New Holland Equips James Bond in New “Casino Royale” Movie
New Holland made its silver screen debut with the Nov. 17 release of the
latest James Bond film, “Casino Royale.” The Bond production company chose New
Holland to supply a total of 11 machines, including two W190 wheel loaders, to
support the making of this latest blockbuster. A New Holland W190 will have the
starring role in the film’s opening sequence — a special Bond chase situation —
that features the new James Bond, Daniel Craig (also making his debut appearance
in the film), giving chase to the film’s villain,
Two Fingers.
The remaining New Holland machines, including crawler excavators, backhoe
loaders and skid steer loaders, were used to create a realistic construction
site, where the action sequence takes place. Filming for this sequence was
completed in the Bahamas. The film will be based largely on the original Ian
Fleming novel and will feature a mixture of the novel’s down-to-earth realism
and, of course, the Bond film extravaganza cinema audiences have come to expect.
