Who is Miss Moneypenny in the James Bond movie series?
Miss Moneypenny, Portrayed by Eon-produced films: Lois Maxwell (1962–1985), Caroline Bliss (1987–1989), Samantha Bond (1995–2002), Naomie Harris (2012–present), Non Eon-produced films: Barbara Bouchet (1967), Pamela Salem (1983) is the fictional secretary to M, the head of the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS/MI6).
Although she has a small part in the James Bond films, her character is always highlighted by the underscored romantic tension between her and James (something that is virtually nonexistent in Ian Fleming's novels, though somewhat more apparent in the Bond novels of John Gardner and Raymond Benson). On that note, she is not always considered to be a James Bond girl, having never had anything more than a professional relationship with Bond, to her dismay. According to the movie "You Only Live Twice", she holds the rank of Second Officer in the Women's Royal Naval Service. To date, she has been portrayed by Lois Maxwell, Caroline Bliss, Samantha Bond, and Naomie Harris, photo/image as shown, in the EON Productions series of films, with two unofficial portrayals.
