Skyfall poster emerges

Bond goes retro

Skyfall poster emerges
16 May 2012

It's pretty hard to keep up with all the exciting posters/trailers/images/sounds currently trickling through from all the films released in the second half of this year.

With Prometheus and The Dark Knight Rises keeping our summer selves in a constant state of unbearable giddiness, this first poster from James Bond's 23rd outing has us literally willing the autumn to hurry up and arrive already.

It's a classic image which gives away very little but has us excited nonetheless. What we know about the plot suggests that Dench's M will take a major focus as her past comes back to haunt her. It'll also be the first Bond film to show on IMAX screens which suggests the action will be even bigger than ever.

Daniel Craig is returning as Bond with support from Judi Dench, Javier Bardem, Ralph Fiennes and Naomie Harris, while American Beauty director Sam Mendes is taking over directing duties.

You can find out what happened when we infiltrated the Skyfall set earlier this year right here.

What do you think of the new poster? Excited?

Skyfall is released on October 26th
