Los Angeles, April 2 (NationPress) Hollywood actress Rosamund Pike has opened up about her concerns during the production of the 2002 James Bond film ‘Die Another Day’.
The actress was apprehensive that her nipple tape might hurt Pierce Brosnan while they were shooting a romantic scene, according to reports from ‘Female First UK’.
The 46-year-old actress, who portrayed the double agent Miranda Frost in her debut appearance in the 007 franchise, shared this anecdote while guesting on David Tennant’s podcast ‘David Tennant Does a Podcast With’.
As reported by ‘Female First UK’, during an intimate scene filmed on a swan sculpture bed, she became worried that she was inadvertently waxing his chest while being “covered in furs” with the 70-year-old star.
She recalled, “We have this clinch, and then we separate, and I look at this body tape and the nipple covers and they’re covered in hair. And I think, ‘Oh my God, I’m waxing Pierce’s chest’. I was so mortified. I thought, ‘Oh my God, he’s so brave, and I’m pulling off his chest hair with every embrace’. Of course, it took a couple of takes to realize it was not him. It was the fake fur of the rugs adorning the swan bed. I literally thought I was waxing the poor man’s chest.”
Rosamund, who was just 23 during filming while Brosnan was 49, described the Irish actor as “an absolute gent” on the podcast. She also reminisced about her audition for the role, revealing she had never seen a Bond film prior to trying out for the part.
She mentioned, “I took my mother’s concert dress to the audition.” She believed it would be a fitting and elegant choice for a Bond girl. However, upon her arrival, she recalled being told, “That is a very, very lovely dress but Bond girls wear things more like this,” before being handed “a shimmering sheath” to wear.
