    SAM SMITH TO SING TITLE SONG TO "SPECTRE"

    CULVER CITY, Calif., September 8, 2015 - Albert R. Broccoli's EON Productions, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, and Sony Pictures Entertainment today confirmed that Sam Smith has recorded "Writing's On The Wall," the theme song to SPECTRE, the 24th James Bond adventure. SPECTRE will be released in the UK on October 26 and in the US on November 6. The song, released by Capitol Records, will debut and be available to purchase and stream on September 25.

    Multi-platinum selling artist Sam Smith has co-written the title song, "Writing's On The Wall," with fellow GRAMMY® Award winner Jimmy Napes. It is the first James Bond theme song recorded by a British male solo artist since 1965. Smith's debut album In The Lonely Hour launched at No. 1 in the UK and bowed in at No. 2 in the US, and has since earned five No.1 UK singles, four GRAMMY® Awards, three Brit Awards, six MOBO Awards, Q and AMA Awards.

    Commenting on the announcement, Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, the producers of SPECTRE, said, "Sam and Jimmy have written the most inspirational song for SPECTRE and with Sam's extraordinary vocal performance, 'Writing's On The Wall' will surely be considered one of the greatest Bond songs of all time."

    Smith said: "This is one of the highlights of my career. I am honoured to finally announce that I will be singing the next Bond theme song. I am so excited to be a part of this iconic British legacy and join an incredible line up of some of my biggest musical inspirations. I hope you all enjoy the song as much as I enjoyed making it."

    The 23 previous James Bond theme songs make up some of the most memorable movie music of all time. The previous Bond theme song, "Skyfall," was performed by Adele, and was honored with the Academy Award® and Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song, the Brit Award for British Single of the Year, and the Grammy Award for Best Song Written for Visual Media.
    ABOUT "SPECTRE"

    A cryptic message from the past sends James Bond (Daniel Craig) on a rogue mission to Mexico City and eventually Rome, where he meets Lucia Sciarra (Monica Bellucci), the beautiful and forbidden widow of an infamous criminal. Bond infiltrates a secret meeting and uncovers the existence of the sinister organisation known as SPECTRE.

    Meanwhile back in London, Max Denbigh (Andrew Scott), the new head of the Centre for National Security, questions Bond's actions and challenges the relevance of MI6, led by M (Ralph Fiennes). Bond covertly enlists Moneypenny (Naomie Harris) and Q (Ben Whishaw) to help him seek out Madeleine Swann (Léa Seydoux), the daughter of his old nemesis Mr White (Jesper Christensen), who may hold the clue to untangling the web of SPECTRE. As the daughter of an assassin, she understands Bond in a way most others cannot.

    As Bond ventures towards the heart of SPECTRE, he learns of a chilling connection between himself and the enemy he seeks, played by Christoph Waltz.

    Sam Mendes returns to direct SPECTRE, with Daniel Craig reprising his role as 007 for the fourth time. SPECTRE is produced by Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli. The screenplay is by John Logan and Neal Purvis & Robert Wade and Jez Butterworth, with a story by John Logan and Neal Purvis & Robert Wade.

    SPECTRE is set for release in the UK on October 26, 2015, and in the US on November 6, 2015.

  1. So....I'm going with my theory that the Bond franchise FINALLY is ready to tie everything together with revealing that "James Bond" is not a person but a secret identity, an identity that is studied by each new potential "Bond".


    No way that SPECTRE board member would've talked so familiar to him otherwise (plus it opens up a way to bring back old faces without breaking canon)

  2. This would be a fascinating idea.

    Would be tremendous if we could see Sean Connery sharing the screen with Craig.

  3. Looks pretty cool. Can't wait to see all the Bond villains. Always nice to hear Christoph Waltz's voice.

    ReplyDelete
  4. I think you could be right! That was my thought, too.

    ReplyDelete
  5. The "code name" is not true.......He is James Bond not some alias

    ReplyDelete
  6. Well, I’ll check it out as every other Bond movie, but to be honest i lost my interest in the franchise when Craig became James Bond..

    ReplyDelete
  7. Nope. Look at the paper Bond is holding and pause it. Oberhauser was Bond's temporary legal guardian when he was 12.

    Also Spectre could easily know who he is with the events of 21-23.

    ReplyDelete
  8. I think Skyfall goes against that theory, considering Bonds' parents' headstones said 'Bond'. I think the Sony leaks imply a personal history between Bond and Christoph Waltz's character, that they were in foster care together.

    ReplyDelete
  9. It looks good, can't wait to see the real trailer.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Cinematography looks great. It's tough act to follow Roger Deakins but they seem to have pulled it off.

    ReplyDelete
  11. That's what I thought after 30 secs in, then I remembered that Skyfall confirms his name, and that the plot of these movies are never very cerebral.

    ReplyDelete
  12. yeah, there's a shot of Q in this latest trailer. I love the new Q, he is my favorite new-old character from Skyfall

    ReplyDelete
  13. I have not really hoped on the Daniel-Craig-Bond train, and I think I should eventually get on that...

    ReplyDelete
  14. Yay! First Glimpse of Andrew Scott :)

    ReplyDelete
  15. The trailer looks really good, not sure how I feel about Spectre and possibly Blofeld being the authors of every pain in Bond's life or how personal this movie will be. At some point, they'll need to step back and make it a general Bond movie- Quantum was personal and a direct sequel to Casino Royale, Skyfall was personal for M and we got a bit of Bond's backstory, now this. I like it, but at some point it'll have to stop being personal and start being more general mission like.

    ReplyDelete
  16. That sounds dope.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Yay Q!!!
    All in all I'm pretty happy with the new casting additions, I liked Bautista well enough in Guardians of the Galaxy and of course Waltz and Scott are very good at being bad so that in itself will be awesome. Monica Bellucci is quite charismatic as well, the only one I'm not a fan of is Léa Seydoux, I hope she's not too present.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Looks good. Waltz always makes a great villain.

    ReplyDelete
  19. IMO they should go with a new style after Craig departs.
    Every Bond had his own style of movies:


    Connery, the classic 60s gentleman agent that was too suave to survive
    Moore, funny and witty dialogue, at some point rather slapstick-y
    Dalton, the dark and broody badass with no sense for humor
    Brosnan, a mix of Connery and Moore, whacky at times
    Craig, dark and violent. The tone keeps itself realistic


    the next one should embrace some comedic elements and go down the whacky area at times. JETPACK!
