Agnes O'Casey Eyes Female Bond Role, Loves Double Lives

Agnes O'Casey, currently starring in multiple espionage-themed productions, has revealed her ambition to embody a female James Bond. She envisions a modern take on the iconic role, complete with "Bond guys" and high-speed car chases.

This year, O'Casey is deeply involved in spy narratives, including roles in "The Spy Who Came in from the Cold," "Black Doves," and "Star City." Her latest project, "Star City," a "For All Mankind" spinoff, premieres at Canneseries, where she plays Irina Morozova, a nuanced character described as a "fish out of water."

O'Casey's fascination with undercover personas stems from an inherent appeal of double lives. She notes that the concept of maintaining a hidden self beneath a conventional exterior resonates with her personal experiences and the universal human condition.
