007 First Light Male Characters Fate
Below is the detailed explanation of all major 007 First Light male characters’ fate. I’m exploring exactly how their story arcs wrap up. With that out of the way, let’s begin.
James Bond
James Bond finally clears his name from the false charge of high treason and earns the legendary 007 title he has worked so hard for. He survives a fierce final battle with Damien and then gets a fresh assignment from M: track down the shadowy organization that stole the powerful quantum computer known as THEIA.
Q
Q’s ultimate fate isn’t deeply explored, but he does show up exactly when needed. He arrives in the nick of time to give medical aid to Moneypenny after she gets stabbed and frees Bond up to go after Damien.
John Greenway
Sadly, the veteran spy doesn’t make it. In a heroic last-second move, Greenway steps in to save Bond from Damien and gets badly injured. He dies from his wounds and Bond is later seen paying his respects at his gravesite.
Nicolas Webb
Sir Nicolas Webb meets a brutal end at his own Antarctica research facility. He’s betrayed and fatally shot in his abdominal aorta by Isola.
Damien Webb
Damien’s chaotic run comes to an end at the hands of James Bond. He breaks into MI6 and stabs Moneypenny, while he’s trying to steal THEIA. However, our hero, Bond chases him down and ultimately kills him in a final fight.
Lennox Monroe
Monroe tragically loses his life early in Bond’s career. While they’re attempting to stop a mysterious blonde man in Slovakia during the All the Time in the World chapter, he gets killed by him.
Murto Twins (Niko and Tera)
Both of these crazy Finnish mercenaries are taken care of by Bond. He takes out the first twin at the Webb Industries gala by impaling him with a trident and he later defeats the other one at the luxury resort party in Vietnam.
Bawma
The Pirate King survives the events of the story. He intervenes during a deadly ambush in Africa and saves the lives of Bond and Greenway. He lets them go primarily because MI6 has information regarding his missing little sister.
007 First Light Female Characters Fate
Now let’s look at the ultimate fates of all major 007 First Light female characters. I’m breaking down exactly how each of their personal storylines comes to a close. Let’s get right into it.
M
In the end, M comes out on top. She strikes a clever deal with Secretary Bright to drop all the charges against Bond. She also doubles her department’s budget and sends 007 off on his next covert mission to track down the mysterious organization that stole the quantum computer THEIA.
Moneypenny
Moneypenny has a rough ending but likely makes it out alive. She’s taken hostage and viciously stabbed by Damien when he breaks into MI6 to steal THEIA. Thankfully, Q shows up to help her, and it’s heavily implied she survives the attack.
Isola Vale (AKA Miss Roth)
Isola’s fate is left wide open as a lingering mystery. After fatally wounding Nicolas Webb, she later breaks into MI6 to offer Bond an escape, which he turns down. By the end, she pulls Bond from the water and vanishes with THEIA. If you want to learn more about the talent behind the rogue agent, here’s everything you need to know about Isola’s actress.
Cressida Bright
Cressida survives the disastrous Slovakia mission, but not without paying a heavy price. She’s caught in the same bomb explosion that kills Marcus Singh and Kristina Kingsley, which leaves her disabled. If you want to know more about her, be sure to check out our breakdown of Cressida’s actress.
Theresa Lorca
Theresa, the lovely marine biologist, manages to survive the chaos at the resort in Vietnam. She’s targeted for elimination by Webb’s forces, but Bond successfully steps in and saves her life before he takes on the last Murto twin. If you thought she looked familiar during the resort scenes, take a look at who served as Theresa Lorca’s face model.
