French actress Eva Green has been cast as Vesper Lynd in the latest James Bond movie Casino Royale. James Bond producers Michael Wilson and Barbara Broccoli were pleased with the casting.

"After an extensive search we have found the perfect actress. Eva is one of France's most accomplished young actresses, now receiving international acclaim. She brings to the complex role of Vesper an exciting combination of enigmatic and seductive beauty."

Eva has some big shoes to fill as recent Bond girls have included Denise Richards and Halle Berry. Casino Royale is currently filming and will hit screens on November 17th.
