There hasn’t been an official announcement yet, but it’s being reported Lea Seydoux (BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: GHOST PROTOCOL) has joined BOND 24. In August it was rumored director Sam Mendes was interested in the French actress for his film, and according to the Daily Mail, she’ll be playing the femme fatale in the next 007 movie.
The site also says Seydoux will go through a series of costume, make-up and camera tests to help the filmmakers figure out her “look” for the movie, and she will meet with her co-stars Daniel Craig, Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw and Naomie Harris later next month for a script rehearsal.
Lea Seydoux certainly has the looks to play a femme fatale, but she’s also a very solid actress, and should do a great job in the Bond movie. With production scheduled to start in December, I’m sure there’s going to be plenty of BOND 24 details revealed in the next couple of months.
BOND 24 will be in theaters on November 6, 2015.
