Shia LaBeouf, Sienna Miller and Ellen Page have all been nominated for the Orange Rising Star award at the British Academy Film And Television Awards (BAFTAs) this year. The actors will compete against Sam Riley, star of Joy Division biopic Control and Lust Caution's Wei Tang for the prize, which seeks to recognize up-and-coming performers demonstrating "exceptional talent." The category was established in honor of late casting director Mary Selway, who died in 2004, with the inaugural honor going to Scottish actor James McAvoy. Casino Royale star Eva Green, who won the award last year, announced the nominees on Tuesday, saying, "This year's five nominees are all actors who have really stood out in their work and I'm sure we'll see a lot more of them throughout 2008." The honor is the only one of the BAFTAs voted for the public. The winner will be announced at the official ceremony on February 10.

Ukranian actress Olga Kurylenko is to become a Bond girl alongside British star Gemma Arterton.

The 28-year-old former model will reportedly take on the coveted part of Daniel Craig's sidekick for the currently untitled movie which is due to hit cinemas in November.

Kurylenko - who recently starred alongside Timothy Olyphant in 2007 film Hitman - is the latest in a long line of beauties to appear in the superspy franchise, including Halle Berry, Kim Basinger and, most recently, Eva Green in last year's Casino Royale.

Twenty-one year-old St Trinian's star Arterton was also rumoured to have landed a role in the 22nd installment of the Bond series and has been sworn to secrecy until the final cast list is announced later this month.

Actress Eva Green is under constant pressure from her mother to quit the movie industry.

The French beauty admits her mum's words of advice often tempt her away from the business, because she finds the anxiety triggered by her stressful job hard to handle.

However, the Casino Royale star's desire to ditch her career is balanced by the satisfaction she gets from being on a film set.

She tells Vogue magazine, "(My mother tells me), 'You can still change. You can still get out.' And you do get... not that much pleasure. I mean, it's great, the preparation and the being on set, but you have all the anxiety between films, waiting, waiting, waiting.

"And all the competition and all the bulls**t."
