Bond 22 title could be Quantum Of Solace?

24-Jan-2008 • Quantum Of Solace

Eagle-eyed fans have spotted that internet domain names for "Quantum Of Solace" have been recently registered by Sony Pictures.

It could be a sign that the title of the 22nd James Bond film has been chosen. The title comes from a Ian Fleming short-story published in the collection "For Your Eyes Only" first released in 1960.

The title has often been cited in Bond 22 rumours, and films beforehand, along with other as-yet unused Fleming titles such as "The Property Of A Lady".

According to records, Sony Pictures registered quantumofsolace.com on January 22nd 2008 - just a day before today's press conference was announced. It may all be a jape to throw fans off the scent though, as Sony also registered quantumofsolacemovie.com back in September last year.

Both website addresses currently redirect to the Sony Pictures homepage.

It has not been stated whether or not the official title of the 22nd James Bond film will be announced at the press conference.



Produced by Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli (Eon Productions), BOND 22 (title to be announced) is scheduled for release November 7th 2008 and will be directed by Marc Forster.

Principal photography started on January 2nd 2008 at Pinewood Studios and around the UK, and foreign locations including Italy, Panama, Austria and Bolivia. Paul Haggis completed the script based on a first draft screenplay developed by regular scribes Neal Purvis & Robert Wade.

The story will be a direct continuation of the events of Casino Royale. 007 will face off against villains 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) will reprise their roles as Bond's allies.

It is British actor Daniel Craig’s second outing as James Bond, following his debut film Casino Royale released November 16th 2006.

Thanks to `Gustav Graves` for the alert.
