The new James Bond now has his Bond Girl.

Eva Green, whose screen credits include Bernardo Bertolucci's erotic drama "The Dreamers," will co-star as the enticing Vesper Lynd in "Casino Royale" opposite
Daniel Craig.

Craig is making his debut appearance as Bond in the film.

"Eva is one of France's most accomplished young actresses, now receiving international acclaim," producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli said Thursday in a statement. "She brings to the complex role of Vesper an exciting combination of enigmatic and seductive beauty."

Danish-born actor Mads Mikkelsen will play Le Chiffre, Bond's nemesis, and Jeffrey Wright ("Syriana," "Basquiat") has joined the cast as Felix Leiter.

Directed by Martin Campbell, "Casino Royale" is expected to be in theaters on Nov. 17.

Here's an image of Eva Green:

Now her, I could dig. I like the idea of a relative unknown playing a Bond girl instead of the up-and-coming Hollywood "it" girls that folks have been clamoring about.

Plus, bonus! She's not afraid to do nude scenes! YEEHAW!

You keep saying that. I do not think it means what you think it means.

She's more of the "classic" Bond girl. I didn't even see the last Bond film tho. :p

Say what you want, but nothing beats "Goldeneye" and Famke Janssen/Izabella Scorupco duo.

Wait...Casino Royale can't be the next "Bond" movie. It just sounds like a remake of the original Casino Royale, which was a bond spoof from the 60's or 70's or something. My little brother has that movie.

It wasn't a spoof as much as it was somebody else snatching the rights to it and going in a completely different direction with it. At least to my knowledge.

That film was a lampoon of the first Bond book, this will be the REAL adaptation.
