Molly starred in 1965’s Thunderball, opposite Sean Connery. According to The Daily Express, the actress was the first to take her clothes off on-screen in a James Bond movie. Because of this, the film almost received an “X” rating, and the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) reportedly ordered the scene to be taken out due to being “too racy.”
The cause of Molly’s death is not known at this time.
We send our condolences to her family.
