UPDATE: New details from 'The Wrap' concerning casting for Bond 24
http://www.thewrap.com/chiwetel-ejiofor-eyed-play-villain-next-james-bond-movie-exclusive/
The filmmakers will soon begin casting two key female roles, including a new Bond girl and a Scandinavian with a troubled past who will serve as a brief love interest for Bond.
Furthermore 'Bleeding News' have found a report that reveals that actresses Ida Engvoll And Disa Östrand Have Screen Tested For The Next James Bond Movie

Both actresses be very intresting chooses and not inspecialy for the leed.
Disa Östrand
The British girl will probably be the main one who Bond ends up with at the end.
Wow, Disa Östrand. Loved her in the Swedish film "Känn ingen sorg".
Why?
Funny, I thought I was the only one wishing this.
I don't think he'd play Blofeld. Too young and Blofeld is not black. yes, now you can have a Black man being born from all around the world, but with a family like Blofeld, you'd expect him to be white. Beside, Blofeld's background has been extensively developed in Fleming, far more than any other villain, and why not use it? Should they decide to use Blofeld again of course.
I am betting on it. Apart from Norwegian Julie Ege who played "Scandinavian girl" in OHMSS, they have never specifically sought out Scandinavian girls before. Maybe Craig wants to go back to Stockholm?
"I can't say anything about it. Everything around that franchise is so secretive. But this screentest went fine considering the circumstances. You've only got one take to do it and thus the situation becomes special"
And i keep my hopes up for Chiwatel, his perfomance in especially 12 Years A Slave was amazing. He got that raw power that few actors posess today!
I've seen both of them act in Swedish productions. Both quite young (28). But I'd happily see either one of them in it :-O
Any rumored names for the British lead woman?
My guess is that the big casting news is yet to come. SF noticeably lacked a traditional 'Bond girl' so I can only imagine that Bond 24 will have a juicy role for Bond's love interest. I believe that Mendes will want to cast a name actress in the part as it's likely the role will be the second-lead.
So what prominent British actresses are there to take the possibly part?
The obvious one I think would be Rachel Weisz. I've been desperate to see her in a Bond film for a while now and think she suits the profile perfectly.
Maybe Keira Knightley? But she may be too young to star opposite Craig.
Quite a statement given that neither the villain nor the girl has even been cast.
True. So far they are only rumors. They do fit the bill though and casting Chiwetel Ejiofor would be the same approach as casting Javier Bardem. But it is too close to call.
Anyway, I recommend you Ejiofor's great miniseries The Shadow Line. Brilliant!
Both ladies are stunning and would look good in a Bond movie, but alas I do not know a great deal about them?
EXCITED !
Scandinavia = snow!!!! In my mind, that is what I see. I do want snow scenes in Bond 24; hopefully more than just a tiny bit, too.
Main British Bond girl ... I will have to give it thought. Would be nice to have a blonde, it's been a very long time (Kara) - but more importantly, of course, a good actress.
Excitement is building again ... yay! Real news coming, real news coming ...
And by the way, I'd love Kate Winslet or Rachel Weisz, but I don't see that happening due to their personal connections to Mendes and Craig.
I think this character will be like Solange in CR, Fields in QOS and Severine in Skyfall. So not a leading role but nowhere near as small as the cameo by the greek actress.
