Ahead of No Time To Die, Fatherly caught up with cool-as-hell actor Jeffrey Wright, who returns in the latest Bond as CIA agent Felix Leiter. Wright rebooted the classic character back in 2006 in Casino Royale, and in our interview, he revealed his thoughtful insight on representation in action movies (including next year’s The Batman) plus, how he sublimates some of the tricky James Bond baggage into a useful “fantasy.”
“I understood when I was a kid that [James Bond] was a fantasy and that it wasn't biographical. It was grounded in the history of espionage it was grounded to an extent in a certain kind of geopolitical reality. I didn't feel myself imprisoned by that. I realized that it was a fantasy. So while I was captured by it, I don't think that I necessarily wanted to be that type of man.” Read our interview with Jeffrey Wright here.
