New James Bond film title named

Producers at London’s Pinewood Studios revealed Thursday, the title of the new James Bond film due later this year is Quantum of Solace. Kind of a serious sounding title. Producer Michael G Wilson revealed the inspiration for the title:

“It’s from an Ian Fleming short story from the compendium For Your Eyes Only. It’s uncharacteristic of most of Fleming’s work,” he said.

“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,” Wilson hinted.

Ukrainian model and actress Olga Kurylenko, 28, has been cast as the new Bond girl, the “dangerously alluring” Camille, while Casino Royale star Daniel Craig reprises his role as the famous spy.

The hotly-anticipated movie, also stars British newcomer Gemma Arterton, 21, in the role of a female agent.

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.”

Broccoli also revaled she expected Craig, whose casting was criticised by many Bond fans when it was first announced, to make more 007 films after this one.

“We have talked about doing more films with him. He seems very happy to do that. So we’ll just film one at a time,” she said.
