Ursula Andress | Born: 1936

You probably have heard the latest news about Daniel Craig and his future in the James Bond franchise. Inevitably, when news about the film franchise comes up, news about Bond girls also surface. Ursula Andress was one of the first ones to don the mantle of Bond girl. There was actually a lot of luck involved as this woman from Ostermundigen was at the right place, the right time, and had the right talent to take on the role.

Andress turned 85 this March 2021, and despite her age, the beauty that made her a very attractive Bond girl has never faded. She was actually part of two movies, Dr. No and Casino Royale. Also, as someone who spent too much time in Italy, Andress also has film credits for three Italian movies, Un americano a Roma, Le avventure di Giacomo Casanova and La catena dell’odio. Now that she is retired, she splits her time between Italy and Switzerland.
