Naomie Harris is three weeks shy of closing out what may go down as one of the most magnificent years of her life, and what better way to do so than with a sultry little Esquire Magazine shoot?
The men’s mag tapped the red carpet professional to strip down for a spread, featuring the beauty in black lingerie on her petite frame. In the interview, the Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom star spoke about her co-star, Idris Elba, and the best part of it all is that she looks this smoking hot at age 37.
Check out some excerpts from the interview below.
On how she started the rumors of Idris Elba being the next Bond:
“A journalist once asked me, ‘Who do you think is going to be the next Bond?’” she explained. “I said, ‘I’ve just finished working with Idris so, if I had the chance, I would vote for him. The next thing there were headlines going: ‘Naomie Harris says Idris Elba to be the next Bond’. And Idris has had to live with that ever since. Now, nearly every time he does an interview, he gets asked about it.”
On Winnie Mandela’s reaction to her portrayal of her in Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom:
“She loved it. I was over the moon – she was the one critic I was really scared of. But she’s seen it, she likes it, my job is done. You really feel the weight of responsibility. I think it’s almost easier to understand Winnie than Nelson because he does something that is so against human instinct.”
The full issue, which features George Clooney on the cover, will hit the stands on January 3rd.
