Some girls have all the luck. At a London press conference for the new Bond movie Skyfall, which has just started filming, Naomie Harris and Bérénice Marlohe were announced as the new Bond girls. Marlohe is a French model and actress who is relatively well known in her home country, but this movie will probably help her achieve international success. Not much is known about her character, Sabrine, yet, but considering this is a Bond movie we're talking about she'll probably get some steamy scenes with Daniel Craig. The film will be directed by Sam Mendes, ex-husband of Kate Winslet, who won an Oscar for directing American Beauty.
