Naomie Harris has thanked director Danny Boyle for giving her an opportunity at the initial stage of her career.

The 40-year-old star, who was appointed an OBE by the Queen at Buckingham Palace, says the director launched her acting career and gave her "a chance when nobody else would", reported Femalefirst.

"I credit so much to Danny Boyle. He really gave me a chance when nobody else would at the start of my career when I had no credits to my name.

"Then later on he gave me a part in 'Frankenstein' at the National after having left drama school 10 years before and not having done any theatre. He took a chance again and that's how 'Bond' happened," she said.
