'Skyfall' Reveals New Diggable Clip

A new Skyfall clip has surfaced around the net featuring the famous secret agent doing what he does best: remaining super cool under pressure.

And we’re not just talking about the pressure created by the bulldozer showcased in the clip. And we’re not just talking about the cool, ultra-expensive suit worn by Daniel Craig. We’re talking about James Bond digging into a steel train with a bulldozer without ruffling his stylish, perfectly pressed suit or scuffing his Oxfords.

The new clip comes in light of the final countdown to Skyfall’s release in both the UK and the US. For those lucky enough to live across the Atlantic, Skyfall will be hitting British theatres October 26. It will not be until November 9 that Sam Mendes’ contribution to the Bond franchise will be available to a United States audience. Until then, we’ll at least have the trailer and Adele song to get by on.

To be sure, there are plenty of other reasons to be excited. Bond fans will get to see Ben Whishaw’s take on Q as well as veterans Ralph Fiennes, Javier Bardem and Judi Dench in supporting roles. Oh, and did we mention the latest Bond girl? My apologies, bond girls.

In any case, be sure to check back for more updates. A month is quite a long time to release more and more Skyfall publicity. Enjoy the clip below!

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.
