Today, actress Judi Dench has achieved the status of an iconic star. She delivered commendable performances in the James Bond series from 1995 to 2012 and has also received wide appreciation for her roles in Shakespeare plays such as Macbeth, Hamlet, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and others. She is now celebrated for both her movie acting and her theater performances. However, earlier in her career, when she was trying to break into Hollywood, people doubted her abilities, thinking her acting was limited only to theater.
