French actress lands Bond girl gig

Fans of the impending «Casino Royale» can stop speculating: Bond girl Vesper Lind will be played by French actress and Bertolucci find Eva Green.

After months of speculation, James Bond franchisers have finally found their Vesper Lind for «Casino Royale». 25-year-old French actress Eva Green, who debuted in Bernardo Bertolucci's mix of sexual discovery and politics, «The Dreamers», was last seen improving the landscape next to Orlando Bloom in Ridley Scott's somewhat humdrum «Kingdom of Heaven». If rumors over the last 6 months have been true, Green beat out a list of beauties that includes Angelina Jolie, Charlize Theron and Thandie Newton.
