Sorry Naomie, you've got competition! Skyfall add a new Bond girl in the guise of striking Greek beauty Tonia Sotiropoulou
By Nadia Mendoza
PUBLISHED: 07:58 EST, 5 April 2012 | UPDATED: 09:31 EST, 5 April 2012It's the role every female actress wants, and Naomie Harris nailed it.
But it seems the Pirates Of The Caribbean actress will have some competition on her hands, as Skyfall introduces a new Bond girl.
Director Sam Mendes has cast Greek beauty Tonia Sotiropoulou alongside Daniel Craig, with the unknown actress bound to rocket to A-list status.
Tonia revealed on her Facebook page: 'Dear friends. I officially announce I got a part in J. Bond new film!!! Turkey here I come! Thank u all for you love and support! This is officially the happiest day of my life b****es!!!!'

It is believed the brunette beauty previously auditioned for the role of Severine, which in fact was rewarded to French star Bérénice Marlohe.
Delighted Tonia told local Greek press: 'I feel very lucky and blessed, but basically, I am very grateful that this happened, for my family and my friends who believe in me and support trying to do.
'I will do the best, I am very proud because somehow it might be something that will advertise in Greece and I am happy about it.'
Tonia will be on location for five days in Istanbul to film the opening sequence in which Bond is smuggled into the country after being believed to be dead, according to unofficial fan site MI6-HQ.
She has a rather trim CV with few television credits, dating back to 2007.
Tonia's biggest role to date is for film Berberian Sound Studio, a tale of a sound engineer whose work for an Italian horror studio results in terror.
The plethora of Bond girls is not the only excitement attached to the new film, with Bond's iconic Martini reported to be replaced with a beer.

The cocktail-sipping Mr Suave will now be featured sipping on a Heineken.
The release of the film, which marks 50 years of the franchise, is also set to coincide with a global advertising initiative that will star the actor.
Craig will appear in a television ad campaign, while his image will be printed on limited-edition bottles, to go on sale ahead of the film's launch.
Skyfall is set for a November 9 release.

I'm sure Craig's Hoping he'll look more atractive once he gets a few Cans of Heineken down her neck.

Chief of Staff, 007's gone round the bend. Says someone's been trying to feed him a poisoned banana. Fellow's lost his nerve. Been in the hospital too long. Better call him home.

This is becoming a joke surrounding this pugilistic drone with a bevy of beauties that look like his daughters.

Omega's Amber alert comment is spot on Why are they turning Bond into Humbert Humbert(or should I I say Humbert Humpher!)

Re: Tonia Sotiropoulou
In a way I think it shows how Good some of these young actresses are, when thay can
portray Craig as a Sexy Movie star, Because no one watching his Movies thinks it.

Re: Tonia Sotiropoulou
It's interesting that Barbara Broccoli and the directors of the Craig films are politically correct and take Bond very seriously, but still hire 18 year old model types as the Bond girls for Albert Steptoe lookalike Craig.

Re: Tonia Sotiropoulou
Do Babs and Mikey really not realize how old Craig looks compared to the Bond girls?At the most, Craig is 10-15 year older than some of them.When you actually see them together, it seems more like 20-25 years older. He hasn't aged well at.all. Stating the obvious there,I know.

Re: Tonia Sotiropoulou
Hugh Hefner for the Next Bond, at least he'd look a little younger.
Re: Tonia Sotiropoulou
Yeah-there are quite a few older men-Hef included-who do NOT look their age.
Re: Tonia Sotiropoulou
A commercial she did in (I guess) Greece. I think she should have this expression on her face during her love scene with Daniel.
