An interesting addition to the cast of Skyfall:

This actor plays the role of a 'Q Branch Analist' and he's Asian.

Interesting. I might be reading too much into this, but any chance the MI6 Explosion makes him exit his car and run? Or will he be playing 2 different people.

He played two different roles in two different scenes, I'd say. I've heard of other actors who have been called twice to play a role in Skyfall .

I think you might be reading a bit too much into it. These guys are probably only going to be glorified extras. They're hardly "roles", so to speak.

Might very well have been the "Shanghai office building" again. They previous filmed exteriors at Exchange House, near Liverpool Street station.

Did any of you manage to get some pictures?

Apologies. Couldn't make it down today. If they were filming above ground, i.e. not in the underground, I expect we'll get some paparazzi photos again.

I could echo what other's have said and say that they seem to be filming an awfully lot in London. Will be interesting to see how that plays out, I mean Bond doesn't necessarily have to travel to exotic countries all the time, but it is nice.

Going back to Luigi's nice detective work, if you look at 'Skyfall' on the CastingCallPro site, you can see other roles that are being played by the members.

Speculate the scenes as you will...I thought it made a nice read in hining at what we could see on-screen...!


They also list the film as 100 minutes...more fuel for the fire...?



PS: Pollyanna Hale for next Bond girl anyone?

Ignore anything about the film's length. They have no idea. It's not even edited yet.

Sites like Casting Pro just whack up the basic feature film length - 90 mins - which is the industry basic rule of thumb,
meaning a feature film has to be 90 mins of length to qualify as a theatrical feature film; (which is far from the reality, but a broad rule of international film distributors and international film sales companies.)

Unverifiable tweet, naturally, but Daniel Craig was reportedly "filming underwater" at Pinewood today.
