First look at Bond villain Javier Bardem from the set of Skyfall

SKYFALL, the next installment in the Bond franchise from director Sam Mendes, has been filming for a while now and so far we’ve only really gotten glimpses of 007 himself in varying forms of shaggy and handsome cragginess.

But today, new photos from the set of the shoot have revealed Bond’s villain Javier Bardem for the first time, seen here sporting a godly blonde hairdo while in the guise of a Metropolitan Police officer. The Daily Mail reveals that his character’s name will be ‘Silva’, though that’s also about all we know in regards to him.

SKYFALL is scheduled to open November 9th.

Synopsis: Daniel Craig is back as James Bond 007 in Skyfall, the 23rd adventure in the longest-running film franchise of all time.  In Skyfall, Bond’s loyalty to M (Judi Dench) is tested as her past comes back to haunt her.  As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost.
