Bond 22: Here Comes Gemma Arterton
The 22nd installment of the James Bond series started filming this week. If you think like we think the first question that entered your mind was who's the new Bond girl? For Bond 22 the producers went with newcomer Gemma Arterton. The gorgeous 22 year old hails from England, and most recently starred in the British film St. Trinians. She has been called the next Keira Knightley with similar looks and charisma.Bond 22 picks up where Casino Royale left off, so it will be interesting to see how the main character recovers from the loss of his true love. We have no doubt Gemma Arterton's character, who will be named "Fields," will try to win Bond's affection. Rumors of Gemma's participation have been swirling on the blogs for months, but the producers only confirmed her role last week.
Swiss born director Marc Forster plans to offer a more cerebral Bond, a bit of a change from Casino Royale director Martin Campbell's take on the smoothest man in the history of the world. Thankfully Daniel Craig, the sixth man to play James Bond, returns in the lead role. Mathieu Amalric and Joaquin Cosio will play the bad guys this time around. Look for Bond 22 to hit theaters later this year, and be sure to keep your eyes out for Gemma Arterton.
