The Aston Martin DB5 in Skyfall [VIDEO]

Co-producer Michael G Wilson and director Sam Mendes talk about the Aston Martin DB5 in Skyfall in this video posted to YouTube today. The video also includes some scenes from the film as well as behind the scenes footage.

Wilson says that despite using other cars, they always return to Aston Martin, while Mendes says the DB5 was part of his boyhood and how he, like many of us, owned the Corgi toy, before going on to say the last part of the movie could have taken place in 1962.

David Leigh founded The James Bond Dossier in 2002. A fan of 007 since the age of 8, he is also author of The Complete Guide to the Drinks of James Bond. You can order a copy here if you don't own it already.
