Giacinta "Jinx" Johnson is a fictional character in the James Bond franchise, first appearing in Die Another Day, portrayed by Halle Berry.
When Bond leaves to confront Graves, Jinx goes to warn MI6 operative Miranda Frost of an impending attack.
Subduing Jinx, Frost locks her in Bond's suite to die as Graves melts his Ice Palace using his Icarus satellite's heat-ray.
On the joint orders of Damian Falco and M, Jinx and Bond then infiltrate a North Korean airbase to assassinate Graves, who escapes.
The location was reportedly cold and windy, and footage has been released of Berry wrapped in thick towels between takes to avoid catching a chill.

The doll was sold in a gift set, with Barbie's boyfriend Ken posing as Bond in a tuxedo designed by the Italian fashion house Brioni.
Lindy Hemming, the costume designer for Die Another Day, had insisted that Berry wear a bikini and hold a knife as a homage.
