Skyfall

Sometimes they're naughty, sometimes they're nice, but Bond girls are always beautiful and seductive. The women can be toting guns with very little makeup in one scene or all dolled up for a glamorous night out in the next (and even at times a bit . . . ahem, disheveled). The film franchise celebrates 50 years with the release of Skyfall this week, and the newest women in 007's life are just as sultry as expected. Get tips to capture the classic beauty look from James Bond's many leading ladies past and present.

Skyfall is landing in theaters this week, and we've got Bond on the brain. The franchise hit a significant marker this year, celebrating 50 years since Sean Connery first uttered, "Bond, James Bond," in the series's first film, Dr. No. Connery may have been the first, but he's only one of six actors to portray the special agent. With reigning champ Daniel Craig set to reprise the role as 007 in two more upcoming films, we're looking back at all the big-screen Bonds. Check out their most memorable moments, and let us know who you'd want to be saved by.

With Skyfall coming out this week, we can't help but wonder how studly Daniel Craig will look as the secret spy this time around — and luckily, we don't have to wait! We've put together photos of the handsome actor in his third Bond movie, as well as some picks from the past two films, Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. Check out pictures of the sexy secret agent man now.

James Bond has a history of knowing the hottest women in the world, and with Skyfall set to hit theaters Nov. 9, we're zoning in on his latest crush: Bérénice Marlohe. With pouty lips, legs for days, and a svelte figure, it shouldn't come as a surprise that the French actress also moonlights as a model. As the star actress in the 23rd James Bond film, Bérénice has been making a very stylish mark on the red carpet during her Skyfall premieres and photocalls around the world with Daniel Craig. Her style M.O.? Think sexy body-con dresses from the likes of Giorgio Armani, Elie Saab, and Vivienne Westwood, just to name a few. Get to know more about Bérénice in the slideshow now.

Daniel Craig and his costar Bérénice Marlohe pulled double duty for Skyfall in Germany yesterday. First they met up with director Sam Mendes for a photocall and were later back out in formal gear for the movie's premiere. Bérénice's latest red-carpet look was a black Armani gown. It's been a whirlwind press tour for the Bond cast, who have also stopped in France, Italy, and Spain in the past week. Their Spanish appearance took place on Monday, when Javier Bardem and Naomie Harris joined Daniel for the cameras. All the hard work is clearly paying off since Skyfall is already breaking box office records overseas. The action film will have even more opportunity to dominate theaters when it's released in the US on Nov. 9.

Javier Bardem teamed up with his Skyfall costars Daniel Craig, Naomie Harris, and director Sam Mendes for a photocall in Madrid earlier today. The cast's been all over Europe in recent days, making stops in the UK, France, Italy, and now Spain. Javier and Daniel dressed down in casual attire this morning, but during last week's star-studded London premiere, they suited up to join their lovely wives, Penélope Cruz and Rachel Weisz. The latest installment in the James Bond franchise is already breaking box office records around the globe. Skyfall made an estimated $77.7 million in international ticket sales last weekend alone. The cast is heading to the States for the North American leg of their press tour soon. They're expected on the West Coast next week, leading into the Nov. 9 US release of the film.

Daniel Craig had one of his new Bond girls by his side today, first for a Skyfall photocall, and later for the Roman premiere of the movie. The actor debuted the film for an Italian audience with his costar Naomie Harris, who wore a revealing, see-through lace gown for the red-carpet event.

Today marked the latest promotional stop for Daniel, who is gearing up for the film's US release next month. Skyfall marks Daniel's third film as the iconic spy, and the 007 franchise is also celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. The newest Bond villain, Javier Bardem, wasn't on hand for today's screening, but the duo have paired up for several events in recent weeks. Yesterday, while in Paris, Javier and Daniel gave an interview over beers and took the opportunity to poke fun at Bond's newfound predilection for Heineken over his traditional shaken-not-stirred martini.

Daniel Craig and Javier Bardem had fun at an interview in Paris yesterday. The Skyfall duo swung by the studio for Le Grand Journal to chat about the latest installment of Bond, and also managed to poke fun at Bond's new preference for Heineken by toasting with two beers. Daniel spoke about Bond trading martinis for beer in October's Vanity Fair. He said, "Product placement, whichever way you look at it . . . it's what it is. Heineken gave us a ton of money for there to be Heineken in a shot in a bar. So, how easy is that? Just to say, OK, there's Heineken. It's there — it's in the back of the shot. Without them, the movie couldn't get sold." Javier and Daniel had a busy day of promotions to do following the Paris premiere of Skyfall on Wednesday night. They linked up with their leading lady Bérénice Marlohe for a photocall at a Paris hotel as well.

Daniel Craig, Javier Bardem, and Bérénice Marlohe hit the red carpet for the Paris premiere of Skyfall today. The actors flanked their new Bond girl, who wore a gray sequined Elie Saab gown for the event, and were joined on the carpet by director Sam Mendes. The cast is in France after unveiling the film in the UK earlier this week. The London premiere brought out Prince Charles and his wife, Camilla, as well as Daniel's other half, Rachel Weisz. Also along for the Skyfall press tour are Javier's wife, Penélope Cruz, and their, son Leo. The family touched down together at a Paris airport earlier today, just ahead of the big premiere.
