Tomorrow Never Dies - Cast

Cast

  • Pierce Brosnan as James Bond, MI6 agent 007.
  • Jonathan Pryce as Elliot Carver, a media mogul modelled on Robert Maxwell, but analysed as a satire on Rupert Murdoch. He is completely insane and possibly even psychopathic, with scant regard for any of the lives destroyed or simply taken as a result of his media ambition.
  • Michelle Yeoh as Colonel Wai Lin, a skilled Chinese spy and Bond's ally.
  • Teri Hatcher as Paris Carver, a former girlfriend of Bond who is now Carver's trophy wife.
  • Götz Otto as Richard Stamper, Carver's henchman, who is skilled in the art of Chakra torture.
  • Ricky Jay as Henry Gupta, an American "Techno-terrorist" in the employ of Carver. Bruce Feirstein said he named this character after a Gupta Bakery, which he passed on the way to the studios.
  • Joe Don Baker as Jack Wade, CIA liaison, reprising his role from GoldenEye.
  • Vincent Schiavelli as Dr. Kaufman, a professional assassin used by Elliot Carver.
  • Judi Dench as M, reprising her role from GoldenEye.
  • Desmond Llewelyn in his penultimate appearance as Q.
  • Samantha Bond as Miss Moneypenny.
  • Geoffrey Palmer as Admiral Roebuck, M's contentious military contact.

Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    You have waited, you always wait, you dumb, beautiful ministers,
    We receive you with free sense at last, and are insatiate
    hence-forward,
    Not you any more shall be able to foil us, or withhold yourselves
    from us,
    We use you, and do not cast you aside—we plant you permanently within us,
    We fathom you not—we love you—there is perfection in you also,
    You furnish your parts, toward eternity,
    Great or small, you furnish your parts toward the soul.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    I would rather not see such winds subside, which carry your slow ship away, although they leave me, cast down, on an empty shore, often, with clenched hand, calling you cruel.
    Propertius Sextus (c. 50–16 B.C.)

    For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
    Bible: New Testament Jesus, in Mark 11:23.

    Matthew 21:21 also refers to this speech.
