Quantum Of Solace
The 22nd James Bond film will be titled Quantum Of Solace.
Although the Fleming title seems to have befuddled the general public
it has been familiar to Bond fans for many years and a popular
suggestion for future titles. Its selection probably wasn't the biggest
suprise ever. Despite several other rumours Quantum Of Solace and
Risico (two excellent titles in our opinion) always looked like good
bets.
According to the blurb;
QUANTUM OF SOLACE continues the high octane adventures of James Bond (DANIEL CRAIG) in CASINO ROYALE.
Betrayed by Vesper, the woman
he loved, 007 fights the urge to make his latest mission personal.
Pursuing his determination to uncover the truth, Bond and M (JUDI
DENCH) interrogate Mr White (JESPER CHRISTENSEN) who reveals the
organisation which blackmailed Vesper is far more complex and dangerous
than anyone had imagined.
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 organisation.
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 organisation, 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.
In a minefield of treachery,
murder and deceit, Bond allies with old friends in a battle to uncover
the truth. As he gets closer to finding the man responsible for the
betrayal of Vesper, 007 must keep one step ahead of the CIA, the
terrorists and even M, to unravel Greene's sinister plan and stop his
organisation.
Produced by Michael G. Wilson
and Barbara Broccoli (Eon Productions), QUANTUM OF SOLACE will be
released on the 7th of November 2008 and will be directed by Marc
Forster. The cast includes Daniel Craig, Mathieu Amalric (Maurice
Green), Anatole Taubman and Joaquin Cosío (General Medrano).
Olga Kurylenko (Camille) and Gemma Arterton (MI6 Agent Fields) will
play Bond Girls. Dame Judi Dench (M), Jeffrey Wright (Felix Leiter) and
Giancarlo Giannini (Mathis).
