The producers of the next Bond film are now looking for the next Bond girl to star in the 22nd film in the series. This time around, their search has also brought them to Israel.

 

The lucky girl will star alongside Daniel Craig, the current 007.

 

Unfortunately, the character of the new girl in the script will not be Israeli but Spanish, yet according to the producers a dark-skinned Israeli girl could also fit the role.

 

The hunt for the right girl is spanning the entire Mediterranean basin, and producers of the series are now asking Israeli casting agents
to send photographs and resumes of Israeli beauties with good acting skills. Another requirement is perfect command of the English language.

 

The veteran casting director Bruria Elback will be in charge of Israeli casting, which is set to commence shortly. "Auditions for the James Bond movie are being held in many countries and to my delight, we too are now part of it," Elbeck said.

 

According to Elback the "candidates for the part have to be of international standard, stunning and dark- skinned. They are definitely not looking for blonds here, but for a Latin look."

 

The film which still lacks a final name will primarily be shot on location in Italy, and will be directed by Mark Forrester. Paul Haggis who wrote the script for "Casino Royale", which enjoyed the highest box office sales, is also among the film makers.

 

The producers of the 22nd Bond film will soon be arriving in Israel. Since Ursula Andress emerged from the water in a white bikini and a hunting knife in "Dr. No" (1964), the first film in the series, the Bond girls have a place of honor in the Bond ritual. Another well-known Bond girl is Halle Berry.

 

Israeli actresses Ayelet Zorer, Sarai Givati and other Israeli stars should get prepared.
