Brosnan reveals some details about the DAD plot

26-Jul-2002 • Die Another Day

Pierce Brosnan has spoken to Yahoo Movies about the latest installment of the Bond franchise - "Die Another Day":

This time Bond is working outside his super-secret British spy agency, and he`s not sure if they are giving him the right information.

Then again, the villain, who, of course, wants to take over the world, tries to lure Bond to his side by masquerading as a good guy. "He`s betrayed by the bad guys and he`s betrayed by his own people," Brosnan said.

Poor Bond doesn`t know whom to trust.

So Bond turns to this version`s Bond girl, Jinx, played by Halle Berry. But even she turns out to be something she`s not.

"It lends itself to a far better movie that just having special effects, followed by more special effects, followed by a bedroom sequence," Brosnan said. "There was stuff to play, and that`s what you`re always looking for as an actor."

The original British Bond car, an Aston Martin, returns. But this version is a modern, $227,000 racer equipped with a 460-horsepower engine and "all the bells and whistles we came to know in `Goldfinger."`

Bond also has a supersonic ring that "enables him to get out of certain situations" and, as always, a sports watch that does more than simply tell time.
