Things are finally underway on the 23rd entry in the James Bond series, with filming starting late last week, a title confirmed as "Skyfall," the cast of Daniel Craig, Javier Bardem, Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw, Albert Finney and Naomie Harris formally announced, and even a vague plot synopsis being revealed. Now that shooting has begun in London, there's been a couple of last-minute casting announcements; one a name previously linked with the project, one a brand new one.
The official @007 Twitter feed (via Coming Soon) announced yesterday that Helen McCrory and Ola Rapace are among the cast of "Skyfall." McCrory, perhaps best known internationallly for playing Narcissa Malfoy in the last few "Harry Potter" films, has a history with director Sam Mendes, having appeared alongside Emily Watson and Mark Strong in his final productions at the Donmar Warehouse in 2002, "Twelfth Night" and "Uncle Vanya." Her name's been connected to the project for over a month now, but this is the first word from inside Sony that she's involved.

"Those were the days when we still associated Bond with suave, old school actors such as Sean Connery and Roger Moore,"
