British actress Gemma Arterton doesn't agree with the idea of a gender-swapped James Bond, thinking moviegoers would find it "outrageous."

In a recent interview with UK outlet, The Times , Arterton pointed out that James Bond being portrayed as a woman is absurd on its face.

"Isn't a female James Bond like Mary Poppins being played by a man?" she wondered. "They talk about it, but I think people would find it too outrageous."

Arterton played British Secret Service agent Strawberry Fields in 2008 Bond film "Quantum of Solace," the second in the series to star Daniel Craig. She insisted that Hollywood should respect the legacy of the character and not opt for the change.
