CASINO ROYALE - GREEN TO SURVIVE HER BRUSH WITH BOND?

GREEN TO SURVIVE HER BRUSH WITH BOND?

CASINO ROYALE star EVA GREEN is set to become the first BOND girl since the 1960s to appear in more than one 007 film. The 26-year-old beauty, who stars as VESPER LYND in the forthcoming film, is rumoured to have signed to reprise her role in the next installment, tentatively titled BOND 22. BARBARA BROCCOLI, a co-producer of every Bond film since 1995's GOLDENEYE, hints, "We're already thinking about (the sequel). It is an original story, but it's going to continue part of what the story is in this film." A spokeswoman for Eon Productions, which owns the Bond film franchise, adds, "You could speculate that (Eva Green) would need to have a part in it because there are things that need to be explained, but we haven't made any casting decisions." The only Bond Girl to appear in more than one 007 film is SYLVIA TRENCH, played by British actress EUNICE GAYSON, who meets James Bond in 1962's DR NO and is shown having a picnic with the spy in the following year's FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE.
