Lauren Sanchez Turns Heads in a Ribbed Outfit
But her fashion aside, the journalist is currently making headlines because the Amazon founder reportedly wants her to take on a major role in the upcoming Bond film, potentially even as a Bond girl—a notion that has stirred debate among fans.
When asked about the speculation during her Alba outing, Sanchez didn’t confirm or deny the rumors, keeping the mystery alive with a glowing smile.
A recent report from OK! Magazine revealed that the billionaire plans to launch his wife’s acting career by having her cast in the upcoming James Bond reboot.
“He’s obsessed,” a Hollywood insider told a news outlet, according to the report. “This isn’t just fantasy casting—Jeff wants her on screen, period.”
Jeff Bezos 'Obsessed' With Getting Lauren Sanchez to Play 'Bond' Girl
The report also noted that in 2022, Bezos acquired MGM, a deal that included the studio’s extensive film and television library, featuring iconic franchises such as James Bond and Rocky.
Another source pointed out that Lauren “is not an actress,” but with Bezos now at the helm of MGM, he has the ability to influence the studio’s projects. “But she’s Jeff’s muse, and when you spend $8B, you get what you want,” the second insider claimed.
Fans were outraged at the news and shared their reactions online.
"007: Desperation," said one fan. Another user wrote, "Money CAN buy everything." A third commented, "The only reason she would get the role is if her hubby paid for it." A fourth wrote, "Bond villain, maybe. Bond girl, never." A fifth said, "All the previous Bond girls who worked a lot to get the role and were real actresses would turn in their graves if this happens. But her hubby owns @amazonprime, which owns the 007 rights. Everything has lost its value and meaning since the world buys everything with money!" A sixth commented, "Gross. One of the most appealing things about the Bond girls is that they’re actually beautiful and not over-injected with plastic."
