I'm with you there, GL. I don't find her attractive in the slightest, unfortunately.
I didn't say she was Bond girl material. A bit too common looking, on these pics at least.
Jessica Brown Finlay, a Downton Abbey alum would make a good Bond girl. She's a good actress and very pretty.
I would like to mention that I concur in the opinion that she has not many visual positive aspects. She might have a nice character. ;)
She's very pretty, but looks rather sweet and innocent, unlike most Bond vixens. The above comparison to Kara Milovy seems apt.
Have to say that i would tend to give this possible rumour more credit than previous entries? The reason being that (1) yes she is a very good actress, (2) Looks are not everything especially when it comes to the drama in a Bond leading lady, and (3) she was in Downton which as i understand it is very big in the USA. We know how B/O success allegedly depends on how the movie goes down in America so she would be known to the American public?!
I don't really see her as Bond girl material though. I am not against innocent Bond girls, but this one does not look... There is something lacking. Too banal?
She does have the girl-next-door look. Now that I think about it, she might make a cracking good Moneypenny, but alas...
I'd say the same about the journalist (Birgitte Hjort Sørensen) in Borgen. She is not particularly good looking, but has something about her. Attractiveness on screen is not necessarily a direct corollary of looks.
Honor Blackman in Goldfinger does not have the conventional good looks of a Bond girl, but she's widely regarded as one of the best. I think you can say the same of Diana Rigg. Although I admit, both of them are probably better looking than Joanne Froggatt.
Maybe that's the only reason why she's being rumored, the Aston Martin events. Just a thought.
I don't think she's a particularly good actress, although if that were a key criteria, you'd have to dismiss half of the actresses in the history of Bond.
I think part of the problem is that the relationship between Bond and MP is being reimagined and it's difficult to understand just what is going on between them. I actually found the shaving scene a little bit odd. May be she's just too good looking for MP.
So, I'm 100% behind her becoming a Bond girl.
Team Froggatt starts now :x
It does seem like unlikely casting in a Bond movie, but I think she has the acting chops to carry off the big screen. Come on Joanne!
She is gorgeous, but i guess to sweet for the average Bond girl? Anyway she is a very good actress and can play the damsel in distress almost perfectly, maybe the other Bond girl would be the hot and sexy one and she is the sweet innocent one. I would love it.
True, screen presence can make up for a lot, but its the nose, that kills it for me and that very bland whole package. But if she gets the role, good for her.
But the sweet and innocent end up surviving, so noo...
:D
Are the two of us having a civilised conversation? What is going on? Surely something has gone wrong?!
B-) when we are old, we will remember this day.
