In the Eric Barbier movie, Kurylenko plays a model who gets caught up in a blackmail plot.
In her careers as a top European model, Kurylenko has appeared in numerous advertising campaigns for such designers as Kenzo, Helena Rubenstein and Just Cavalli. Her magazine covers include US Glamour, French Elle and Marie Claire.
Kurylenko recently starred in the movie Hitman with Elijah Wood and also in a segment of the movie, Paris Je T'Aime.
A mere six months after graduating from Rada, 21-year-old Arterton has been named as MI6 agent in the movie, codenamed Bond 22.
The daughter of a welder and a cleaner from Gravesend in Kent, Miss Arterton made her film debut last year, in Stephen Poliakoff's Capturing Mary.

She played Rosaline in Love's Labours Lost at the Globe Theatre, appeared as Kelly the naughty head girl in the remake of St Trinian's and this year she will appear in Guy Ritchie's latest gangster film RocknRolla.
Despite this she claims to be uncomfortable with the trappings of fame and has said in the past: "It's not me, although I suppose it comes with the job."
When offered a chauffeur-driven car, she said: "I just don't want it. Can I get on the Tube, please and go home?"
Miss Arterton shares the same agent as Daniel Craig, who had the final say when casting her predecessor Eva Green - another unknown - in Casino Royale.

It is thought the new film will take up where Casino Royale left off and will be loosely based on the Ian Fleming short story Risico, where Bond is dispatched to infiltrate a drug ring flooding Britain with heroin.
