Latest 007 Movie Title Revealed

James Bond's next big spy feature film has been revealed.

'Quantum of Solace' is the title of the new movie, the 22nd in the long-running franchise.

It comes from a short story in Bond creator Ian Fleming's collection 'For Your Eyes Only'.

Daniel Craig, who made his debut as 007 in Casino Royale in 2006, will return in the lead role.

He will be joined by Dame Judi Dench, reprising her role as M for the sixth time, while Ukrainian model and actress Olga Kurylenko will play Bond girl Camille and 21-year-old British actress Gemma Arteton, who starred in the recent St Trinian's movie, will appear as MI6 agent Fields.

'Quantum of Solace' has been filming at Pinewood Studios in west London since November. Marc Foster ('Finding Neverland', 'The Kite Runner', 'Monster's Ball') is directing and the movie is due for release on November 7.
