Clarke wants to be first female Bond

The 29-year-old actor has revealed that one of her biggest professional ambitions is to break new ground by becoming the first woman to star as the iconic secret agent, reports dailystar.co.uk.

“I have a lot of unrealised dreams. I would love to play Jane Bond. My ultimate leading man would be Leonardo DiCaprio. No doubt about it,” Clarke said. 

Gillian Anderson hit the headlines last week by suggesting she could replace Craig as 007 and be called Jane Bond.

Clarke is currently promoting her first major leading role in director Thea Sharrock’s Me Before You, which is an adaption of a romantic novel of the same name written by Jojo Moyes. Season six of ‘Game of Thrones’ is premiered in India on Star World Premiere HD.
