First shot of Daniel Craig in new 007 film ‘Skyfall’ released


If you’ve been eagerly anticipating getting your first look at Daniel Craig as James Bond in Skyfall, your wait is now over–unless of course you were hoping for a trailer, in which case I suppose you’ll just be disappointed.

After a whole bunch of teasing on the movie’s official Twitter account with ambiguous set photos, the first official photo of Daniel Craig reprising his role as James Bond in the 23rd installment of the 007 film franchise, Skyfall, has finally surfaced.

The photo, which you can see for yourself directly above, shows Craig clutching a pistol and staring off at something–or someone. The team behind the film wasn’t willing to say just what is going on in the still, only that this particular shot is set in Shanghai.

At this point, very little is known about Skyfall. A very brief and very vague synopsis was recently released for the film, which says that James Bond will be tasked with defending MI6 from some threat or another, and that his loyalty to M (Judi Dench) will be tested. The villain will be played by Javier Bardem, along with Albert Finney and Ralph Fiennes.

Skyfall is set to release in the UK on October 26, followed by a North America release on November 9.
