Ted Lasso star Hannah Waddingham has no plans on playing Bond, Jane Bond.

"God no! A woman doesn't need to play James Bond. We've got other things to do", she said.

"I'm such a feminist, but you can't have a woman. It just doesn't work. James Bond has to be James Bond, otherwise it becomes something else".
