Patricia Malcolm, who owns the Duntrune Castle in Scotland, has revealed that the castle will be used in the upcoming Bond 23 film, rumored to be named Skyfall. Filming will take place in February and will also feature all the villains from the movie there. Malcolm also revealed that the castle will also double as the ancestral home for James Bond saying, "They are using the castle, just the outside, it's going to be used for the end of the film. I think it is meant to be James Bond's ancestral home - he will bring all the villains here." Filming of the project is supposedly taking place in China and Turkey, but producers wanted to film a winter scene so they chose Scotland and are bringing their own snow.



The ending of the film will also feature a bunch of explosions and mayhem, with sets being built for the film for the castle to be attack by land and by sea. Said Malcolm, "It looks as if they are going to construct the set and then blow it up. I think they are going to attack the castle from land and sea, there are going to a lot of bangs and explosions."With no other word on who the villain is or even confirmation on the official title looks like we will have to wait a little while to see what all this means for 007.

@ KNIGHT3000
I'd say "Die Another Day" is more apt.

A lot of bangs, huh? What kind of James Bond movie would it be if there wasn't a lot of bangin'!

Awesome that the movie ends in the country.
In Witness and Patriot Games style i hope.

Scotland is a beautiful place to end a good story. ;)

Skyfall reminds me of that terrible Skyline movie and it sounds in my ears like a tv-channel.
So hopefully they change it for something more classy and unique like From Russia With Love, Live and Let Die or The Spy Who Loved Me.
Carte Blanche was cool i think.
Short and pithy name wouldnt be bad at all as long as it doesnt remind of some other film. Specially a bad film.
