Apparently, Olga Kurylenko Would Rather Be Naked Than... Anything Else

Last year's Bond babe and budding Hollywood It Girl is rapidly disappearing from the movie world.

In the months since the release of "Bond 22" (i.e.... and it still bothers us to say this... Quantum of Solace), Olga Kurylenko has all but vanished from the spotlight. Then again, if you've been keeping an eye on the internet for her seemingly relentless yet obscure photo shoots, you have been seeing a lot more of her than usual.

Her in-production film credit is this one:

Orlando Bloom, Vincent Cassel (Eastern Promises) and Olga Kurylenko (Quantum of Solace) have signed on to star in The Cross, which will be directed by Andrew Niccol (Lord of War).

According to Variety, Niccol has initiated pre-production on the $24 million sci-fi escape story.

Set in a border town, The Cross returns Niccol -- Oscar-nommed for writing The Truman Show -- to his favorite domain: the near future. Bloom plays a man seeking to cross a mysterious border, something no one else has achieved; Cassel limns the guard who will go to any lengths to foil him. Kurylenko takes the femme lede. [MovieWeb]

Yeah, uh... we'll wait with bated breath for that one...

Anyway, she also continues to do what she does best, namely this photo shoot... and these...

More Olga Kurylenko Nude Photos Surface

When Olga Kurylenko appeared onscreen during Quantum of Solace for the first time, we had two thoughts: "Wow, that was the first time we've seen a Bond girl naked before her career took off" and "She's so much more attractive without all the bad lighting and photoshopping offscreen..."

These photos prove that, as bad as Marc Forster's storytelling technique was, at least he made Olga look hotter than she does in these lousy pictorals...

Not that we're complaining about these photos, but they don't do her justice.

Olga Kurylenko: "My Treasure Trove of Topless Photos Don't Count As Porn"

Brian Fairbanks — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 16:52:00 GMT

It used to be "become a Bond girl, end up doing softcore Hollywood porn later." Now, it seems getting that in order to get the attentions of 007's producers, you have to do a bunch of nude scenes or topless spreads in order to land the role of one the spy's femme fatales...

Since we're as excited as can be for Quantum of Solace, the followup to Casino Royale, we will find every excuse imaginable to talk about it. Even better when that excuse involves posting a series of nude photos and other career highlights from our second favorite* new Bond babe.

Speaking of these photos to IMDB News, Kurylenko says:

"There are no actresses who haven't appeared naked. These things are not unusual.
"All the magazine pictures are artistic. I didn't do any pornography. It was all done in silhouette. It was advertising stuff.
"It's something I have done but it's not what I enjoy doing. It was part of the job. I haven't been modelling for a few years now. I don't have to. Movies are my passion.
"I always have respect towards people and I do everything with love and respect. There are much graver things in the world to worry about."

No actresses who haven't appeared naked? In that case, Olga, please fill us in on where we might find Scarlett Johansson, Grace Kelly, and full frontal Kerry Washington photos...

All right, if you have been paying attention to this blog, you will have noticed that we have been totally excited about the next Bond film -- in part, because we've been hoping that they would hammer out the kinks they ran into during the first go-round with Daniel Craig, and in part because the ladies they've tapped for roles in the movie have been so. Freaking. Hot.

Then, yesterday, we learn that the new Bond film is gonna be called Quantum of Solace.

Quantum.

Of.

Solace.

And also, we see that they've given new Bond girls Gemma Arterton and Olga Kurylenko some seriously crappy haircuts.

What.

The.

Fuck?

We get it. At least, we think we get the title, anyways. Bond -- after having his heart broken by -- SPOILER!!! --Vesper Lynd in Casino Royale is looking for a modicum -- some might say a "quantum" -- of solace in... what? Bloody Revenge? The ripe buttocks and supple lips of the lovely ladies who've been cast in the flick? OK, fair enough. And yet. It's sort of... how do we say this... the WORST TITLE EVER.

WORST.

EVER.

Right?
