Ukraine's Olga Kurlyenko picked as new "Bond girl"


In the secretive world of movie spy James Bond, the "Bond girl" for the new installment in the movie series had been top secret, but on Monday Bond's backers said Ukrainian bombshell Olga Kurylenko is the actress.

Columbia Pictures, the film studio behind the popular movies about the British secret agent, said the 28 year-old Kurylenko has been cast in one of the most coveted roles in the movies -- 007's sidekick for the still untitled Bond flick.

The film, which is the 22nd in the series that dates back to 1962's "Dr. No," is due in theaters in November and stars Daniel Craig as the dashing British spy who regularly saves the world from a destructive evil villain.

Early reports had actress Gemma Arterton as the new Bond girl, but even though Arterton has a role in the new film it is not as large as Kurylenko's, said a source close to the film.

The Ukrainian actress joins a long list of leading ladies to be cast alongside the super spy including Ursula Andress in "Dr No," Halle Berry, Kim Basinger and most recently Eva Green in "Casino Royale," which grossed nearly $600 million in worldwide ticket sales.

In the past, being a "Bond girl" has given actresses massive exposure and launched lucrative careers.

A former model, Kurylenko was most recently seen alongside Timothy Olyphant in last November's "Hitman."

British actor Craig made his first appearance as the secret agent in "Casino Royale" and returns for this newest movie directed by Marc Foster, better known for his widely acclaimed dramas like "Finding Neverland" and "The Kite Runner."

Also returning from "Royale" are Judi Dench as Bond's boss M, Jeffery Wright as CIA agent Felix Leiter and Mathieu Amarilic, currently playing French film "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly," as the new Bond villain.

    If it's as good as "From Russia With Love" I'll be very happy. :)

    There's something not pretty about that babe. It's right on the tip of my tongue.

    And she looks in the above picture like she's at least 16.

    I'm willing to bet it'll be better then Casino Royale. Of course, not the Bond girl, it'd be quite difficult, if not impossible to top Eva Green.

    I don't know man. There is something about Honor Blackman that will always hold a special place in my heart. She wasn't the prettiest Bond Girl, but damn that British accent! And she just screamed classy to me. Reminded me a bit of Grace Kelly.

    Casino Royale was the best Bond movie, by far. Most of 'em sucked. Looking forward to the next one. She'll do.

    If those pictures are of the same girl, either she removed the plastics in the front or she's lost some serious weight (compare Early's second pic to fourth and difference in cleavage is rather large). Very beautiful face, too skinny (top picture).
