Of all the women to wear the label of Bond girl, it’s arguable that few have gone on to the same level of solo success as Jane Seymour after playing Solitaire opposite Roger Moore in his 007 debut, “Live and Let Die.” In retrospect, Seymour now concedes the role was sexist. “I was a woman, a virgin, who ran three paces behind a man with a gun, wearing very … well, actually for a Bond girl, a lot,” she told The Guardian in 2022.
For the remainder of the 1970s and ’80s, Seymour toiled away in a string of TV movies and guest spots on various shows. Everything changed in 1993, however, when she was cast in a frontier drama called “Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman,” which became a massive TV hit that ran for five successful seasons and spawned a few subsequent made-for-TV movies. That led to a career renaissance that continues to this day, with recent projects including hit Netflix comedy “The Kominsky Method,” the CBS sitcom “B Positive,” and her own British whodunit “Harry Wild,” which aired in 2022. She also wrote a self-help book, 2017’s “The Road Ahead: Inspirational Stories of Open Hearts and Minds.”
Despite her misgivings, Seymour isn’t averse to reprising Solitaire in a future Bond movie. “Of course, I’d do it,” Seymour told People. “I’ve always been very open about saying that I’d be happy to just walk behind the scene and someone could go, ‘Is that Solitaire?'”
