Kinda knew that she'd end up in a Bond film after Inglourious Basterds….

Her nipples are a welcome addition.

Hmm.

Hopefully she looks more like the photos from the article in the film!

So that's French actress number three for Craig, and joins Claudine Auger, Corrine Clery, Carole Bouquet, Sophie Marceau, Eva Green and Berenice Marlohe

Mmmmm

He'll make a great villain.

She has tits so you can start wanking again.

I approve. Lea has that sort of sulky beauty I can't help but admire although I thought being in MI4 would've excluded her from consideration for Bond 24. And Dog's MI clip's a bit odd - what's the slo-mo for? I would've gone with the scene where Lea slaughters Sawyer in the street. He deserved it for the last few seasons of Lost. (BTW, I see that the subbing in The Daily Fail continues its sad decline: Bazza's article refers to Mission Impossible: Ghost Patrol.)

Here's a tepid Elle photoshoot. For Lea's 'The Dreamers' moment, see 'Blue is the Warmest Colour'.

She has a certain level of aloofness that might be interesting, depending on the kind of character she plays.
I had all but forgotten she was in Ghost Protocol.
The third Frenchwoman opposite Craig. The Craig-era in general is pretty Euro-centric with its Bond girls.

Funny, because Lea's all that I remember. Her and Burj Khalifa, anyway.

I didn't think much of her in MI4. For a cold-blooded assassin, she wasn't very threatening. But then, maybe that was more down to the script.

Yeah, I don't think these films are about realism.

Seeing J7 is no longer with us, here's a link to some Lea shots. Brown, she ain't a boy...

well, gives me hope with Audrey Fleurot in the next Bond film.

Let's hope. Both a ginger and a blonde would be heaven.

It's not a question of realism. It's a question of having a world-class assasain look, act and behave like a world-class assassin. What she gave in MI4 was more of a bratty, pouty private school girl.

True, she should have been in red jumpsuit shooting at Hunt in public by chance, like a real assassin.

I like her, she'd make a good Bond girl.

Oh FFS get laid.

Who still killed people...which is what assassins do. They don't look and act the part 24 hours a day.

And if you still think otherwise, here's your world class assassin looking and behaving the part...

My point is that she's not a very convincing actor. She was probably let down by the script, since she only served to make the other girl look good.

Despite what j7 might think, Lea Seydoux > Paula Patton.

We haven't seen her role in Bond 24 to determine this yet.

Halle Berry went from Oscar winning thespian in Monster's Ball to Saturday Morning Cartoon in Die Another Day. And she was supposed to be a world class American assassin too.

Let's see what Sam Mendes gives Lea to work with. I doubt it's your average bubble-head Bond girl fare.

That thread makes me laugh.

She'll probably be playing a character like Xenia Onatopp. What do you folks think?

Nah, I don't see Mendes going the campy route with his Bond girls. Well not yet anyway.
