Los Angeles -- Mumbai-born actress Freida Pinto, star of "Slumdog Millionaire," could soon be the next female star of a James Bond movie, a source says.

An unidentified source said Pinto has been asked by Barbara Broccoli, who produces the James Bond spy films, about serving as the next Bond girl, People.com reported Sunday.

The source said the 24-year-old beauty, who starred as Latika in "Slumdog," has been in the sights of Bond creators before the franchise's last installment, "Quantum of Solace."

"Freida came to the attention of the Bond team when they were casting 'Quantum of Solace,'" the source said, but "she was too young at the time to have a part as a love interest for a secret agent."

Pinto recently parlayed her "Slumdog" fame into an Indian Vogue magazine cover shoot and a deal with the Estee Lauder cosmetics group, People.com said.

London -- The movie "The Young Victoria," about the late British royal, Queen Victoria, a major historical inaccuracy, Queen Elizabeth II says.

An unidentified source said Queen Elizabeth II felt the film from director Jean-Marc Vallee and screenwriter Julian Fellowes went overboard in portraying Victoria's husband, Prince Albert, as trying to save her from an assassin's bullet, The Daily Telegraph reported Sunday.

"She thought the film had a lot of good points but she is a stickler for accuracy. She wasn't too impressed they had Albert diving in front of Victoria to take the bullet in an assassination attempt," the source said.

"It simply did not happen and her majesty questioned the need for such a dramatic inaccuracy. She also thought the uniforms worn by the British officers looked too Germanic."
