News came in that "Harry Potter" star Daniel Radcliffe is interested in a role in the movie. According to an article of The Sun:

"Daniel thinks he would be an excellent villain in the 'Bond' films. He loves the franchise but admires the villains as much as Bond."

"He feels he could appear as a modern bad guy, an evil mastermind who wants to take down MI5. And like the old Bond films, he hopes the role may be recurring."

It's no secret that one of the most sought after character in a movie is becoming a Jame's Bond bad guy. The movie franchise is known to have produced award winning actors following a role in the film.

While there is no confirmed news yet on who's to play the villain for the film, it's interesting to see a young star to fill in the role.

In other James Bond 24 movie news, Sports Illustrated model Kate Upton is allegedly being eyed to become the next Bond Girl.

In addition, to her blockbuster film opposite Hollywood A-lister Cameron Diaz and Leslie Mann, which racked approximately $93 million earnings worldwide, a James Bond movie is certainly a great career builder for the model.

Working with the likes of Veteran actresses Diaz and Mann, Upton admitted that the project helped her a lot considering that she's still a newbie in acting.

"I was on set with Cameron Diaz and Leslie Mann and they were the most inspirational and amazing women I had the honor to work with. They were really helpful in my experience with the movie, and I really appreciated all of their advice and all of their encouragement throughout the movie set," Upton explained in an interview via the Inquisitr.

On that note, her recent rise to fame on the big screen made it possible for the casting crew to consider her in the upcoming James Bond 24 movie, with a working title of "Everything Or Nothing: The Untold Story Of 007."

Apparently, The Sports Illustrated model is up for the role, but she admitted that she needs a lot of work to be able to fit for the role.

"It's a very prestigious title, and it would be a very cool role. I would need to go through some intense training to learn all the Bond Girl moves," Upton admitted.

However, a leaked paper from Sony suggests that the studio has been eyeing for Penelope Cruz to follow the footsteps of Halle Berry and Denise Richards in becoming the next Bond Girl.

The Sun reported that, "Bond bosses have been chasing her [Penelope Cruz] since Daniel became 007 in 2006. But schedules and her pregnancies meant it never materialised. At this stage no one at Sony will confirm it."
