High Definition trailer of the new James Bond Movie Quantum of Solace

The car used in the latest James Bond film plunged into a lake in Italy on Sunday, while driven by a stunt driver, who was delivering the vehicle, a $220,000 Aston Martin, to the set of the new movie, “Quantum of Solace.”

The accident was not the result of a stunt, but of the heavy rain combined with the narrow curves of the Lake Guarda.

Fortunately, the driver was rescued quickly by firemen and taken to the hospital with minor injuries.

Italian television showed footage of the smashed, black car, reportedly the only one available for the new movie, while it was pulled out of the lake’s water.

“Quantum of Solace” is the latest film in the 007 series, starring Daniel Craig. The film is due to be released later this year and it has been filmed in several locations, including Chile, Mexico, Panama, England and Spain. The poetic title of the film was taken from a collection of short stories written by 007 creator Ian Fleming.

As previously reported, the new film will continue the story told in “Casino Royale,” as Bond seeks to discover the truth about Vesper Lynd’s betrayal. It was revealed that he learns Vesper (portrayed by Eva Green) had been blackmailed.

British actor Daniel Craig is the man, gay men most want to go on a date with. The James Bond star topped the poll of single homosexual guys, conducted by a dating website, after receiving 31 per cent of the vote.

Daniel — who starred as Francis Bacon’s gay lover George Dyer in 1998 film Love Is the Devil: Study for a Portrait of Francis Bacon — was followed by Atonement star James McAvoy, who came second with 18 per cent of the vote, and Colin Farrell, who finished third

The ‘Beowulf’ actress topped the poll, conducted by Empire magazine, to find the most beautiful star of the silver screen.

Angelina claimed the prestigious title because of her “pneumatic figure, feline eyes and lips that could have been stung by several hives of bees”.

She narrowly beat Natalie Portman, who finished in second position after “making baldness sexy” in ‘V for Vendetta’ and setting men’s pulses racing with her raunchy pole dancing scene in ‘Closer’.

James Bond actor Daniel Craig - who wowed women in ‘Casino Royale’ when he emerged from the ocean in a pair of tight-fitting blue swimming trunks - came third, while ‘Fantastic Four’ beauty Jessica Alba finished fourth.

‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ star Johnny Depp rounded off the top five.

Other entries on the list, which was voted for by 20,000 film fans, included Matt Damon - who was recently voted People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2007 - who took 17th spot.

British stars Christian Bale, Kate Winslet, Orlando Bloom, Kate Beckinsale and Clive Owen all made it in to the top 25, with ‘Harry Potter’ actor Daniel Radcliffe coming in at 23.

‘Volver’ actress Penelope Cruz took 50th position and the entire list was rounded off by ‘Die Hard 4.0′ actress Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
