Trivia[]

Whishaw has commented that he has found the depiction of Q's sexuality in No Time to Die to be unsatisfactory. "I think I thought, 'Are we doing this, and then doing nothing with it?' I remember, perhaps, feeling that was unsatisfying. For whatever reason, I didn't pick it apart with anybody on the film. Maybe on another kind of project I would have done? But it's a very big machine. I thought a lot about whether I should question it. Finally, I didn't. I accepted this was what was written. And I said the lines. And it is what it is."
Whislaw has stated that it is unlikely he will return as Q in the 26th Bond film, stating that it is likely it will have an entirely new cast. However, he further stated that if asked, he would return to the IP.^[1]
