Former Bond Girl Eva Green has signed on to play femme fatal Ava Lord in Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller’s long-awaited Sin City sequel A Dame to Kill For. The gritty actioner is based on the Miller comic of the same name, published in 1993 by Dark Horse Comics.

Rodriguez and Miller said in a press release:

We’ve been wanting to tell this story for a very long time. Ava Lord is one of the most deadly and fascinating residents of Sin City.

From the start, we knew that the actor would need to be able to embody the multifaceted characteristics of this femme fatale and we found that in Eva Green. We are ecstatic that Eva is joining us.

Sin City: A Dame to Kill For co-stars Mickey Rourke as Marv, Bruce Willis as Hartigan, Rosario Dawson as Gail, Jaime King as twins Goldie/Wendy and Jessica Alba as stripper Nancy. New faces include Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Josh Brolin, Ray Liotta, Jeremy Piven, Christopher Meloni, Jamie Chung, Alexa Vega, Juno Temple and Playboy model Crystal McCahill.

Green, best known for playing Bond girl Vesper Lynd in Casino Royal and sorceress Morgan Le Fay on the Starz short-lived series “Camelot,” played witch Angelique Bouchard in last year’s Dark Shadows. She’ll next be seen in producer Zack Snyder’s 300 sequel 300: Rise of an Empire. She plays Artemisia, the golden goddess who leads Persian king Xerxes into battle against Athenian general Themistokles.

Dimension Films will release Sin City: A Dame to Kill For on Oct. 4.
