Michelle Yeoh as Wai Lin in Tomorrow Never Dies and Daniel Craig as James Bond in front of Bond girls
Summary Michelle Yeoh very nearly returned to the James Bond franchise, and her comeback would have achieved a feat only two actors have managed across all James Bond movies. Michelle Yeoh joined the James Bond franchise as Wai Lin in 1997's Tomorrow Never Dies, and entering the pantheon of so-called "Bond girls" immediately propelled her to the international stage.
1 Only 2 "Bond Girls" Have Returned For Multiple Movies In 60 Years Michelle Yeoh Would Have Made It Three Close As a consequence of 007's promiscuity, the various women he encounters typically don't get a second mission. Standard procedure is that James Bond ends his movies in a female character's arms, then said female character goes completely unmentioned in the following release, allowing the British super-spy to embark upon his next romantic liaison.
If Michelle Yeoh had agreed to Wai Lin's guest spot in Die Another Day, she would have become the first Bond girl to feature in multiple movies since Eunice Gayson. In the modern era, Yeoh would be the third overall alongside Gayson and Seydoux - an astoundingly small club, considering the longevity of the James Bond franchise and the number of other recurring allies in 007's contacts list.
