Skyfall: First Q Picture
13.07.12 # Sequel # 7 Comments
Most of the pre-release excitement about Skyfall, aka Bond 23, has so far centred on the prospect of 007, played by the returning Daniel Craig, going toe-to-toe with new bad guy Raoul Silva, played by Javier Bardem. However another point of interest is the return of gadget-dispensing guru Q – the new Ben Whishaw-embodied incarnation of whom has just been unveiled.
In Bond movies of yore, Q was most famously played by the late Desmond Llewelyn. And with the character having sat out the 007 movies since the Craig-fronted reinvention of the franchise, he is now back, in the pale ‘n’ skinny form of Ben Whishaw, star of Perfume, Bright Star, The Tempest, and also for certain UK telly viewers, the hapless Pingu from Nathan Barley.
The first snap of Whishaw’s Q has now been revealed, with him sporting big hair, big specs and a natty brown ‘n’ maroon cardigan. He also looks exceptionally youthful, suggesting that this new Q could be presented as some kind of boy genius.

Directed by Sam Mendes and endorsed by Heineken (other beers are available), Skyfall is out in the UK on 26 October and in the US a fortnight later.

He looks like a hipster douche.
I bet he listens to indie music and carries a skateboard around even though he can’t even do a kick-flip.
I bet his girlfriend dresses like a twelve-year -old and plays bass in a Sonic Youth tribute band.
I bet he lives on cereal and has soya milk in his fridge.
I bet his Spectacles are just clear glass fakes and he does intellectual humorous retro raps about the Power Puff Girls on YouTube.
I bet he sucks ass out of his ass.
i like BOND movies, 2b honest, didn’t think Craig would b a good Bond, but he is. the “NEW Q” well we will see?
He just might just bring a fresh new look, to a classic Bond character.
Skyfall is gonna kick ass.
1st thing I thought when I saw this picture – “Oh look, Cillian Murphy is playing Q, no hold on it’s Andrew Garfield” – Wrong on both accounts!
Thom, it’s great to see you back. We’ve missed you round these parts.
