2012 is going to be a big year at the movies, including the long awaited return of James Bond to the big screen. Daniel Craig is returning as the Agent 007 in Skyfall, scheduled for release in early November.
As production continues, some plot details from Skyfall are starting to emerge. Perhaps one of the most intriguing Skyfall tidbits is info that this is the last film with Judi Dench as M. Ralph Fiennes is in Skyfall as a government leader and word is his character will replace M as Bond’s trusted superior. Why the regime change? Is M simply retiring, or is M leaving due to some past misdeeds catching up to her and Bond no longer having the faith in her he once did? Also cast in Skyfall are Naomie Harris as Bond’s latest love interest, always a plumb Hollywood role.
