Gemma is featured in the March 2008 issue of Vanity Fair Germany with Orlando Bloom on the cover. We don’t know what it says about her or if it features a photo. We simply know that there’s 1 page partially dedicated to her. We’re unable to find that magazine where we live, so if you have it, please consider donating a scan!

We’ve recently updated the photo gallery with plenty of new photos, including captures, posters and stills. Please take a look at the last uploads to view all the new additions!

Earlier today, BBC One’s Breakfast programme got an exclusive look into the filming of Daniel Craig’s second 007 film, Quantum of Solace.

The two-minute long video, which can be viewed at YouTube thanks to CommanderBond.net Forum member ‘Royal Dalton’, features the Bond cast and crew in California and Panama.

The video features several shots of Bond in the streets of Panama as well as a helicopter taking off in the California desert, a location ‘so remote that three trips had to be made each time equipment and the crew had to be moved.’ A scene of a plane taking off in the desert is also shown.

Speaking on the Bond set in Panama City, Gemma Arterton, who plays MI6 Agent Fields in the film, said: ‘It was great working on the streets of Panama because you get a sense of what the real Panama City’s like. They’ve got so much life and character to them. It’s a brilliant location.’

Also included is a before-and-after shot of a local ruin that has been transformed into the location of a ‘key’ party sequence in the film that features Mathieu Amalric (Dominic Greene), Olga Kurylenko (Bond girl Camille) and Anatole Taubman (Elvis) in addition to Craig and Arterton.

Lastly, a brief look into an action scene with director Marc Forster and Craig is featured.
