SIR RICHARD BRANSON landed cameo roles for himself and his son in the new JAMES
BOND movie after he helped to save movie dollars by providing a plane at the
last minute.
A lifelong Bond fan, Branson asked director MARTIN CAMPBELL if his generosity
would warrant a part in CASINO ROYALE.
Producer BARBARA BROCCOLI explains, "He was very supportive of us and he
helped us out when we needed a plane in Prague.
"He said, 'Can I just do a little cameo' and Martin said, 'Come to the
airport and we'll stick you in the little security thing and you can set the
bells off.'
"He had a lot of fun and he was a trooper and it was a long night. He and his
son were in the scene and they were great."
Branson can be seen playing a frenzied passenger going through airport
security in the new Bond film.
