LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Dutch actress Carice Van Houten continues to notch the names of Hollywood's leading men on her dramatic bedpost.

The "Black Book" star, who recently wrapped the role of Tom Cruise's love interest in the World War II thriller "Valkyrie," has booked back-to-back roles in films starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Jude Law.

In Warner Bros.' "Body of Lies," an Iraq-set spy thriller being directed by Ridley Scott, Van Houten will play DiCaprio's girlfriend. Russell Crowe also stars.

Universal's sci-fi thriller "Repossession Mambo" follows a repo man (Law) made up of artificial organs who struggles to make payments after receiving a heart transplant and must go on the run from his former partner. Van Houten will play Law's wife. Miguel Sapochnik is directing; production is set to begin this month in Toronto.
