Even though there are no supercars being flung around or goons with itchy trigger fingers, Daniel Craig probably still had a lot of fun filming this commercial.
As you’re well aware, James Bond has never been the one to shy away from driving all types of motorized vehicles. He’ll even fly a plane if necessary and water chases are actually pretty common in the Bond universe – remember the boat scene in Quantum of Solace?
Well, it turns out that this ad isn’t much different than pretty much any movie chase scene that involves boats.
Bond is being followed by the bad guys when all of a sudden a bystander is drawn into the action, showing excellent wakeboarding skills, as well as beer bottle balancing skills. OK this last part is pretty different than what we’re used to seeing on the big screen.
In the end, the woman in the video (there always has to be a Bond girl, right?) helps 007 out of his jam, which means that she’s just earned herself a lunch date with the world’s most famous secret agent.
Of course, once Spectre hits theaters in November, we’ll most certainly see a lot more realistic chases and stunts (if we could call them realistic), and while boats can be cool, what we’re most excited about is seeing the Aston Martin DB10 kick some behind.
