This was just too good to pass up, and a nice way to lighten the mood on a Friday.

New Zealand filmmaker Lee Tamahori, who directed the James Bond movie “Die Another Day,” has been arrested in a Hollywood prostitution sting while dressed in drag.

Tamahori, 55, was arrested on January 8 when he allegedly sought sex with an undercover policeman while clad in women’s clothes, according to a criminal complaint filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court.

No word on whether or not a series of remakes are in the works:

On His Majesty’s Secret Service

The Man with the Golden Ear Ring

Octo . . . no, not going to go there.
