This latest SPECTRE vlog focuses on filming the opening sequence set during the Day of the Dead festival in Mexico City.
“I wanted the audience to be dropped right into the middle of a very, very specific, very heady, rich environment. It’s the Day of the Dead, everywhere you look there’s colour and detail and life. We’ve built floats and maquettes, the costumes are extraordinary and the craftsmanship is amazing,” said Sam Mendes, the film’s director.
The film sees Daniel Craig return as James Bond 007 alongside Naomi Harris as Moneypenny, Ralph Fiennes as M, Rory Kinnear as Tanner and Ben Whishaw as Q.
They’ll be joined by Léa Seydoux, Dave Bautista, Monica Bellucci, Andrew Scott and Christoph Waltz who will take on an unannounced role.
Synopsis:
A cryptic message from Bond’s past sends him on a trail to uncover a sinister organisation. While M battles political forces to keep the secret service alive, Bond peels back the layers of deceit to reveal the terrible truth behind SPECTRE.
Written by John Logan and Neal Purvis & Robert Wade, Spectre is set for global release on November 6, 2015.
