Before Mexican actress Stephanie Sigman was sharing a bed with Daniel Craig in the upcoming Bond film Spectre, the woman grew up in one of the most volatile regions of Mexico, and her brother says she’s lucky she got out.

Sigman, 27, appears as the mysterious Bond girl Estrella, opposite of Craig in the opening scene of the film at a Mexico City hotel, but the actress originally hails from the state of Sonora, which has been the battleground of the Sinaloa drug cartel for years.
