Bond to drive Aston Martin DBS in new film

James Bond will once again drive the Aston Martin DBS in the new Bond film starring Daniel Craig, it has been announced.

The new film, with the working title BOND 22, will de directed by Marc Forster whose credits include Finding Neverland and Monster´s Ball.

The Aston Martin DBS made its first public appearance in Casino Royale when it smashed its way into the Guinness World Record books for ‘The Most Cannon Rolls In A Car’ for the stunt which saw the DBS rolled seven times.

Aston Martin Chief Executive Officer, Dr Ulrich Bez, said: “Aston Martin is proud of our long association with James Bond. The DBS has its own unique character which equals that of James Bond. It is explosive power in a black tie.

"It is the perfect car for James Bond as it delivers the complete driving experience and bridges the gap between our road and track cars – the DB9 and DBR9.

"It is equally at home on a twisting mountain circuit as on the open road and we are all very excited at the prospect of seeing it on the big screen again.”

BOND 22 is scheduled for international theatrical release in November 2008.
