The future of Bond ... girls ...

[fembuck]

Next Bond girl will be played by Latina actress

We may not yet know the title of the next James Bond movie, and we may not know what the story is about, but we now at least have an idea of who the next Bond Babe will be... even if her character might not have a name yet.

According to casting notices sent out this morning, producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson are looking for a Latina actress in her late twenties, preferably with South American roots. Despite their plea that prospective talent not be worried about fitting the traditional Bond Girl look, since this is the "new" Bond series, she must be quite beautiful, able to handle what promises to be a physically demanding role, fluent in English and, last but most certainly not least, a great actress.

The next Bond film will begin filming in the United Kingdom and across Europe and South America under the direction of Marc Foster this coming January, with a six month production anticipated.

My votes:
1. Mia Maestro (Mmm, Mia. I miss Mia's stunning good looks making me drool and her mad actin skillz making me cry! Moar Mia!)
2. Jordana Brewster (um, this should speak for itself)
3. Eva Mendes (Beautiful and fierce, roar!)
4. Patricia Velasquez (Patricia is love)
5. Celina Font (saw her in a crappy movie, but she was luminous and a good actress)
6. Dania Ramirez (I pretty much think Dania should be in everything, lol. And with her last name and complexion you know it could happen!)
7. Alice Braga (I haven't actually seen anything with her, but I've heard she's good and she's related to Sonia Braga who I lurve)

... and I'm out of ideas (as much as I liked Dark Angel I refuse to consider Jessica Alba)

Suggestions?

Cote de Pablo is a possibility being from Chile. I've only seen a few episodes of NCIS but I like Ziva. I'm in love with the idea of Jordana Brewster as a Bond Girl (especially since the new franchise seems to be interested in giving the girls an actual character), and I'm actually ashamed I didn't put her on my list because I misread it as them having to be from South America instead of just having roots in South America. *is going to add to list*

Jordana's now my second favorite choice, number one is still Mia :D

YAY!
I help sorta! ^_^

and Ziva's a cutie ^_^
though, like Shego on Kim possible, I'd really hate to piss her off despite the hotness that she is when pissed off...
