Aston Martin DBS Unveiled
5th May 2006
Aston
Martin have officially unveiled the new DBS model which James
Bond will be driving in the forthcoming film "Casino Royale".
Design Director, Marek Reichman, said: “This car encapsulates
a link between our elegant DB9 road car and the powerful DBR9
race car. It signals an evolutionary development of Aston Martin’s
world renowned style and elegance. While hinting at our future
design direction, the DBS also has very clear links with our heritage
– it is instantly recognisable as an Aston Martin.”
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Dr Ulrich Bez added: “The
DBS continues our proud and lengthy association with James Bond.
“The DBS is not of the understated elegance of a DB9, nor
the youthful agility of the V8 Vantage. It is explosive power
in a black tie and has its own unique character which will equal
that of James Bond.”
Produced by Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli (Eon
Productions) and directed by Martin Campbell, CASINO ROYALE is
scheduled for release November 17, 2006. Principal photography
started on January 30th 2006, with locations in the UK, Czech
Republic (Prague), Italy, and the Bahamas. It will be British
actor Daniel Craig’s first outing as James Bond. He is the
sixth actor to play the 007 role in the franchise.
The film also stars Judi Dench, Eva Green, Mads Mikkelsen, Jeffrey
Wright, Giancarlo Giannini, Caterina Murino, Simon Abkarian, Tobias
Menzies, Ivana Milicevic, Clemens Schik, Ludger Pistor, Claudio
Santamaria and Isaach de Bankole.
