James Bond fans can't wait for the new movie "Bond 24."

Fans are eager to know who will play the Bond girl in "Bond 24." Previous James Bond movies have casted the likes of Halle Berry, Denise Richards and Eva Green to spice things up a bit.

And now that "Bond 24's" release date is nearing, reports are starting to circulate that the studio might have already casted a well renowned artist to play the part.

Rumor has it that "Diamonds" singer Rihanna has been chosen to star in "Bond 24." And while some speculate that she will be playing Bond Girl, a source tells Hollywood Life in an exclusive interview, that RiRi will have a different role for the new 007 flick.

"There have definitely been discussions of her joining the cast to be a Bond Girl. But she will not be the most focused Bond Girl if she gets the part. It will be more of a glorified cameo."

"Something that they have done in the past with people like Madonna, it will be a brief part of the film if she ends up making an appearance."

But Rihanna's involvement will not be limited to her small cameo role. As the source added, she has been eyed to do the theme for "Bond 24."

"They are actually looking for her to do the theme and the role would just be an added bonus."

Meanwhile, other reports claim that producers have already narrowed down their Bond girl choices to two of the hottest female celebrities to date- Kate Upton and Penelope Cruz.

It would seem that Sony has been eyeing Cruz for a long time now, but that doesn't hide the fact that Kate Upton is a viable bet for the role.

"It's a very prestigious title, and it would be a very cool role. I would need to go through some intense training to learn all the Bond Girl moves," Upton admitted.

Meanwhile, other reports have claimed that "Bond 24's" plot will continue from "Skyfall." Director Sam Mendes hinted on some movie details in a recent interview with Vulture.
