Freida Pinto:Bond 23
Yet its a rumor, not confirmed from any of the parties, but Pinto was actually came into consideration by Bond Casting team during “Quantum of Solace” as they need an international new but smashing girl, but she was too young then, now Britain’s The Sun is reporting that Pinto has been invited to a screen test for the next James Bond movie, tentatively titled “Bond 23.”
Apparently, in just two years, the star has grown up enough and just happened to star in one of the biggest films of the year. Oh, it won Best Picture, too. It comes as no surprise that Bond producers want Pinto in their next spy thriller. Ok, I’m biting.
However, the article continues to run with an already debunked rumor of Danny Boyle helming the next spy thriller. The source continues, “Danny Boyle is favourite to take the helm of the next movie, which would increase Freida’s chances of a starring role.”
You don’t have to tell this Bond fan how cool it would be to have Freida Pinto firing at jumpsuit-wearing cronies in a volcanic, underground lair. And if she’s been of interest to producers for the past two years, then I would say she’s the high contender. But at this point, when it’s as likely as Boyle being the next director, we might want to chalk this up as crazy rumor.
Natalie Portman will be playing the role of Jane Foster, the love interest of the title character in Kenneth Branagh’s Thor. Her casting has officially been confirmed by Marvel yesterday (July 13). The film will co-star Chris Hemsworth as Thor and Tom Hiddleston as the villain Loki. The synopsis of the film from FirstShowing.net:
This epic adventure spans the Marvel Universe; from present day Earth to the realm of Asgard. At the center of the story is The Mighty Thor, a powerful but arrogant warrior whose reckless actions reignite an ancient war. Thor is cast down to Earth and forced to live among humans as punishment. Once here, Thor learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth.
