“Freida came to the attention of the Bond team when they were casting Quantum of Solace," the Sun quotes their source as saying.
“She was too young at the time to have a part as a love interest for a secret agent.
“But she has blossomed into an incredibly stunning young woman and would look perfect on Daniel Craig’s arm."
