mission in Hong Kong. Fifteen years later, Silva commits a series of terrorist attacks as part of a larger plan to publicly discredit and kill her as reveng for her betrayel.
Unfortunately, M dies from a gunshot wound—not even from Silva. Quite an ignominious way to go after such a dramatic struggle. But M gives Bond a quantum of solace, if you will, with her final words. She looks at him and says, "I did get one thing right."
And in 'Skyfall', Kincaid the groundskeeper refers to her as Emma, although many fans believe this is because he believes Bond to be calling her 'Em'.
He is portrayed by Javier Bardem. A former MI6 agent, he turns to cyberterrorism and begins targeting the agency he used to work for as part of a plan to get revenge against M, against whom he holds a homicidal grudge.
Madeleine is the daughter of SPECTRE agent, Mr. White and his wife. In 1998, Lyutsifer Safin came to the White house in Nittedal, Norway to kill Mr. White; who had murdered his entire family on orders from SPECTRE leader Ernst Stavro Blofeld.
Bérénice Lim Marlohe (born 19 May 1979) is a French actress. She played anti-heroine Bond girl Sévérine in the twenty-third James Bond film Skyfall.
Q is a fictional character in the James Bond films and film novelisations. Q (standing for Quartermaster), like M, is a job title rather than a name. He is the head of Q Branch (or later Q Division), the fictional research and development division of the British Secret Service.
Why is James Bond known as agent 007 and not any other number (like 008 or something else? Fictional MI6 agent James Bond possesses the Licence to Kill which is why he is a '00' agent. The '7' means Bond is the seventh agent to receive this title.
"M" is a code letter for the head of the British Secret Intelligence Service, also known as MI6. In short, M is James Bond's boss.
"MI5/MI6" were the original designations when both organisations came under the War Office, now the MOD - "MI" stands for military intelligence. Their official names (acquired in the 30s) are the Security Service (MI5) and SIS, the Secret Intelligence Service (MI6).
Dame Judi Dench played M in seven Bond films over 17 years, from GOLDENEYE (1995) to SKYFALL (2012) and made a cameo in SPECTRE (2015). Daniel Craig on Dench; “Judi Dench can say a hundred words and make them sound wonderful, but can also give one look and break your heart.”
Although they are both happy together, Madeleine knows Bond still has lingering thoughts about Vesper Lynd, whom she points out is buried close to them. She encourages to let her go, doing the same with her memory of Safin by writing “masked man” in French on a piece of paper and burning it.
During the climactic and spectacular Skyfall estate shootout, one of Raoul Silva's henchmen manages to wound her, and despite fighting on, M ultimately dies in Bond's arms.
Dench's head of MI6 dies at the hand of a long-standing foe Silva (Javier Bardem) at the film's dramatic climax, and in Mendes' eyes it was more emotionally powerful than fazing her out between eras (as had happened when Dench took on the role from Robert Brown in 1995's GoldenEye).
The villain lays siege to the estate, during which M is fatally injured. She flees to the estate's chapel; where she is intercepted by Silva, who forces his gun into her hand - goading her to kill them both. Bond arrives and kills him, but M succumbs to her wound and dies uttering, "I did get one thing right."
During the filming of Skyfall, the fact that Fiennes was to become the new M was a closely guarded secret. Ralph Fiennes is the youngest actor in the role of M, being 49 when he first appeared in the role.
The deserted island of Bond's adversary Silva in the movie SkyFall (2012), might seem the result of the writers' fantasy, but does actually exist. The island is called Hashima, and is located off the coast of Japan. In 1959, the island was one of the most densely populated areas on earth.
I shall use my time." This was previously used in Ian Fleming's You Only Live Twice novel, appearing in Bond's obituary when the world thought he'd died.
As the surviving MI6 colleagues raise a toast to Bond, M says: “The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them.
She was referring to Bond. She felt that she “raised him right” and he didn't end up going rogue/psycho, the way Silva did.
