Goldeneye (1995)
In this film, Bond was portrayed by Pierce Brosnan.
M was portrayed by Judi Dench.
After the long period between "License to Kill" and "Goldeneye", the producers
recruited Dame Judi Dench for the role of the new M. The character is based on
Stella Rimington, the real director of MI5 between 1992 and 1996. In
"Goldeneye", Dench's M is cold, blunt and initially dislikes Bond, whom she
calls "a sexist, misogynistic dinosaur, a relic of the Cold War". Tanner, her
chief of staff, refers to her during the film as the "evil queen of numbers",
given her reputation at that point as someone who relies on statistics and
analysis rather than drive and initiative.
Dench went on to play M in the 2006 film Casino Royale, which rebooted the
series with Daniel Craig as Bond. In this new continuity, M has already worked
for MI6 for a while, and at one point she mutters, "God, I miss the Cold War."
According to "Skyfall", M was previously responsible for the activities of MI6
in Hong Kong during the 90's. Her ability to run MI6 has been questioned several
times; In Casino Royale, she is criticized when Bond is filmed shooting an
unarmed prisoner and blowing up a foreign embassy; In "Quantum of Comfort", the
Secretary of State orders her to personally take Bond out of Bolivia and stop
any investigation into Dominic Green's eco-terrorist organization; And in
Skyfall, she comes under public scrutiny when MI6 loses a computer hard drive
containing the identities of undercover agents around the world. "Skyfall" marks
Dench's final appearance as M, with Raul Silva targeting her for alleged
infidelity. She is shot and killed in the film, making her the only M to be
killed in EON's Bond films. M (portrayed by Judi Dench) appears uncredited in
"Spectre", in a video testament.
There were also brief references to M's family: in "Goldeneye," she reacts to
Tanner's "mean queen of numbers" sting and tells him that when she wants to hear
sarcasm, she'll listen to her children. "Quantum of Comfort" director Mark
Forrester hinted that Dench's casting gave The character has maternal undertones
in her relationship with Bond, undertones made visible in "Skyfall," where Silva
repeatedly refers to her as "mother" and "Ima'la." In "Skyfall" it is also
revealed that she is a widow.
Unlike M portrayed by other actors, Dench's M was never called by name on
screen. However, a prop from the last scene of "Skyfall", in which M bequeaths
Bond some of her assets after her death, reveals that her character has been
named "Olivia Mansfield". Since the character has never been directly referred
to by this name, its canon remains unclear.
Q was portayed by Desmond Llewelyn.
Moneypenny was portayed by Samantha Bond.
