It’s
not easy for an actress to break away from the Bond girl mould and achieve
longevity in Hollywood. There have only been a few actresses who have had the
role of James Bond’s eye-candy and have achieved the feat. But now with the
incredibly successful release of “300: Rise of an Empire” over the past
weekend, with Eva Green formerly best-known as Vesper Lynd in Casino Royale in
2006 of the “007” franchise, one more actress might be able to boast of this
achievement.
As
of the 10th of March, the latest “300” film has dominated the
competition in the States, bagging an approximate $45.1 million domestically
and $87.8 million from 58 other countries. This is pretty cool seeing as the
film has mighty armies of blood-thirsty men being led by a dainty, albeit
feisty, woman – one, Eva Green.
Eva
plays the warrior queen, Atremisia, in the movie and is not only being praised
by audiences for her physique and beauty but also by critics for her performance
and screen presence. She is perhaps the best thing about the movie.
Eva,
who is 33 years old, was born in Paris to an actress mother and a dentist
father. She also has a non-identical twin sister, Joy, who was born minutes after
her. Eva found acting as a passion as a teenager and went on to graduate from
the American University of Paris and then to further study Drama in Paris
and London. Much more than in Hollywood, she is an accomplished actress in
France.
But
now that we have had a taste of Eva in leather in sword-fighting mode, we know
we’re going to love her in her next release, the also highly-anticipated
"Sin City 2: A Dame to Kill For". The movie also stars Josh Brolin,
Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Bruce Willis, Rosario Dawson, and Jessica Alba. With a
cast like this, and with Eva playing a temptress who enlists Josh Brolin’s
character in an attempt to escape her ex-husband, “Sin City 2” is definitely
going to be another movie worth waiting for this year. Eva Green is the new
ultimate femme-fatale.
