Name is Freida, Freida Pinto
The 24-year-old ‘Slumdog millionaire’ Star Freida Pinto has signed a multi-million pound deal to play the love interest to suave spy James Bond in the 23rd James Bond movie. The film which is set in Afghanistan will be directed by Sam Mendes.
The project has been in the pipeline for months and Freida was always the dream Bond girl, but initially she was nervous about accepting it. This is going to be the most ambitious 007 yet.
The source added to the Daily Mirror newspaper: “It will be a typically glamorous and raunchy role and Dev has been joking to friends he is cool with seeing Freida rolling around with 007.”
Freida will star alongside Daniel Craig, who will be reprising his role as Bond once more.
Freida is also rumoured to have been roped in for a movie titled American Empire (directed by Andy Armstrong), a dark comedy about betrayal.
