She also had a minor role as one of Princess Padme's handmaidens, Dorme in Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones.
Byrne has beaten out other hopeful actresses for this coveted Bond Girl film role such as
Angelina Jolie (who turned the role down because of her recent pregnancy),
Charlize Theron (wanted too much money)
and Rachael Stirling (LEFT) - daughter of Diana Rigg (RIGHT)(who was Bond Girl Tracy in 1969's On Her Majesty's Secret Service).
Casino Royale was Ian Fleming's first James Bond Novel, originally published in 1953.
In it, Bond is sent out on his very first 'Licence To Kill' Mission; he has been provided with an assistant from MI6, the beautiful but emotionally turbulent Russian Born Vesper Lynd, who becomes his lover but she is holding a terrible secret from Bond.
'Casino Royale', starring Daniel Craig in his first appearance as James Bond (he replaced Brosnan who was released from the role after four films) begans shooting at the end of the month and is scheduled to for release this November.
