Judi Dench has revealed she is to reprise her role in the next ''James Bond'' movie.

The legendary star, who plays spymaster general M in the 007 series, says she can't wait to play alongside the new Bond, Daniel Craig, and for once will be jetted to exotic locations for the movie.

When asked if she will star in "Casino Royale" she revealed: "Yes of course. And I heard today that I'm not going to be in London. I'm going to get to go to Prague and The Bahamas. They're getting me out of my box. It's a whole film there."

She added to Britain's Empire magazine: "I'm very much looking forward to working with Daniel, but I've not even read a script yet. All I know is that we're due to start in February."
