Acting is hard. Acting while performing an enormous action sequence is… really hard. Acting while performing an enormous action scene that takes place completely underwater? Well, thank the powers that be that the James Bond franchise has Daniel Craig as its leading man.
In the latest video for Skyfall, 007’s 24th adventure that suits up for theaters November 9, the behind-the-scenes crew takes a peek at one of the film’s many action sequences. The set piece takes the close combat underwater, and to pull of the stunt, Craig and the massive crew of photographers and stunt men submerged their production in a state of the art, 1.2 million liter (317,006 gallon) pool. The massive tank is housed at Pinewood Studios, a complex utilized so often by Bond movies, it even has its own “007 Stage.”
