The latest in the series of Spectre vlogs has arrived and it spotlights the new Bond theme song, “Writing’s On The Wall,” by singer/songwriter Sam Smith. The new video features interviews with Smith as well as Spectre director Sam Mendes, and producer Barbara Broccoli. In the new vlog, Smith says he was told they were looking for the greatest love song and he talks about how he initially became involved in this Bond film.


Spectre opens in theaters on November 6, 2015.

The Plot:

A cryptic message from the past sends James Bond (Daniel Craig) on a rogue mission to Mexico City and eventually Rome, where he meets Lucia Sciarra (Monica Bellucci), the beautiful and forbidden widow of an infamous criminal. Bond infiltrates a secret meeting and uncovers the existence of the sinister organization known as SPECTRE.

Meanwhile back in London, Max Denbigh (Andrew Scott), the new head of the Centre for National Security, questions Bond’s actions and challenges the relevance of MI6, led by M (Ralph Fiennes). Bond covertly enlists Moneypenny (Naomie Harris) and Q (Ben Whishaw) to help him seek out Madeleine Swann (Léa Seydoux), the daughter of his old nemesis Mr White (Jesper Christensen), who may hold the clue to untangling the web of SPECTRE. As the daughter of an assassin, she understands Bond in a way most others cannot.

As Bond ventures towards the heart of SPECTRE, he learns of a chilling connection between himself and the enemy he seeks, played by Christoph Waltz.
