New James Bond Photo: The Spy, The Car!

  When I saw this photo from Fandango.com I immediately thought of Sean Connery in Switzerland in Goldfinger.

  Daniel Craig in a classic suit in a shot with his classic car. We know Skyfall is filming and set in Scotland, the home of Bond’s father. This sure looks like 007 on the way to Skyfall Lodge.

 

Fandango’s preview story (out Monday) says the story will also take place in Macau. I think this is the first time that location has been mentioned. We know exterior shooting will take place in Shanghai. If true, this will be first time 007 has been in Macau since Roger Moore in 1974’s The Man With the Golden Gun.

Thanks to Fandango.com.

New James Bond Film Like Goldfinger

  Goldfinger is the gold standard for many James Bond fans. The third movie has the most iconic villain, henchman and Bond girl – Auric Goldfinger, Oddjob and Pussy Galore. Those three roles along with the thrilling pre-credit sequence, Shirley Bassey theme song and Q’s car – in a way set the blueprint for future Bond movies.   

  Producer Michael G. Wilson teases that 007’s next adventure Skyfall will have  “magical 1960’s feel.”

 “Sam Mendes and Daniel Craig are taking it back to a 60’s feel – more Sean Connery. I think that’s what the fans wanted,” Wilson tells The People.

  “There’s a magical Goldfinger feel surrounding it all,” Wilson added and also teased that he’s trying to get all six Bond actors together to mark the film’s release and the franchise’s 50th Anniversary in 2012.

  Thanks to NME for the Wilson interview. In an earlier post – Craig discussed why he wanted Sam Mendes as the director for Skyfall and the Bond films they both enjoyed.
