Mansion Explodes On Set Of Skyfall

The latest Bond movie, Skyfall, gets underway with pyrotechs setting a replica mansion a blaze.

Last night on the set of the upcoming 007 film,  Bond’s countryside lodge was destroyed in a explosion in true action movie fashion. Production spent months building a mansion worthy of James Bond’s very flamboyant taste only for it all to go up in smoke, intentionally.

The Mansion was first seen earlier this month when Daniel Craig, who plays Bond, was photographed on the set. He was captured walking in and around the replica house.

Oscar winner Javier Bardem, who plays the main villain, was also photographed on set dressed up as a Metropolitan police officer wearing in a hideous blond wig.

In this chapter of the 007 franchise, Bond’s loyalty to M is tested when her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost.

Aside from Craig and Bardem, the movie stars  Judi Dench, Naomie Harris, Berenice Marlohe, Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney, Ben Whishaw, Helen McCrory and Ola Rapace.  Sam Mendes sits in the director’s chair.

Skyfall hits theaters on November 9, 2012
