FILM: New Bond Girl

I hate it when the Bond girl is someone obscure and slightly insignificant. Granted, Casino Royale introduced America to the beautiful and talented Eva Green, who went on to appear in The Golden Compass and will be starring alongside Ryan Philippe in the romance thriller Franklyn next year. But it's hard to get excited about the film if the girl seems like a dud at first. Perhaps I should cut Gemma Arterton some slack. After all, she is fairly attractive...and Guy Ritchie did cast her in his next action film, RocknRolla (out next Fall), alongside Gerard Butler and Jeremy Piven...and she will be starring in a Jane Austen-themed UK series called "Lost in Austen." Maybe I should watch the trailer first before I completely write her off. The film will be titled simply 007 and filming won't start until next year.
