“The new film is not going to be called Carte Blanche and will have nothing to do with the Jeffery Deaver book,” the filmmakers are reported to have said in a statement to the press.
The 23rd James Bond film will again star Daniel Craig as 007 and will shoot at least partially in India, including scenes in Dehli and a stunt sequence amid freight trains in the Sabarmati railway yard. Apparently, freight trains play a major role in the plot.
But, wait, didn't Carte Blanche start with action involving a freight train in Serbia? Oh, never mind.
Bond 23 will be directed by Sam Mendes for release in November 2012.
