AceShowbiz - Rami Malek has unofficially stepped into the role of a Bond girl after kissing Daniel Craig while filming their new James Bond movie.
The actors co-star in "No Time to Die", in which Craig portrays 007 and Malek the villain, and while workshopping a particularly difficult scene, the colleagues found themselves locking lips.
"We had a scene that was a very complicated scene and (Daniel and I) were rehearsing for it with our terrific director, Cary Joji Fukunaga,” Rami recalled of the moment on Wednesday, October 2 during an appearance "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert".
"We're sitting at a table over hours just batting about ideas back and forth. And we finally cracked this really challenging scene."
The breakthrough moment quickly turned into a kiss, with Rami explaining: "He (Daniel) grabbed me, picked me up... I can’t tell if I initiated the next moment, if it was him or I but a kiss transpired between the two of us. I’m going to say that Daniel initiated it and I was very taken aback... I took a moment, caught my breath, and I looked out and said, 'So, does this make me a Bond Girl?'"
"No Time to Die", which also stars Naomie Harris, Ralph Fiennes, Christoph Waltz and Lea Seydoux, reaches U.S. theatres in April 2020.
