A new "Spectre" featurette showcasing the brand-new Bond girls has been unveiled.

The nearly two-minute video profiled the characters of Léa Seydoux and Monica Bellucci as Madeleine Swann and Lucia Sciarra, respectively. Watch the featurette below.

Sam Mendes, the director for the James Bond film franchise's 24th installment, also appeared in the featurette to talk about the two new women in the iconic spy's life.

"In Spectre the two women who [Bond] hooks up with both have great mystery, they both have depths, and for that you need fantastic actresses," he said, as quoted by SlashFilm. "[Bellucci] is an incredibly seductive presence in life and in the movie, and I'm thrilled she's in it."

The British filmmaker continued, "Madeleine [...] needed to be soulful, feisty, and complicated. It probably couldn't have been a total newcomer. We needed someone with a certain amount of life experience and maturity, and she's the whole package, really."

French actress Seydoux described her character, a doctor, as an intelligent and "a very sensitive human character," SlashFilm added. Bellucci, on the other hand, said that she portrays an Italian widow "full of secrets."

"Her mafioso husband is killed and she risks the same thing happening to her," the 50-year-old Italian actress said, as reported by the news outlet.

The first full-length trailer for "Spectre" was revealed in July, highlighting Daniel Craig reprising his role as the British spy. Christoph Waltz's Franz Oberhauser was finally revealed in the sneak peek as well, and fans got to see the villain's deep connection with Bond. You can check out the trailer here.

"Spectre" will debut in the U.K. on Oct. 26 and in U.S. theaters on Nov. 6. Also starring are Ralph Fiennes, Dave Bautista, Andrew Scott, Ben Whishaw, Rory Kinnear, Alessandro Cremona, Jesper Christensen, Naomie Harris, and Stephanie Sigman, the film's official site wrote.

As written by the movie's official page, the synopsis reads: "A cryptic message from the past sends James Bond on a rogue mission to Mexico City and eventually Rome, where he meets Lucia Sciarra (Bellucci), the beautiful and forbidden widow of an infamous criminal. Bond infiltrates a secret meeting and uncovers the existence of the sinister organization known as SPECTRE."

Production for the film was based at London's Pinewood Studios, but scenes were also shot in locations in Mexico, Rome, and Morocco, Daily Mail reported.

Mendes said that directing "Spectre" was "a fantastic life-changing thing" and was akin to "one big experience," but the filmmaker confirmed last month that he wouldn't be working on future James Bond films anymore, BBC noted. He also helmed 2012's "Skyfall."
