New Skyfall production photos and a videoblog have been released, giving fans an inside glimpse into the happenings on set of the latest James Bond movie.

The new production stills portray, as usual, an armed and dangerous Bond, played by Daniel Craig. We also get a hint of what Naomi Harris’ character, Eve, looks like in action. Judi Dench’s M appears to be carrying out her normal duties, keeping tabs on the ongoing secret missions.

Oscar-winning production designer Dennis Gassner also reveals some details into the look and feel of Skyfall. In the newly released video blog, he gives us a brief look at how he builds a massive underground station on the 007 Stage.

Unfortunately for Bond movie fans, there is still some ways to go until we see the completed project. Skyfall is currently filming in Instanbul, Turkey. The Sam Mendes directed film is expected to hit theaters in the later part of next year.

Until then, the production photos and video on the following pages should hold you down for a little while.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
