With Daniel Craig having stepped into the shoes of 007 so smoothly, fans can't be blamed forgetting how suave his predecessor was.

But as Pierce Brosnan arrived on the set of his new film Remember Me, it was clear he still has the dashing charm that made him a sartorially successful James Bond.

Wearing his signature look - a well-cut suit and tasteful shirt and tie - the actor look relaxed and ready to get down to business in his latest role.

In his upcoming film, which is shooting in New York, the father-of-five - who played the famous secret agent until 2002 - has been cast as Twilight star, Robert Pattinson's, father.

A drama, Brosnan's latest project is about a pair of star-crossed lovers - Pattinson and Lost actress Ally Craig - who are brought together by family tragedy.

It is the actor's first foray back on the big screen since the overwhelming success of the musical Mamma Mia!

And despite being 56, the Irish star will be giving his younger co-star a run for his money in the heart-throb stakes, looking ten younger than his age as he chatted with crew members between takes.

Pattinson arrived on set also in the uniform that has become his signature style - baseball cap, sungasses, scruffy jeans and t-shirt accessorised by a backpack.

The London native - who also starred in the fourth installment the Harry Potter films - is reportedly overwhelmed by the amount of attention Twilight-lovers have bestowed upon him.
