He’s back. Daniel Craig reprises the role of 007 in the newest teaser for Spectre, the follow up to immensely popular Skyfall. The director of Skyfall, Sam Mendes, is returning, however, he was unable to bring back cinematographer Roger Deakins, who I felt elevated Skyfall from its fairly generic plot. But as far as teasers go, this is almost pitch perfect. They give you just enough information to get you interested and avoid presenting any of the bigger set pieces. While I’m certainly not the biggest fan of Daniel Craig’s James Bond, the fact that Christoph Waltz is the villain of Spectre already guarantees my ticket purchase.
The official synopsis (h/t: SlashFilm)
In SPECTRE, a cryptic message from Bond’s past sends him on a trail to uncover a sinister organization. While M battles political forces to keep the secret service alive, Bond peels back the layers of deceit to reveal the terrible truth behind SPECTRE. Sam Mendes returns to direct SPECTRE, with Daniel Craig reprising his role as 007 for the fourth time.SPECTRE is produced by Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, from a script by John Logan and Neal Purvis & Robert Wade.
