Caterina Murino, a fourth-placed Miss Italy, joins the likes of Halle Barry and Denise Richards as a Bond Girl. She stars beside the new James Bond actor Daniel Craig, who replaces Pierce Brosnan, in Casino Royale 2006. Her bond girl screen name is Solange, the wife of Dimitrios (the bad guy who's out to wreck James Bond). Interestingly, Solange sleeps with Bond to seek revenge on her abusive husband.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, she revealed that she broke a rib while horseback-riding just before the casting of Casino Royale. Ironically, she had a horseback-riding scene in the movie. Contrary to what many people think, Murino says Daniel Craig is "a great actor" and "the right choice" for playing James Bond. Like Solange, Murino had her time in casinos - and she won money playing slot machines and roulette.

Born in 1974, in Cagliari of Sardinia, a beautiful scenic port in Italy, Murino studied drama and was a stage actress before she acted on TV. Her career took off in 2004, when she starred in a French comedy L' Enquête Corse, opposite established actor Jean Reno.

Besides acting, the multi-talented actress is triligual (she speaks French in addition to English and of course Italian), sings well, dances well, and also does horseback riding, of course.
