Lorna Morgan or Chloe Vevrier would be good.

Freida 'might pull off' Bond girl's role: Gemma Arterton

Gemma Arterton is convinced that Freida Pinto would do a great job if she actually becomes a Bond girl.

But she is unfazed by speculation of Indian actress Freida Pinto starring in the next Bond flick. On the contrary, Arterton is convinced that Pinto would do a great job if she actually became a Bond girl.

“As of now, I heard that all such news of her being approached for the next Bond girl is a grapevine rumour. But if it comes true, I can say that I have seen her work, and, yeah, she might pull it off well as I too started so fresh in the shoes of a Bond girl but the camera and, of course, the director taught me a lot,” said Arterton.

Speaking about Indian movies, Arterton felt they are completely ‘different’ from the ones made in the West. “I know the [Indian film] industry is a huge one. In fact, I am told that it is the second largest in the world. Some friends of mine in England had Indian connections and they talked about Indian films. That’s all I knew about the films in India, till I saw Bride & Prejudice and Slumdog Millionaire. I found them very different as they had songs, dancing and some fabulous attire.”

Arterton said she was open to acting in a Hindi film. “I want to do films, be they from any industry or language," she said. "I don’t mind exploring my skills and enhancing my acting anywhere in the world.”

Asked about the most outrageous thing she had done, she said, “In my upcoming movie directed by Louis Leterrier, it was crazy being dressed in skimpy outfits while shooting in the mountains of Spain because in the mornings the temperature used to be -2ºC. Then, as the day went on, it would get up to 27º. So it started off freezing cold and then got scorching.”

Has anyone out there read today's Daily Telegraph? Not exactly a tabloid newspaper over here in the UK. Apparently the film makers are looking to India for their next leading lady, with two in particular in the frame.

Of course, the item also peddles the same old stuff we've read before about Afghanistan being the next location, so perhaps it should be treated with caution!

Sure that would work, but really the suspence is killing. Will Daniel take his shirt off again.

It's always these two names that come up time and time again. Another case of a tourist board lobbying Bond maybe...

If Rai still looks like this........



...then yes, I would be all for her (or even Pinto). But I've seen what I believe to be more recent pix of Rai and she seems to have gained a pound or two, and would need to lose about 5 lbs in order to secure the role.

The fatter the better.

Keep em large.

as for Clémence Poésy, I hope not another young actress for a quick leg-over scene although being 28 is more acceptable. Never seen her act though.

Just read she played 'Fleur Delacour' in Harry Potter.

I see a wonderfull Moneypenny here gentlemen!
