New ‘Skyfall’ Trailer Featuring Adele’s James Bond Theme Song

The good folks over at Sony Pictures have set loose this new “Adele” trailer for the 23rd James Bond adventure, ‘Skyfall.’ The trailer features Adele’s newly released ‘Skyfall’ theme song and great looks at the likes of Daniel Craig’s James Bond, Javier Bardem’s Silva, Bérénice Marlohe’s Sévérine, Naomie Harris’ Eve, Ralph Fiennes’ Gareth Mallory and Judi Dench’s M in the film. In related 007 news, the official James Bond Facebook page has posted the following “Judi Dench Is M” banner poster for ‘Skyfall.’

Directed by Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Revolutionary Road, Road to Perdition), ‘Skyfall’ sees Daniel Craig and Judi Dench continue their roles as James Bond and M. The cast also includes Naomie Harris as a field agent named Eve, Javier Bardem as Silva; the stories leering and sinisterly creepy lead villain, Albert Finney, Ben Whishaw as Q; MI5′s resident gadgets man, Tonia Sotiropoulou, Rory Kinnear as Bill Tanner; the MI6 Chief of Staff, Ola Rapace, Bérénice Marlohe as the “glamorous and enigmatic” Sévérine, and Ralph Fiennes as Gareth Mallory - who’s been described as “darkly complex.” ‘Skyfall’ will begin its worldwide roll-out in the UK and Ireland on October 26th, with a North American release following on November 9th.

I’ve got incredibly high hopes for ‘Skyfall,’ I love the films trailers and I’m a huge fan of Daniel Craig’s more gritty and intense incarnation of James Bond. This latest 007 chapter was shot at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire, Scotland, Whitehall in London, Shanghai and Istanbul. The screenplay is written by Neal Purvis, Robert Wade and John Logan. The Director of Photography is Roger Deakins, a nine-time Oscar nominee who previously shot the films ‘Jarhead’ and ‘Revolutionary Road’ for Mendes. Composer Thomas Newman will score the film.  You can read the official synopsis and production notes for ‘Skyfall’ below the Adele trailer and banner.

In SKYFALL, Bond’s loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost. SKYFALL marks the return of Daniel Craig as Ian Fleming’s James Bond 007, as well as Judi Dench reprising her role as M. The film also stars franchise newcomers Ralph Fiennes, Javier Bardem and Naomie Harris. The film is directed by Sam Mendes from a screenplay written by Neal Purvis & Robert Wade and John Logan. Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli are producers.
