10 Actresses Who Should Play Bond 24's Female Lead

10. Penelope Cruz

MediaproMediaproName: Penelope Cruz Age: 40 Birthplace: Madrid, Spain Known for: Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011), Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008) and Volver (2006) It€™s no secret that Sony Pictures has been chasing Academy Award winner Penelope Cruz to co-star alongside Daniel Craig in a James Bond film, but conflicting schedules and multiple pregnancies have prevented it from happening for years. Bummer. If the script calls for a Scandinavian secondary female lead, we€™d imagine Cruz wouldn€™t be the ideal casting choice. However, the jury€™s still out on who will play the lead Bond girl role in Bond 24. It is believed that production is looking for British actress for the role, but we€™re still keeping our fingers crossed for Cruz being cast. Fun fact: if Cruz were to take on a coveted Bond girl role, she would be the oldest actress to do so in the franchise€™s illustrious history.
