About
“SPECTRE”
A
cryptic message from the past sends James Bond (Daniel Craig) on a rogue
mission to Mexico City and eventually Rome, where he meets Lucia Sciarra
(Monica Bellucci), the beautiful and forbidden widow of an infamous
criminal. Bond infiltrates a secret meeting and uncovers the existence of
the sinister organisation known as SPECTRE.
Meanwhile
back in London, Max Denbigh (Andrew Scott), the new head of the Centre for
National Security, questions Bond’s actions and challenges the relevance of
MI6, led by M (Ralph Fiennes). Bond covertly enlists Moneypenny (Naomie Harris)
and Q (Ben Whishaw) to help him seek out Madeleine Swann (Léa Seydoux), the
daughter of his old nemesis Mr White (Jesper Christensen), who may hold the
clue to untangling the web of SPECTRE. As the daughter of an assassin, she
understands Bond in a way most others cannot.
As
Bond ventures towards the heart of SPECTRE, he learns of a chilling connection
between himself and the enemy he seeks, played by Christoph Waltz.
Sam
Mendes returns to direct SPECTRE,
with Daniel Craig reprising his role as 007 for the fourth time. SPECTRE is produced by Michael G. Wilson and
Barbara Broccoli. The screenplay is by John Logan and Neal Purvis &
Robert Wade and Jez Butterworth, with a story by John Logan and Neal Purvis
& Robert Wade.
SPECTRE is set for release in the UK on October
26, 2015, and in India on November 20, 2015.
