009 was the code-name of an unnamed fictional intelligence operative of the Double-O Section, an ultra-covert unit within the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS/MI6). The character was briefly mentioned (but not seen) in EON Productions' 2015 James Bond film, Spectre.
Biography[]
009 is first mentioned during Bond's introduction to the Aston Martin DB10 by Q. The vehicle was originally meant for Bond to use but it was reassigned for 009, much to Bond's disappointment. When 009 arrives the following morning to pick up the DB10, Q proceeds into the workshop only to find that Bond has stolen the car and departed for Rome. Later, when 007 is pursued by Spectre assassin Mr. Hinx, it is revealed that one of the car's cryptically-labelled switches ("atmosphere") enables 009's music playlist - namely, New York, New York by Frank Sinatra.
Trivia[]
- In the 17th October 2014 screenplay for Spectre the DB10's music playlist was configured for an "Eric Bryce", possibly intended at the time to be the spy's name.[1]
