There’s been a heavy influx of official photos from the set of Skyfall, the 23^rd James Bond film, over the past several months; that said; the film has been relatively lacking in traditional advertising.  That changes now: the film’s teaser trailer is set for a May 21^st release, and today, we’ve got the official teaser poster.   It’s one that features Daniel Craig’s James Bond being, well, all James Bond-y (with some subtle plot hints).  Check it out below.

When is a Bond Girl not a “Bond Girl?” Naomie Harris and Bérénice Marlohe are joining Daniel Craig, Javier Bardem and Judi Dench in Skyfall, and both seem, superficially, like BGs. But are there rules? Do you have to – at the very least – make a pass at James Bond to join the club? Perhaps director Sam Mendes is the final arbiter, but it seems unlikely that Dench is a “Bond Girl.”  Harris and Marlohe have posted video blogs about the shoot, and Bond Girls, and you can check them out after the jump.

The latest James Bond film has kept its plot under wraps fairly well – little is known about what happens in the film other than modest plot details. But when it comes to shooting, it’s virtually impossible to go outside and not have someone take photos. And so Oh No They Didn’t! is the first to show Javier Bardem on the set of Skyfall.

Last month, we reported on the first official picture from Skyfall, the 23^rd film in the James Bond franchise (and the third film in the Daniel Craig continuity).  The picture wasn’t exactly action packed and didn’t reveal much, showing as it did the back of Bond’s head as he casually sat by a pool with his legs in the water; however, this new picture features a rough-looking James Bond sneaking and carrying a gun.

Yep, that’s Daniel Craig, and Empire is reporting that this is the first official picture of James Bond in Skyfall, the 23rd film in the franchise. The film is due out November 9 later this year, and shooting is underway, so there’s plenty of time to speculate what madness Bond gets into in this adventure. The film is being directed by Sam Mendes and also stars Judi Dench, Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw, Albert Finney, Naomie Harris, and Javier Bardem.

Oh boy—fans of the classic-era James Bond films just might have something to draw them to the upcoming (and currently untitled) James Bond 23, the third film in the Daniel Craig iteration of the long-running franchise: classic Bond super villain and arch nemesis Ernst Stavro Blofeld (you know, the guy that Dr. Evil was partly based upon) might be making an appearance in the Sam Mendes-directed film.

The future of Ron Howard’s massive three-film, two-season TV show adaptation of Stephen King’s multi-volume The Dark Tower series is beginning to look, well, dark.  Despite having a hotshot director like Howard attached, and Javier Bardem in talks to play the lead, Universal has passed on the ungainly production.

Remember back in March when we told you that the as-yet untitled 23^rd Bond film—the third with Daniel Craig as 007—was finally set for a 2012 release with direction from Sam Mendes?  Well, don’t worry, it’s not getting put on hiatus again—but it is getting a pretty auspicious cast.

Remember back in March when we reported that Javier Bardem was “psychologically” attached to the role of Roland the gunslinger, the lead role in Ron Howard’s three-films-and-a-TV-series adaptation of Stephen King’s seven book series The Dark Tower?  Well, it looks like he’s now a little more than “psychologically” attached to the role.
