" Penelope Cruz could become the oldest ever Bond girl in the next James Bond movie. The Spanish actress is said to be in talks for the 24th film which commences production next year, according to the Daily Mail.   Cruz turns 40 in April 2014, which would mean she takes over from then-39-year-old Honor Blackman in Goldfinger as the oldest Bond girl. A source claimed: &amp;quot;The producers have tried to get Penelope before, but she has never been available because of other commitments. The discussions have been going on for some time and they are working out the contract details now. &amp;quot;She got back into shape fast after the first baby and will no doubt regain her figure quickly this time. She&amp;#039;ll be a great Bond girl. &amp;quot;Bond girls are always brainy as well as sexy, and that&amp;#039;s totally Penelope.&amp;quot; Penelope Cruz is married to Skyfall villain Javier Bardem. They have been together since 2007. Skyfall director Sam Mendes is said to be in talks with Sony Pictures and MGM to reunite with Daniel Craig for a second time.
