Kate Bosworth

Two-time Oscar winner Jane Fonda finally met Kate Bosworth last night at the Oscars, And she proclaimed, “I want her to do the ‘Barbarella’ sequel!”
Bosworth’s name joins a long list of ladies that have circled the project over the years, including Drew Barrymore, Sienna Miller, Erica Durance, and Rose McGowan.

The original Barbarella came out in 1968 and starred Jane Fonda as an intergalactic agent who is dispatched to apprehend a missing scientist whose latest handiwork threatens to bring evil back to the galaxy.

The ‘new’ Barbarella is scheduled to be released in 2012 and will be directed by Robert Luketic who directed Legally Blonde and Monster in Law
