“Quantum of Solace” Pushed Back a Week
Columbia Pictures has confirmed that they have decided to push the theatrical release of “Quantum of Solace” back a single week to November 14th. It makes sense, to take advantage of the holiday movie-going crowd.
“The strategic move places the highly-anticipated James Bond adventure one week closer to the prime movie-going holiday window and takes advantage of last week’s decision to move the release date of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.”
“We saw the film recently in London and Marc Forster, Daniel Craig and the entire team at EON have truly delivered another extraordinary Bond adventure,” said Jeff Blake, Chairman of Worldwide Marketing and Distribution for the Columbia Tristar Motion Picture Group. “‘Quantum of Solace’ is a seamless continuation of the storyline that began with the last film. We believe November 14th is a great date that allows us to play straight through Thanksgiving and right into Christmas. The Bond films have a long history of entertaining audiences in this holiday corridor going back to Goldeneye in 1995. The studio enjoyed tremendous success opening ‘Casino Royale’ in North America on November 17, 2006, and we believe this decision will give the public a wider opportunity to see the film over the holiday.”
New Daniel Craig’s “Quantum of Solace” Photos
Three more pictures from the upcoming James Bond film “Quantum of Solace” have been released featuring a look at Daniel Craig as secret agent 007.
In the new movie, forensic intelligence links an Mi6 traitor to a bank account in Haiti where a case of mistaken identity introduces Bond to the beautiful but feisty Camille (Olga Kurylenko), a woman who has her own vendetta. Camille leads Bond straight to Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), a ruthless business man and major force within the mysterious organization.
On a mission that leads him to Austria, Italy and South America, Bond discovers that Greene, conspiring to take total control of one of the world’s most important natural resources, is forging a deal with the exiled General Medrano (Joaquin Cosio). Using his associates in the organization, and manipulating his powerful contacts within the CIA and the British government, Greene promises to overthrow the existing regime in a Latin American country, giving the General control of the country in exchange for a seemingly barren piece of land.

Beyonce instead Amy Winehouse for Bond Theme?
I was really like the idea that Amy Winehouse do the song for next James Bond movie ‘Quantum of Solace‘.
After few months of speculation, possibility that Amy Winehouse sing for Bond is minimal.
We probably won’t hear her great voice in this movie.
As LatinoReviews reports, Beyonce perhaps will get the job to record Bond theme song.
Of course we will wait for official information.
Leonardo DiCaprio as Ian Fleming - the James Bond creator
Leonardo DiCaprio may star as Ian Fleming in a biopic of the James Bond creator.
The Los Angeles Times reports that the actor’s production company Appian Way recently jumped on board to produce the film, based on the script Fleming by Damian Stevenson.
Producer Andrew Lazar said a film about the life of Fleming had the potential to be “fascinating”.
“It’s going to be very different from the Bond films,” Lazar commented. “There are a lot of different ways to crack biopics, but we’re not trying to emulate a Bond movie… The idea that this guy’s life informed the James Bond character is pretty fascinating.”
Stevenson, whom DiCaprio will replace with a new writer, researched the script by looking through out-of-print biographies at the University of Oxford’s Bodleian Library.
“It’s the real James Bond,” Stevenson said. “In England, Ian Fleming’s exploits are much better known. Talking to people out here [in the US], no one had any idea that M was based on a real person, Miss Moneypenny was based on a real person.”
The story begins on the eve of Fleming’s wedding in 1952 - before his first Bond novel Casino Royale was published - then flashes back to his days as a Reuters journalist and Naval Intelligence Commander.
