Biography
Dr. Holly Goodhead (Lois Chiles) is a scientist and astronaut working undercover for the CIA on Hugo Drax (Michael Lonsdale)'s Moonraker 5 space shuttle, to gather intelligence on Drax's plan to exterminate the human race. James Bond (Roger Moore) is also working undercover in Drax's organization, for the British Secret Intelligence Service, and he meets Goodhead when she introduces him to a centrifugal force chamber, where astronauts get to grips with G-forces, and invites him to have a try. In her absence, however, Drax's henchman, Chang (Toshiro Suga), tampers with the machine's controls to send it into overdrive; when Goodhead returns, Bond has nearly been killed, saved only by his wrist dart gun.
Bond travels to Venice to investigate Venni Glass, a company named in some of Drax's plans. Bond spots Goodhead there and follows her before re-introducing himself. Later that evening, Bond has to deal with Chang, then pays Goodhead a visit, and they spend the night together in her hotel room, where Bond is able to guess her identity when he sees standard CIA gadgetry there. Bond and Goodhead are at first reluctant to work together, but they are working well as a team by the end of the film.
M (Bernard Lee) tells Bond to take two weeks' leave, allowing him to continue his investigation unofficially. Bond travels to Rio de Janeiro, where he meets Goodhead once more. Jaws (Richard Kiel), who is now working for Drax, tries to kill them both on a cable car at Sugarloaf Mountain. They escape, but are then captured by Drax's men disguised as paramedics. Bond escapes from the ambulance speeding towards Drax's base, but leaves Goodhead behind.
Bond meets Goodhead again once Drax puts them under the engines of Moonraker 5, to be incinerated by the lift-off. They escape and follow Drax to his space station in Moonraker 6. Goodhead and Bond are captured, and Drax tells Bond about his plan about having perfect human beings on his earth (at the cost of wiping out the human race with a nerve gas dispersed from fifty glass globes), with no physical peculiarity or ugliness. This is overheard by Jaws who realises that because his girlfriend Dolly (Blanche Ravalec) has corrected vision she won't be on the ship returning to Earth. He turns on Drax and helps Bond and Goodhead to fight. Goodhead helps Bond defeat Drax, while Dolly and Jaws leave the self-destructing space station, escaping in a pod of their own. Bond and Goodhead go after the globes in the armed Moonraker 5, destroying them just before the last enters the atmosphere.
The film ends with the representatives of the US and Britain tuning in to see Holly Goodhead and Bond making love. The previous Bond film, The Spy Who Loved Me , ends in the same way, and Anya Amasova (Barbara Bach) was shocked by this development, but Goodhead is too happy to care. Her last words in the film were, "Oh James, take me around the world one more time." [1]
The character makes an appearance in the game 007 Legends . She is portrayed by British-Canadian actress and voice actor Jane Perry.
