London, UK (January 5, 2016) – The 24th James Bond adventure SPECTRE, from Albert R.
Broccoli’s EON Productions, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios and Sony Pictures Entertainment, will be
available to own on Digital HD™ on 19th February and on Blu-ray™ & DVD on 22nd February, it
was announced today by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios and Twentieth Century Fox Home
Entertainment.
Taking in more than $850 million (USD) worldwide, SPECTRE dominated the worldwide box-office
making it one of the most successful Bond movies ever, shattering records in nearly every market it
was released, led by a historic performance in the UK. The latest installment from one of the longestrunning
film franchises in history gives fans never-before shared insight into the complexities that
made James Bond the man he is today.
In SPECTRE, 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 organisation 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.
Sam Mendes returns to direct SPECTRE, with Daniel Craig reprising his role as 007 for the fourth
time. The film is produced by Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli. The screenplay is by John
Logan and Neal Purvis & Robert Wade and Jez Butterworth, with a story by John Logan and Neal
Purvis & Robert Wade.
