BOND in
MEXICO
With spectacular mid-air gunfights
and aerial views over the wild
desert landscapes and sparkling Sea
of Cortés, Baja California was the
other Latin American setting for the
film. Most of the scenes were
allegedly shot (from the air) around
the small costal town called San
Felipe, located around 2 hours from
Mexicali, with sweeping views of the
surrounding sierras and Sea of
Cortés .

vehicles stuck in the Baja Desert
but we know this is not new... Just

Bond 22 is now officially Quantum
of Solace, the film's producers
announced 24 February 2008.
The movie - whose title is taken
from a short story in Ian Fleming's
1960 For Your Eyes Only - has
already begun shooting at Pine wood
and in San Felipe, Baja, California,
Mexico, most of the aerial work will
be done around San Felipe and will
later go on to 7 other locations in
Austria, Italy and Panama among
others. It's Daniel Craig's second
outing as 007, following the
laudable Casino Royale.
He's will be joined by old hand Judi
Dench as M, plus newbie's Olga
Kurylenko and Gemma Arterton as Bond
girls, playing the "mysterious"
Camille and MI6 Agent Fields,
respectively. Also on board is
Mathieu Amarilic, who'll take the
role of villain Dominic Greene.
As said previously, Quantum of
Solace will follow on from
Casino Royale, with 007 "picking
up the pieces after being
double-crossed by Treasury agent
Vesper Lynd".
The title
is taken from one of a collection of
short stories published by 007
creator Ian Fleming in 1960. The new
film, which will see Daniel Craig
reprise his role as the iconic
British agent, will also feature
Ukrainian actress Olga Kurylenko.
Shooting will start in San Felipe
January 26, 2008 in San Felipe,
Baja, Mexico.
Things got under way today Jan.
25, 2008 about 10:30am as all 3
planes took off one behind the
other the Aerostar was first off
then the Marchetti
Follow by the DC-3 what a breath
taking site with mountains in
the background and some white
clouds hanging out it was a nice
site for sure. It was a
rap about 4:30pm day one.
The normal day off Sunday came
at just the right time as is was
not possible to shoot with all
the rain we had Sunday, so it
was just great and the workers
did not miss a beat.
Details of Daniel Craig's second
outing as 007 were revealed at
the production's first press
conference, held today (Thursday
24th January 2008) at Pinewood
Studios in the south of England.
"Quantum of Solace" sees 007 out
for revenge on a mission that
takes him to Austria, Italy and
South America. Filming for the
latter location will take place
in Panama and 7 other places
including the desert near
San Felipe, Baja California,
Mexico.
Most people think
this will be a
Direct Sequel to
Casino Royale
