Casino Royale Website Launched

Only two days have passed since Daniel Craig was announced as the new 007, and Sony Records has already launched the official website for "Casino Royale," the new James Bond movie, based on the book written by Ian Flemming.

“Casino Royale” will be the 21st James Bond film to be produced, and promises to be as full of excitement and action as previous films have been. The movie will be filmed in Italy, the Bahamas and Prague. The name “Casino Royale” comes from an actual casino in France which is the focus of the second half of the movie.

Ian Fleming's original "Casino Royale" book describes Bond on a mission to neutralize a lethal, high-rolling Russian operative who goes by the name of 'Le Chiffre'. Gambling is a primary focus of the book as well as the movie. The only difference is that Bond must ruin Le Chiffre at the baccarat table in the book. However, in the new James Bond film, the focus is not on Baccarat, but rather, poker, particularly no-limit Texas Hold'em.
