Details of Bond 24's action-packed shoot in Rome emerge

The James Bond 007 production has long been slated to shoot in the Italian capital, but details about the city's involvement and the timeframe for the shoot have been scant, until now.

According to local reports, Rome is expecting the arrival of Bond and his ever-reliable second unit stunts crew on 19th February 2015, and the crew will shoot through 'til 12th March.

MI6 has understood for some time that roads would be closed and that the location would be the scene of a car chase. Reports now indicate that it will involve a Fiat 500 in a chase along the Corso Vittorio Emanuele and Lungo Tevere. The chase is rumoured to end with one of the cars in the drink.
