One of Hollywood’s most courageous actresses who understands the value of her star and her persona is Angelina Jolie.

Angelina has never been content with the opportunities presented and is always clear about the character she needs to play.

She declined the role of Vesper Lynd for the new James Bond in Casino Royale in 2006 because she wanted to be James Bond instead.

She had other dreams, but being a Bond Girl was not one of them.

Angelina Jolie had been invited to play Bond Girl without having to audition.

But she was more interested in playing James Bond than in the girl. Eva Green was eventually cast in the role.
