New York Post gossip columnist Cindy Adams talked to Dame Judi Dench, who has played M in the four Pierce Brosnan James Bond movies, and will do so again in Casino Royale.

Although Brosnan believed he wouldn't be back, Dench says the actor will return a fifth time. "Despite the fact that everyone on the face of the Earth has been tested as his possible replacement, he'll be doing it again, and it'll be announced come summer," said Dench.

Martin Campbell, who directed Brosnan and Dench in their first 007 movie together, Goldeneye, is returning for the latest installment. The 21st Bond film hits theaters November 17, 2006.

w00t! Can't let Brosnan leave the Bond franchise on that last piece of crap (Die Another Day).

WOO! You go Judi!...she IS M.

Uhhhh....but how's she gonna be M in Casino Royale? Isn't it a flashback to his first mission or something? Judi's supposed to be the new M, not the original....

Hmmmm I like Brosnan, but I've begun forcing my girlfriend to watch the Bond movies in chronological order (so far only Dr No and From Russia With Love) and I must say I think it's time for some new blood. Oh and damn it if Sean wasn't perfect for the part.

Brosnan is the best Bond since Connery and if they can't get Clive Owen to replace him right now they should keep Brosnan as Bond until they can.

The last thing they want is another Timothy Dalton situation where they get a crappy "filler" Bond until they can get the Bond they really want. Dalton looked too much like a Bond villain, and MGM wanted Brosnan for The Living Daylights but he was locked into his Remington Steele contract, so MGM was forced to cast a evil-looking Bond for two movies until they could get Brosnan.
