Meet your new Bond girl, Berenice Marlohe

The Bond girls don’t always offer up much of substance in the 007 films but their casting and appearances through the franchise is nothing short of iconic. There have been plenty of rumors as to who would be the latest Bond girl in the upcoming Bond film but with this morning’s announcement of SKYFALL, we now know that French actress Bérénice Marlohe will be Bond’s latest lady friend.

But who exactly is Bérénice Marlohe?

Marlohe is a mostly unknown actress and model and I don’t just mean unknown here in the US. Her IMDB biography has two sentences and one is that she was just cast as the Bond girl in SKYFALL. The other notes that she made appearances on French TV shows “Père et maire,” “R.I.S. Police scientifique” and “Équipe médicale d’urgence”.

In the film, Marlohe will play a “glamourous, enigmatic character” named Severin. Glamorous and enigmatic? Sounds like pretty much every Bond girl…

She may not have a whole lot of acting experience to reflect back on so here’s a look at Marlohe’s other work: looking really hot.
