Halle Berry claims studio balked at 'ahead of its time' James Bond spin-off based on Jinx character

Halle Berry has claimed that studios were too scared to support a James Bond spin-off based on her character Jinx.

The Oscar-winning actress played NSA agent Jinx Johnson in the 2002 007 film Die Another Day, which starred Pierce Brosnan, 67. as the British spy.

Producer Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson lobbied for the character to get her own movie, although MGM were put off by an $80 million price tag, a decision Halle branded as 'disappointing' in a cover interview with Variety.
