007 fans rejoice - the wait is over! The name of the new James Bond movie has been finally been revealed: Quantum of Solace.
The title of the film, once again starring the hunky Daniel Craig was announced today.
The film, which had been tentatively titled “Bond 22”, also stars British newcomer Gemma Atkinson and Ukrainian model and actress Olga Kurylenko.
Fresh out of drama school, Gemma, 21, is set to play MI6 agent Fields, while Olga will play the “dangerously alluring” Camille, the latest in a long-legged line up of Bond babes.
Daniel Craig, who despite being crap, received rave reviews for his performance in Casino Royale is back with Dame Judi Dench as “M”. And today it also emerged that Craig is keen to do more Bond movies after this one.
At a launch at Pinewood Studios, producer Michael G Wilson said the title was taken from an original Ian Fleming short story.
He said: "It's from a Fleming short story from the compendium For Your Eyes Only. It's uncharacteristic of most of Fleming's work. It's a character study that doesn't involve plots or anything with spies.
"We thought it was an intriguing title that references what's happening to Bond and what's happening to him in this film."
Bond producer Barbara Broccoli said: "It's not a revenge movie. It's much more complicated than that. There's much more action and it also deals with the inner turmoil of Bond following Casino Royale.”
