New Bond Movie, “Quantum of Solace” Details Emerge

The actors in the latest ‘Bond’ movie, Quantum of Solace are talking to the press–a lot about their roles in the film. But are they giving too much away too soon?

Warning: there are spoilers!

Speaking to BBC Newsround, Gemma Arterton, who plays an MI6 agent named Fields, is tasked with trying to “keep Bond under control” in Bolivia, but for her trouble the character “sort of comes to a sticky end.” Thanks, Gemma.

Meanwhile, the film’s main villain, Mathieu Amalric says that he is going to get into physical training for a big fight scene with Bond that will come at the end the picture. Is Bond in the habit of engaging in fisticuffs with his main adversaries? Not really. Amalric adds that the film is “very dark”.

Detroit News is also running an article on the set design for the film, and informs us that a massive MI6 set — “a two-story suite of steel-gray furniture and frosted glass offices” — will be featured this time around.

Based on the flurry of details that have emerged in the last week, I already think I have a good handle on exactly what will happen in this film, structure-wise, and that’s too much info.

Quantum of Solace will be released in theaters November 7, 2008.
