New Skyfall Video Blog Takes James Bond On Location

Tomorrow is the big day. You've probably heard us talk about it multiple times this week, but Friday marks the official 50th anniversary of James Bond films and while we still have a few minutes left until it's 0:07 in the UK (the time that Adele's theme song for the brand new movie will be released), right now we have a nice update from the set of Skyfall in the form of a brand new video blog.

In previous editions we've seen the production fly to various parts of the globe, but this time the focus goes beyond cities and instead looks at the job of location scouting and finding the perfect places to shoot the scenes that you need. The video premiered over on the official 007 You Tube page and you can watch it below.

Directed by Sam Mendes, Skyfall sees James Bond (played by Daniel Craig for the third time), in conflict with M (Dame Judi Dench) when a dark secret from her past comes back to haunt her. Meanwhile he must protect MI6 and the world from a villain named Raoul Silva (Javier Bardem). Also featured in the film will be Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris, Berenice Marlohe, Ben Whishaw, Helen McCrory, Rory Kinear, and Albert Finney. We still have a while to wait until the film arrives in theaters on November 9th, but stay tuned for the release of Adele's single (watch the countdown HERE) and to see more from the movie head over to our Blend Film Database.
