Film information

Hawkins played by Grand L. Bush is the third ally of Licence To Kill. On route to Felix Leiter’s wedding, Hawkins and a colleague at the DEA stop Felix and Bond to inform them about the possibility of catching Sanchez.

While their initial response to catch Sanchez fails, Bond and Felix succeed after ‘going fishing’. Hawkins later informs Bond that he should forget about the Leiter investigation, and formally escorts him into the Hemmingway house to confront M.

Character information

Hawkins is a contact for Felix Leiter at the DEA. In the pre-title sequence Hawkins seems a friendly enough character, but he becomes more serious later in the film. Hawkins becomes worried that Bond is taking what happened to Felix Leiter too personally, and warns him about turning it into a personal vendetta. He tells Bond that he is in over his head and shows Bond into the Hemmingway house. §
