Megan fox is very very pretty

She's not ugly that's for sure but a bit too much like a pseudo Angelina.

Girls on top: The next generation of British actresses

Maybe our next Moneypenny might be in here? (apart from Jaime Winstone, she's a bit rough).

Great link! I think there are more possibilities to find our next Bond woman here than Moneypenny! My money on Talulah Riley! Great figure and seems to have personality!

Oh, and about that Megan Fox; I think she missed her last chance to become really famous! Not that I don't like this!

Cheers. Yes Ms Riley maybe a viable option there.

Bit of a issue: Murino's character died

I'm not suggesting an Solange retrun , but Murino with other character. I think Murino was a great Bond girl in " Casino Royale" , and is possible put a former Bond girl in a new character , like Maud Adams.

Why don't you bring Eva Green as Moneypenny while your at it?

Agreed. We don't need actors or actresses returning to the franchise as another character. It didn't work when they did in the first 20 films, and it most certainly work work now. There are plenty of other great actors and actresses out there that we don't have to take the current franchise from its current serious tone into the camp tone that such stunt casting would cause.

It did work in the first 20 movies, and that's because, you can watch any of the first 20 movies, in any order, and not miss anything. It was so easy to accept Maud Adams in a different role because.

1. There is a 10 year gap between both of the characters who she plays and...

2. Well, I can't think of another reason.

But the thing is, Casino Royale started a story arc, things are confusing enough without seeing familiar faces playing different roles.

There are only two reasons that I can think of for it working for Maud Adams:

• THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN is such a terrible movie that it's hard to remember who even starred in it, so it's easy to forget her involvement.
• The Andrea Anders character in TMWTGG is so forgettable, dull, an uninteresting that she's not memorable in any way, making Adams' return in OCTOPUSSY easier to accept.

Even with that said, though, I still don't think that it ever worked in the previous 20 films, Adams included. She was good in OCTOPUSSY, but based on the performance in TMWTGG, she shouldn't have been considered for a second role in the franchise.

While she's got plenty of projects on her plate - she stars alongside Josh Brolin in the upcoming "Jonah Hex," which also did press at the convention - she weighed in on rumors that she'd turned down a role in the next James Bond film.
"I would never pass on a franchise like that," she said, confirming the rumor was a false report. "Those are legendary, iconic movies. That's obviously something I would love to do."

I seriously doubt that she'll be asked for BOND 23. Once they return to the Brosnan Era style of Bond filmmaking, which is most likely a couple of films at the very most down the road, I wouldn't be surprised if they cast her in a film.

2. Her performance in Octopussy was substantially better and more memorable than in Golden Gun.

I just plugged Rhona Mitra in the General Discussion and Bond24 forums, so why not do it here as well?

I just saw Doomsday, a throw-together of Mad Max and 28 Days Later stuff, but Rhona was utterly convincing. The movie has a Bentley chase that looks Bondish.

The one on the right looks like a younger Vesper.

Would make for some interesting scenes, now wouldn't it?

I agree 100% with Rhona Mitra; would be a perfect Bond girl...
I'd also quite like to see Olivia Wilde or Zoe Saldana

[singleentendre]

Based more on acting ability than looks (although she's definitely pretty): Natalie Mendoza.

[DamnCoffee]

What would everyone say about RHONA MITRA? She was great in DOOMSDAY.

As pr my post about 5 above, I'm all for it!!!

[Automan]

Rhona Mitra was very sexy in Ali G in da house and Boston Legal

She was also A model for the Tomb Raider series

She would be fantastic for Bond

[Aris007]

Mitra's hot, period!

Oh, and by the way her last name means vagina in Greek! Interesting, huh?

[darthbond]

Really?

To put my two cents worth in, I loved how most of the Bond girls, if not all of them, were oddball choices. People nobody would have guessed right off the top of their head. Who could name a film that Eva Green or Olga did before they were cast in the Bond movies. How about Carole Bouquet? Maud Adams? Jill St. John? Tanya Roberts? Barbera Bach?

Excatly my point.

I don't think The Beastmaster, Kingdom of Heaven and Hitman are particularly obscure, but the others might be a bit of a head scratcher.

Andrea Riseborough as Miss M?

[Aris007]

Andrea Riseborough as Miss M?

Miss, what? If you mean M's lady, then no! If you mean the after-Dench-era M why not! It'd be interesting to see Bond's reaction! He'd ask for an office post immediately!

[volante]

So we don't forget

Rhona Mitra

[double o ego]

No doubt TR will get a bloody reboot. When that happens, wouldn't it make sense to just get Mitra? Anyway, Mitra as a Bond girl would be pretty interesting. I havn't seen Doomsday...yet but I liked her performance in underworld.

[PotterBond007]

My choice for the next Bond girl, I think should be the girl who played Ziva in NCIS. . . Cote de Pablo. She really played her well, and she could kick butt as a Mossad liason officer, so maybe they can give her an action role along with that of Bond's lover like they did with Halle Berry in DAD.

[Quantumofsolace007]

Another Cast idea out of the box and i will get yelled at by everyone Courtney Cox. She is attractive she is craig's age and she is an actual good actress true sho does more comedies then anything else but she did the Scream films and I figure I'll toss that name out.

why not At least this way I won't be known only as the guy who Likes Adrian Paul as a director, Amanda Bynes as a bond girl, The Hildebrand Rarity as a title, and Yes doing the theme.

[DamnCoffee]

She's too famous. Plus, she's a TV actress. She was alright in Scream but nothing outstanding. I'd rather have a Bond girl with real talent, something different to what we see everyday, when we turn on the TV.

While I agree with you on Courtney Cox (she's too famous and not good enough of an actress for the current films), I don't necessarily agree with you on completely avoiding TV actresses altogether. I think that there's quite a few very talented actresses on TV that would be fantastic in a Bond film. Yvonne Strahovski (CHUCK) still remains as my first choice for a future Bond woman, Olivia Wilde (HOUSE) ranks near the top of my list as well, and let's not forget Stana Katic from QUANTUM OF SOLACE, who is also currently being featured on TV in ABC's CASTLE.
