We all know that the makers of the James Bond franchise are still looking for a replacement to the dashing Daniel Craig. Amidst all this, speculation is rife about who the next Bond girl shall be. And as per a popular daily, two of our top Bollywood ladies — Priyanka and Deepika — are also vying for the coveted role. Currently, both PeeCee and DP are in the US shooting for their respective Hollywood projects and there is a good chance that either of them might bag this plum project. In fact, buzz is that both of them have already auditioned for the role and have expressed a strong interest to come on board.
A source said, “Deepika is finishing the final leg of xXx — she had given them bulk dates for the film. And over the past 18 months, Priyanka Chopra has been shooting for Quantico, and only recently she started work on Baywatchtoo. Both actresses have very strong teams there who are deftly managing their work and have been pitching them to various Hollywood studios. And they have also made it clear to their respective agents that they are not interested in doing two-bit roles.”
Besides Priyanka and Deepika, there are a few other names too that are being considered.
The source added, “Who wouldn’t want to be the Bond girl? It’s a role that’s on everyone’s wish list but only the chosen one gets it. Now, it’s entirely up to the makers.”
Who do you think will make for the perfect ‘Bond Girl’ - DP or PeeCee?
