The New Q

There’s a new, younger Q in the Bondverse, people, and he will be played by Ben Whishaw in this fall’s Skyfall.

Q has yet to assist Daniel Craig’s James Bond – the character wasn’t part of Casino Royale or Quantum of Solace – so his inclusion in Sam Mendes’ movie is especially, well...special.

007 fans will be pleased to know the guy will, in fact, play a pivotal role in helping Bond rescue MI6 from a looming threatening force from M’s (Judi Dench) past.
