Doesn't look like there'll be a Bond on Set this year, which is disappointing. There is this though.

 

Blood, Sweat and Bond: Behind the Scenes of Spectre (Curated by Rankin) (James Bond) - 27 Oct 2015

 

In the run-up to the latest James Bond film, SPECTRE, renowned photographer Rankin takes us from script to screen in Blood, Sweat and Bond: Behind the Scenes of SPECTRE, curating an ensemble of exclusive photography and cast and crew interviews. Also features contributions from celebrity photographers including Mary McCartney, Eliott Erwitt and Brigitte Lecombe.

This is the first published book to preview the latest Bond film's cast, crew and locations. Directed by Academy Award-winner Sam Mendes, SPECTRE features the return of Daniel Craig as legendary British secret agent James Bond.

 

 

No cover artwork as of yet, but i'm intrigued none the less.

Shame that there isn't a Bond On Set this year. Interested to see how this one turns out.

As long as I have a coffee table book, I'll be pleased. This sounds very interesting.

Bummer if true. Looks like the "Blood, Sweat, and Bond" book may act as an acceptable substitute, however. With Rankin curating it and compiling numerous photos from several photographers, it seems that either Greg Williams was just unable to commit the time and effort, or they were looking for something a little more expansive.

Pre-ordered it! Done. Thanks!

...

what? It was the bloody trailer, got me pumped up. Exhilarated as I was with the Bond on Set books, this sounds really good. And if the Williams book becomes a reality, I´ll sure get one as well. Bond mania rules!

Yeah - I don't think there's going to be a separate 'Bond on Set' book. This will likely be it. It sounds like the same thing, though. And at 200 pages it should contain a lot of content.

From what I can tell, it's photos and next to no text, is that what you guys are picking up too? Not a making of in any way, but a photo book by someone other than Greg Williams, right?

Excellent! Looking forward to adding this to my collection. :)
 
 
EDIT: Just looked on Amazon and found a 600+ page 'SPECTRE' edition of 'The James Bond Archive' is available to pre-order. Price? £34.
 
Yes. £34 when we all forked out over £100 for the original.

Not only didn't have it, I missed its existence completely and I have 50+ Bond books on the shelf. Thanks for the heads up.

Got it today. Beautifull book and not that different from the Bond on Set books from the last Bond movies.

I had not much time to realy look in it, because I had to catch a particular film (if you know what I mean).

What's also a fantastic book is "Some Kind of Hero", which I recieved last wednesday. Not much photo's, just two photo sections, but...It has more than 700 (!!) pages of Bond info & stuff. This is not written by normal fans or Bond specialists, but fanatics! Awesome!
