'And that beautiful girl with the long fair hair at the big table, that is Ursula Andress, the film star.' - OHMSS / 1963 The first icon of Bond, a two time Bond woman and a legend of pop culture - Happy 90th birthday Ursula Andress! Art by Dane Shue #UrsulaAndress #JamesBond

YOU ONLY LIVE SPICE?!

What if the next DUNE film IS the next Bond film too?!! #Dune #DunePartThree #JamesBond

@BondorNothing Very much so!! And maybe Binder's titles from BILLION DOLLAR BRAIN.

@Mark0Connell The Ipcress File and Funeral In Berlin, I assume?

Len Deighton didn't just detail the flipside of Bond. He was an equal literary king on the espionage chess board who yielded two of the best spy movies, compounded Caine's star power, and how British cool presents itself to this day. Rest in peace, Len Deighton. #RIPLenDeighton

@dunemovie And then a new Bond movie, yes?!

Experience the epic conclusion. Dune: Part Three only in theaters and IMAX December 18. #DuneMovie #FilmedforIMAX

And then a James Bond film, yes?! #Bond26 #DunePartThree #Dune

@oliviakrolczyk_ Imagine being someone who has confused followers for validity and who thinks crowdfunding a book everyone else has passed on with begging links is revolutionary....

“You wouldn’t want your own kid to be bullied” If my son puts on makeup I’ll be the first one to bully him. Boys don’t wear makeup. Boys don’t act like this. Stop gentle parenting.

What in the Dr. No title sequence is this?

Happy birthday to the longest-serving agent who gifted the Bond story a second golden age of cinema, missions, and artistry, and who left the baize more than ready for the 007th. Many happy returns, 006th! Original art by Robert McGinnis #DanielCraig #JamesBond #Bond26
