Esti Ginzburg is just 20, but she’s already had a pretty colorful life, as a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model, a budding actress and even an Israeli soldier! The beauty from Tel Aviv made her acting debut in Joel Schumacher’s 2010 film “Twelve,” and the acclaimed director had nothing but praise for his young leading lady.

“With Esti’s looks and with a lot of determination, she could definitely have a Hollywood career,” he told an interviewer, adding, “After taking acting classes, you’ll see she’ll get far in life. I think she should be a James Bond girl. She could play that role wonderfully.” We certainly agree with that!
