Lovers of the action packed James Bond movie series will be happy know that the latest film will be released in 2012. Fifty years after the release of the first Bond movie “Dr. No” in 1962, the new movie which is yet to be named but known as “James Bond 23” will be released in London on October 26 and in the US on November 9. This will be the Twenty Third movie of the series.

Daniel Craig will return as steely agent 007. This will be his third Bond movie after starring in Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. It is expected that Dame Judi Dench will be returning as “M” despite her advancing years.

Director Sam Mendes is expected to direct the film. He is the director behind successful films like “American Beauty”, Revolutionary Road” and “Road to Perdition”.

No announcement has been made as to who the Bond girl would be, but rumor has it that it could be actress Naomi Harris who played the role of Tia Dalma in two Pirates of the Carribean movies. There is also speculation that Javier Bardmen will star in the film as well.
