Halle Berry and Pierce Brosnan had a bond like no other.
In fact, the Die Another Day actress recently gushed over working alongside the James Bond actor in their 2002 addition to the beloved franchise.
“He will always be my Bond, always,” Halle told Wired of Pierce, who played 007 for seven years, in an Aug. 15 interview. “I’m a Pierce Brosnan fan. He restored my faith in men on that movie. There couldn’t be a human who is more of a gentleman than Pierce Brosnan.”
And while she couldn’t sing her costar’s praises loud enough, Halle admitted that she never really wanted to be included in the spy franchise.
“Bond wasn’t on my wishlist,” she added. “But I loved the movies always. Having been in one, I feel like I’m a part of cinematic history. Those movies are iconic. They will forever be a part of our history. And I’m really honored to have been a part of one—especially with Pierce.”
