Greek actress Tonia Sotiropoulou, revealed on her Facebook page (via MI6 HQ) she has a small role in the upcoming James Bond film, Skyfall posting on her wall:
“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 bitches!!!!â€
Now that’s a press release. Sotiropoulou will start filming on April 22 on location in Istanbul, Turkey, where she will shoot two or three scenes over five days. She joins the film’s already cast lovely ladies, Berenice Marlohe and Naomie Harris. Watch video of those two here.
And now for a couple of rapid fire tidbits before ending with a quote and a video…

Oh, and Bond will apparently drink a Heineken instead of a martini in Skyfall. Product placement wins again, but personally, who really cares on this one? The obvious joke here is, “I hope he doesn’t ask for it shaken.” Hardy har, har, har! [source]
Nope, still not done yet as the BBC offers the following video that features some behind-the-scenes looks at the film as well as Daniel Craig saying he’ll continue playing James Bond until someone tells him to stop and as for this new film:
“We haven’t been resting on our laurels, we’ve been plotting what to do with this film… The first one was a new experience and flew by, the second one was the tricky second album, but this one we’ve really planned and got a great script. It’s going to be different from the last one, but it will still be a great Bond movie. [We’re] going to put on a good show.”
Are you happy to see Craig as Bond for a while or would you prefer they continue to shake things up with new actors on a more regular basis?
Remember, as I pointed out yesterday, Roger Moore had the longest running stint as Bond with seven films, followed by Sean Connery with six. Skyfall will mark Craig’s third outing as 007, are you ready to see him continue the franchise for upwards of four more?
Skyfall hits theaters on November 9. For more on the film I dare you to click here.
