Anyone can quickly recognize English actress Dame Judi Dench as M, the Head of Secret Intelligence Service in the James Bond franchise. She is a British actress renowned for her various magnificent stage roles and fantastic work in films and television. It was in this role that she gained international fame. Soon after, she won an Oscar Award when she played Queen Elizabeth in Shakespeare in Love back in1999. Her amazing acting skills come from her training at the Central School of Speech Training and Dramatic Art in London.

Dench’s dramatic and speech skills are enhanced as she went there to study and chase her dreams.

However, even before taking the role of M and Queen Elizabeth, Dench appeared in numerous films and plays and garnered several awards and nominations as well. Although she once said that “equal pay will never exist for actresses, ” we’re glad that she was able to increase her net worth and is far away from bankruptcy.
