SPECTRE Teaser Trailer Debuts
The teaser trailer for the 24th official James Bond film Spectre was released yesterday, giving Bond fans their first major look at the upcoming film.
The one minute, forty second teaser trailer opens with an exterior shot of MI6 headquarters, still damaged from an explosion in the previous film, Skyfall. M's assistant, Eve Moneypenny (Naomie Harris), goes to visit Bond (Daniel Craig) in his apartment flat with something rather intriguing.
"Forensics finally released this," Moneypenny begins, handing over a small wooden case. Bond asks what's in the case, which Moneypenny replies, "Personal effects they recovered from Skyfall."
Still in the process of moving in, Bond sits down on his couch and opens the case, removing an old Order of Temporary Guardianship along with a scorched photo of young Bond with his deceased parents. "You've got a secret," says Moneypenny in a voiceover. "Something you can't tell anyone...because you don't trust anyone."
From there, we're off to the Austian Alps, where Bond tracks down Mr. White (Jesper Christensen), last seen in the film Quantum of Solace and now a fugitive from MI6. "I always knew death would wear a familar face," says White in a voiceover, "but not yours."
We then see Bond attending a funeral service, apparently for the husband of Monica Bellucci's character, Lucia Sciarra, who was an assassin that Bond killed.
"I was at a meeting recently and your name came up," remarks Bond in a voiceover. "I'm flattered London is still talking about me," replies White.
"It wasn't MI6." Bond sets a ring down on the chessboard next to White, bearing the familiar octopus symbol of the sinister organization SPECTRE.
White picks up the ring, looks at it, then tells Bond, "You're a kite dancing in a hurricane, Mr. Bond."
Finally, we see Bond attending a very important gathering, presumably members of SPECTRE, with Christoph Waltz's character Franz Oberhauser seated down below. "Welcome, James," begins Oberhauser in a voiceover. "It's been a long time...and finally, here we are..."
Spectre arrives in US theaters on November 6, 2015. In the meantime, you can watch the teaser trailer below about twenty times thank to Sony Pictures' official YouTube account...
I like how the trailer presents an atmosphere of intensity; something from Bond's past is about to become crucial, and if shadowy Christoph Waltz isn't involved, I'll eat my hat.
ReplyDeleteMy guess is the death of Bond's parents was an assassination and Oberhauser was the assassin.
