Having finally been able to bury Quantum of Solace in the dark recesses of my mind, I can now look forward to James Bond’s next outing, Skyfall. A few official, and some not so official, images have made their way onto the net in recent weeks; so we thought we’d bring you the pick of the bunch, including Bond (Daniel Craig) in full flight and chief bad guy, Silva (Javier Bardem), in disguise.

In Skyfall, “Bond’s loyalty to M (Judi Dench) is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost.” Directed by Sam Mendes (American Beauty), the film also stars Ralph Fiennes (Harry Potter series), Helen McCrory (Hugo), Naomie Harris (28 Days Later), Ben Whishaw (Layer Cake), Albert Finney (The Bourne Ultimatum) and Berenice Marlohe.

Skyfall hits New Zealand screens on November 22nd.

Here are the images:

Suits you, Sir:

Are you excited for the new Bond flick? Is Bardem a good choice as villain?
