New video released online featuring scenes from `Quantum of Solace`

08-Feb-2008 • Quantum Of Solace

Fresh video of the 22nd James Bond film has surfaced via AOL Moviefone, on the back of the teaser poster for "Quantum of Solace" being unveiled.

The almost 3 minute long video includes B-roll scenes and gives a sneak peak at some aspects of the movie (Bond with M, and M with Tanner in MI6, Felix Leiter, and Agent Fields), as well as interviews with Daniel Craig, Marc Forster Michael G. Wilson.

Speaking about the daunting task of bettering the record-breaking "Casino Royale", director Marc Forster said, "What I loved about the last Bond was that it was Daniel Craig's reinvention of the character. People now have huge expectations with this being a follow up to Casino Royale. It is scary, you know? It's a hard thing to do".

Three weeks in to filming, Daniel Craig talked about how things were shaping up, "It's falling into place, you know, it's a big piece of machinery to get going and we've got to make this one better. We've got expectation against us now. There's a lot more work to do on this one, or it seems that way. Maybe I've just got selective memory about the last one because it seemed like a walk in the park compared to this one now. We've shot a few of the dialogue sequences which is kind of unusual, but it was nice. It was nice to start with some meaty dialogue sequences."

Producer Michael G. Wilson reinforced comments made at the press conference that this film will feature more action that the previous uting, "In the last film, Daniel was amazing in the action work and this film has more than doubled it. There's a lot of different action sequences. He's had to do a lot more extensive training than he did in the last film".

Craig rounded off the interviews, "We're two or three weeks in and, you know, we've barely started yet. We've barely scratched the surface. I’m loving it, I really am. Who wouldn't?"

As revealed earlier this week, Bond will be tracking down a character named Mr Slate, who is mentioned in one of the newly released scenes.

Already foreshadowed by the press conference, the issue of trust is raised in dialogue with M.

Snippets from the B-roll show a fight sequence, Craig undergoing stunt training, and practice sessions for the power boat and stunt driving scenes.

Thanks to `Jack Wade` for the alert.
