    James Bond ready for Sæbø in Sunnmøre:
    Sæbø, a small village in Sunnmøre is preparing for Bond 25.

    images?imageId=10630257&x=0&y=0&cropw=100&croph=100&width=970&height=729.jpg


    Several vans marked Pinewood and Movie Makers have entered the small village Sæbø in Sunnmøre.

    - It’s an extreme secrecy. Nobody from the production want to confirm this is for James Bond, tells TV2 anchor Arill Riise, who’s visiting his home village.


    TV2 however have several independent sources confirming they've been hired to deliver services for the Bond shooting the upcoming days.

    TV2 have got confirmation that the production has received permission to close off Sæbø centre Tuesday and Wednesday. TV2 have been informed that it's a big production team that's now coming to Sæbø.

    - The crew counts 120 people, a source tells.

    More and more Norway. Great. I am biased, of course.

    Bring it on! They should make the most out of those incentives.

    Glad that Norway will be in the film more than briefly. Matera must be the last planned filming location unless there’s more we haven’t heard of.

    Fukunaga said that Matera is where they'd be "finishing up." That said, I wouldn't be surprised if they head back to the UK after that.

    Did we know that those photos of Craig were taken at Pinewood?
    https://www.mi6-hq.com/news/daniel-craig-spotted-at-pinewood-studios-ahead-of-ankle-surgery-190525
    So, he has presumably been filming up to now, followed by a surgery and two weeks of recovery.

    I love the fact that nothing much is being reported. Keeps everyone guessing.

    Could be. That goatee seems like a bit of a bold character choice, if he has been.

    It's close to Romsdalen, where shooting has been reported to begin 5th June.

    Other than the producers. Who is the longest serving crew member still working on the Bond movies today?

    As far as I can tell, that would be the legendary Chris Corbould. Having worked on nearly
    all the Bond films since TSWLM in 1977.
    Next nearest as far as I know is casting director, Debbie McWilliams, who's been with the series since 1981's FYEO.

    @fjdinardo asked who was the longest serving crew member still working on the Bond movies though.

    Does anyone know where this picture of Craig is taken? A couple of news sources write that Craig is in Sæbø, but they only quote the TV2 article, and TV2 have probably found this picture of Craig from a different source.

    Do we 'know' what kind of scenes they gonna shoot in Romsdalen or is it still a guessing game?

    Looking at the map, the distance between Romsdalen to Sæbø is 192 km (three hours drive) so it doesn't make any sense. The only logic I can come up with it would be two separate locations - and maybe an additional third one, I'm thinking of the Atlantic Ocean Road (Atlanterhavsveien) which way higher up.

    Look at the map.

    Is anyone excited by the locations we're going to get in this film?
    Jamaica and Norway are totally different in look, along with the seaplane action and potential car chase we look like we're getting in Norway, Bond 25 is shaping up to be a Bond film to look forward too. Instead of looking for negatives, I prefer to look for the positives in our favourite series.

    The Jamaican, Norwegian and Italian locations all look good.

    A chopper (filming) and a stunt driver is the latest I've heard. I don't think we will be getting two car chases. My guess is that Romsdalen will only feature as a point A to B scene. An action setpiece takes a lot more time to plan and set up.

    This plateau in Romsdalen has been expected to come crashing down anytime soon for quite some time now.

    https://goo.gl/maps/d3dV5ELxjCMw35iq8

    Sæbø, Romsdalen (Rauma) and Atlanterhavsveien might feature as separate locations. My guess is that they will "cheat" a bit, making us believe that the locations are closer to each other – for example a car chase (rally driver Petter Solberg has confirmed he's been contacted by the production)/action sequence starting in the mountainous terrain of the first locations, ending with a climax at Atlanterhavsveien.

    I prefer it if they don't, but this happens in films all the time.

    Actually you took the words right out my mouth. I was thinking the same, maybe some form of chase or high speed drama using those locations in the same sequence.

    The advantage with this, is that you'll get a very picturesque sequence with varied backdrops. But again, those locations might feature as different sequences/scenes.

    What I'm still wondering, is why Bond travels to Norway. What kind of events in the story leads him to travel here?

    The scientist (played by Dencik) is scandinavian. Norway would be a good place for a secret factory, lair or something. We also know there a lot of data centers placed in Norway, because they need to cool down quickly. In fact the world's largest data center is being build in Norway, the Kolos Facility:

    This talk of the rally driver, maybe we are going to get the car chase so many of us were expecting in SPECTRE when they announced the sequence during filming.

    By that I mean, visceral and exciting full of danger, @peter knows what I'm talking about.

    Can't say any of the news even DC's injury is dulling my enthusiasm for Bond 25.

    It hasn't been confirmed yet that he's the scientist, right? I know he'll likely play the scientist, but some newspapers claims he'll play a bad guy too. He could be both of course.

    It has. Dencik told a Danish movie magazine, that he will play a scientist. He was forced to do so, because most of the Danish press had headlines casting him as a villain, which - I guess - he felt was fake news.

    For my part I'm really glad that Norway is looking set to play a bigger part. It's been a simmering frustration of mine for several years that Bond hasn't been seeing some great locations out in the wider world - though we're headed back to Italy again!
