Tailored suits have been the order of the day since the first time James Bond walked in front of the barrel of a gun, which makes not seeing him in one all that stranger. But that's exactly what we're dealing with in the first poster for his 24th adventure, Spectre, seeing the (normally) dapper super spy decked out in a black turtle neck, or 'tactal neck' for those of you who watch Archer.
It may seem strange to focus in on such a trifling little detail, but Bond in a suit is just one of the many iconic images associated with the long running franchise, and has been used on more than one occasion (twenty three probably) to announce his return. Not that I'm saying Casual Bond is no less bad ass, and Spectre will more than likely be yet another jewell in the crown of the franchise, but a lot has to be said of sticking with the classics.
Released: 6th November
Synopsis: A cryptic message from Bond’s past sends him on a trail to uncover a sinister organisation. While M battles political forces to keep the secret service alive, Bond peels back the layers of deceit to reveal the terrible truth behind SPECTRE.
