Olga Kurylenko

American audiences who caught Ukrainian beauty Olga Kurylenko's first major international crossover role will find it difficult to forget her. She played the creepy, unnamed vampire who enters into a blood-soaked love affair with a young American tourist (Elijah Wood) in "Quartier de la Madeleine," Vincenzo Natali's five-minute contribution to the European omnibus film Paris, Je T'Aime (2006). Kurylenko predominantly tackled thriller roles for her next several assignments, with supporting turns in such features as Le Serpent (2006) and Hitman (2007), and made international headlines when she landed the role of Camille in the 22nd installment of the James Bond series, released in the fall of 2008.
