* HollywoodHypeMachine: It got behind her big time after her role as Strawberry Fields in ''Film/QuantumOfSolace''. Her attempted breakout roles -- ''Film/{{Clash of the Titans|2010}}'', ''Film/HanselAndGretelWitchHunters'', ''Film/PrinceOfPersiaTheSandsOfTime'' and ''Film/{{Byzantium}}'' -- didn't amount to much due to either receiving lacklustre reviews or flying under the radar. She's still been working steadily in the years since, but mostly in indie projects and/or supporting roles. She's indicated she actually prefers indie stuff, stating in [[https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/film/2018/jul/14/gemma-arterton-early-career-didnt-want-bond-girl an interview]] with the Guardian:

* MsFanservice: She's been naked or in sex scenes in a ''lot'' of her films. In some cases it gets played more for FanDisservice though, such as a particular scene in ''Quantum of Solace'' ([[spoiler:her character's naked corpse is found covered in oil]]), ''Byzantium'' (she plays a vampire who was once a SexSlave and still works as a stripper/prostitute purely to support herself), and ''The Disappearance of Alice Creed'' (where her character is forcibly stripped by her kidnappers).
