The next James Bond movie doesn't even have a title yet, but that doesn't mean that the casting can't take place. Several important roles have already been announced as filled by different actors, but as every time a new Bond movie comes out, the public is dying to know who will play the love interest, the so-called “Bond Girl.”

A report from Entertainmentwise claims that the role has already been cast in secret and it has gone to a lovely French actress by the name of Lea Seydoux. The actress is known for her recent role in the movie “Blue Is the Warmest Color,” which won the Palme D'Or at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival.

She also made appearances in mainstream movies such as “Inglorious Basterds” and “Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol.” Her looks have not only been praised by filmmakers but also by the fashion industry as the actress had previously modeled for Vogue.

Lea will join the cast in the generically titled “James Bond 24” along Daniel Craig, Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw, and Naomie Harris. Fans are eager to get more details on the unusually secretive production, but so far very little has transpired about the movie. All we know at the moment is that the script has been completed and shooting is scheduled to start in early December.
