James Bond is a movie character that will never run out of steam. The newest James Bond movie may have suffered a couple of setbacks in its production schedule, but things seem to be back on track for our favorite British agent, with filming set to start in December. Aside from this we learned that a new Bond girl has been attached to the project.

French actress Lea Seydoux, will be playing the latest Bond Girl in the new 007 movie, Bond 24. With the filming set to begin in a little over a month, the Oscar nominated actress will undergo a series of screen tests in order for the director and producers to determine just what kind of femme fatale look will be assigned to Lea for this Bond movie. The actress most recently appeared for a small role in Wes Anderson's The Grand Budapest Hotel, starring Ralph Fiennes. But she is best remembered for her role in the movie Blue Is The Warmest Color, a romance film that won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. She also appeared in the Tom Cruise movie Mission Impossible: Ghost protocol as the assassin Sabine Moreau, and was also seen in Inglorious Basterds.

Daniel Craig will be coming back as Agent 007, while the several of the cast of the previous Bond movie Skyfall will be back as well. Ben Whitshaw will be back as Q, Naomie Harris as Eve Moneypenny, and Ralph Fiennes as Gareth "M" Mallory will all be back in Bond 24. Reportedly, the villain in this new bond movie will be played by no less than Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years A Slave).

Skyfall director Sam Mendes will be back at the helm of this movie, based on a script by John Logan, Neal Purvis and Robert Wade. No word yet on the official title and plot, but stay tuned here as we keep tabs on more Bond 24 news.
