*Japanese Secret Service agents Aki (Akiko Wakabayashi) and Kissy (Mie Hama) are two of the loveliest Bond ladies ever to snag the amorous 007. But early in casting, their roles were reversed.

But when they learned that doing so would dishonor Hama’s family, they kept her in the film. *Source: Back of card
