Bond 22 Pre-Production Diary (14)
Bond 22 Pre-Production Diary (14)
15th October 2007
Casting Searchlight Lands On Brazil
The search for the next Bond girl is well under way, with casting notices sent out specifying "a Latina actress in her late twenties, preferably with South American roots".
MI6 has learned that several Brazilian actresses have met the initial requirements and are under early consideration to play opposite Daniel Craig in the 22nd James Bond film.
Headlining the small group of women hoping they will be eternally known as a "Bond Girl" is Brazilian actress Camila Alves. The 22 year-old model-turned-actress, who has worked in television and film, seems to meet all of the requirements. Her past experience includes a Hollywood production - Alves worked on the 2002 Cuba Gooding Jr. adventure comedy "Snow Dogs" - and her Hollywood contacts include current boyfriend and actor Matthew McConaughey. Up until recently, she lived in New York where she studied acting at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute, where the likes of Marlon Brando and Al Pacino cut their teeth.
Alves confirmed that she will be screentesting for the Bond girl role in Rio at some point during the last two weeks of October.

Another two actresses reportedly under consideration are Brazilian starlets Juliana Paes and Fernanda Lima, who were in contact with the production by Wednesday 10th October. The agent for 28 year-old Juliana Paes confirmed that she "was very happy about the opportunity" and has already performed an early test in Los Angeles and is due to be called back for another. A representative for Fernanda Lima confirmed the actress is also due to screentest for the Bond girl role. 30 year-old Lima's credentials include "Stuck On You" (2003) starring Matt Damon, and strong English skills.

Casting Alves, Paes or Lima would be the first time that a Brazilian actress has had a major role in a Bond film. Back in 1979, Adele Fátima as cast in "Moonraker" but her character was later recast to Emily Bolton. Adele did shoot some minor scenes around Sugar Loaf Mountain with Roger Moore, but they were cut from the final film
At the moment I find only Alvas and Lima attractive
Paes looks more like a Bondgirl which does not survive half of the film( like Solange)
My opinion

Soo true - he´s got no chance - we are the 30´s with the brain and knowledge of 50 - who can beat that?I'll calm down a bit no chance of that 50 is the new 30........
The top notch acting in the Weisz/Craig/Spall 'Betrayal' is emotionally true, often v funny and its beautifully staged with filmic qualities..

50 is the new 30? I don't remember my 30's at all.....more like late 20's?
I'm having the most fun now than I have in a long time....Here here for Daniel's influence, naughty or not.
Joelle - do remind us of the day of your big birthday....it is a true milestone and with the various posts, I don't want to miss wishing you a great 50th!
