In which 2000 movie did Bill Murray play the character John Bosley?

In the 2000 movie Charlie’s Angels, Bill Murray played John Bosley.

John Bosley is the Angels’ coordinator and Charlie Townsend’s assistant, a role that originated in the 1976–1981 television series. In the original show, actor David Doyle played Bosley. The 2000 film retained the character but gave him a more overtly comic personality, with Murray providing much of the movie’s humorous support.

Charlie’s Angels was directed by McG and starred Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, and Lucy Liu as Natalie Cook, Dylan Sanders, and Alex Munday. Released in the United States on November 3, 2000, it reimagined the television franchise as a fast-moving spy-action comedy while keeping Charlie’s unseen voice and the Townsend Agency at its center.

A common mix-up comes from the sequel, Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle, released in 2003. Bill Murray did not return for that film; Bernie Mac played Jimmy Bosley, John Bosley’s adoptive brother. The 2000 film is therefore the specific installment associated with Murray’s portrayal.
