The 37-year-old looks incredible in her latest photo shoot, which sees her posing in an array of sexy underwear for Esquire magazine.
Speaking about her role in the latest James Bond film where she plays Eve Moneypenny, Harris told the magazine: "I thought it was going to be this intimidating, massive machine."
She also touched on the rumours about Idris Elba being the next James Bond, and how she started them.

"A journalist once asked me, ‘Who do you think is going to be the next Bond?’" she explained. "I said, ‘I’ve just finished working with Idris so, if I had the chance, I would vote for him’.
"The next thing there were headlines going: 'Naomie Harris says Idris Elba to be the next Bond’. And Idris has had to live with that ever since. Now, nearly every time he does an interview, he gets asked about it."

Naomie has spent a lot of time with the 'Luther' actor recently as they both star in upcoming film 'Mandela: Long Road to Freedom.'
The actress takes on the role of Mandela's wife Winnie in the biographical film and admitted that she lived in fear of what the real-life Winnie would make of her portrayal.
Speaking of her reaction, Naomie said: "She loved it. I was over the moon - she was the one critic I was really scared of. But she’s seen it, she likes it, my job is done."

"You really feel the weight of responsibility," she added of being cast in the film. "I think it’s almost easier to understand Winnie than Nelson because he does something that is so against human instinct."
She and Idris walked the red carpet at the London premiere of the film last night, where the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were also in attendance.
'Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom' is out January 3.
The full interview with Naomie appears in Esquire’s January Film Special issue, which is on sale Thursday December 5. It is also available as a digital edition.
