Sydney Sweeney tipped for Bond girl role in 007 comeback Sydney Sweeney, the breakout star of Euphoria and The White Lotus, might soon be stepping into one of the most iconic roles in cinema — the Bond girl. According to a report in the UK Sun, the 27-year-old actress is the top pick for the female lead in the upcoming James Bond movie, which will be directed by Denis Villeneuve.
A source close to the production said that Villeneuve sees Sweeney as both talented and appealing to younger audiences, something important as the franchise looks to stay modern and fresh. The director has reportedly been impressed by Sweeney’s rapid rise in Hollywood and her growing popularity.
The two have spent time together recently, and Villeneuve has been keeping a close eye on her career. Sweeney was also seen chatting with Villeneuve and former Bond girl Ana de Armas at the Toronto Film Festival back in 2023 — a moment that fans are now seeing in a new light.
Her presence at big events, like Jeff Bezos’s wedding in Venice last month, also shows just how far she has come in the Hollywood scene. With her mix of beauty, talent, and star power, many believe she would be a perfect fit for the next era of James Bond movies.
While nothing has been confirmed yet, all signs suggest Sydney Sweeney could soon take on the glamorous and action packed role and fans are excited to see what’s next.
