Academy Award-nominated actress Rosamund Pike recently opened up about an unsettling moment from her early career — during her audition for Die Another Day (2002), where she portrayed the character Miranda Frost alongside Pierce Brosnan’s James Bond.
In a candid interview, Pike revealed that she was asked to “drop her dress and stand in her underwear” during the casting process — a demand she bravely refused. “I didn’t do it,” she said. “I was 21 and knew that was not right.” The incident, she explained, took place in the office of a casting director who seemed more concerned with how she'd look in lingerie than with her acting.

Despite the uncomfortable situation, Pike ultimately landed the role without complying with the inappropriate request, and Die Another Day became her breakout film.
This revelation has reignited conversations around inappropriate casting practices and the pressure young actresses face in the industry. Her story resonates especially in the post-#MeToo era, where more actors are speaking out against unacceptable behavior in Hollywood.
Fans and industry colleagues have praised Pike for her integrity and courage, with many emphasizing the importance of setting boundaries — even early in a career.
