Octopussy not happy with Heineken.

Bond Girl Maud Adams Unhappy With 007'S Beer

Former Bond Girl Maud Adams is not impressed that James Bond will drink a Heineken beer instead of his usual Vodka Martini cocktail in 'Skyfall'.



Maud Adams is unhappy James Bond is going to be seen drinking a beer in new movie 'Skyfall'.

The 67-year-old Swedish actress starred opposite Roger Moore in two Bond films, 'The Man with the Golden Gun' and 'Octopussy', and she is unimpressed that current 007 Daniel Craig will be seen supping a Heineken instead of his trademark Vodka Martin cocktail after Heineken USA agreed a deal to be featured in the movie.

Maud thinks the change of drink will make the suave British spy appear less elegant.

She told Swedish entertainment magazine EXTRA: ''Even though it's a good beer, this has gone too far.

''Martini was something elegant when I served Roger Moore and it is elegant to this day.''

in 'Octopussy' Maud played the jewel smuggling title character and was seen on screen serving Roger one of the iconic drinks.

As part of Heineken's deal Daniel will also appear in character for a TV commercial for the drinks brand which will air all over the world and will be created by Wieden & Kennedy Amsterdam with 'Skyfall' director Sam Mendes acting as a consultant.

The 44-year-old actor will also appear as the spy on special packs of the beer.

Despite attracting criticism from fans of the spy series, Daniel has defended the inclusion of a beer instead of Bond's usual tipple - prepared ''shaken not stirred'' - because the money the deal generates helps meet the cost of making and promoting the film.

He said: ''This movie costs a lot of money to make, it costs as nearly as much again if not more to promote, so we go where we can.

''There's a big furore about [the beer], but it's not what the movie's about, I promise you. We haven't sold out completely.''

'Skyfall' is set for release in October.

why so another site can post a list of everyone who says they love Craig including the previous Bonds? Nobody that wants to stay working in Hollywood is going to say how much they hate Harrison Ford's new wookie bitch.

I think the Heineken placement is the sign that Bab's running of the series has FAILED. Once the Bonds where so successful
that they could call the shots on what products where in them. Now under The green Veg, Bond will have to sell any old crap.
I'm amused by the Craig fans who are Happy with the deal, ( as I think they're more Craig than Bond fans ). I wonder if
they'll be as happy when in the future we see Bond swapping a casino for a Bingo hall and taking a lady not to a high class
restauraunt but ends up in a local McDonalds commenting on "How delicious the Big Mac is "
After skyfall I expect to see Ad space sold on Bonds Tux and a tag line " Sponsored by ............................ " :(

What happened to that Tyrell's Crisps deal, is that still going ahead? That was freaking hilarious. I think the reason they're holding off on the Adele decision is that they don't know whether they are going to have to use this as the theme tune:
