MarlaLewinGFVReporting on movies, film festivals, film production, premieres, movie events, industry trends and plays from around the world  The Global Film Village: Sir Sean Connery has reunited with the classic Aston Martin DB5
by Marc Halperin The latest James Bond film is on hold because of financial problems at MGM and Connery has been replaced by a string of new Bonds that still haven't overcome his signature performance. Russell Crowe has stepped into the role of Robin Hood. Sir Sean hasn't been seen in a new movie since 2003's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen as Alan Quartermain. Some of us still think he was the last definitive Robin Hood in 1976's Robin and Marion with the wonderful Audrey Hepburn. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKPVGIdJr-k Now a Scottish company is finishing Scotland’s first animated feature in 3D with Sir Sean as the voice of Sir Billi. Ed Asner has set the precedent for grandfatherly action heroes in the Award winning UP from Disney and Pixar. Who better than Sir Sean Connery to give it a shot as a retired veterinarian whose motto is “licensed to heal”. "He drives a rusty old Landover about the highlands, but when duty calls, he turns to the family classic - the Aston Martin DB5,” said Director Sascha Hartmann. Connery will be reunited with more than an Aston Martin in this movie. The theme song for the new film has been sung by Dame Shirley Bassey, who sang Bond theme songs for Goldfinger and Diamonds Are Forever. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04l1dC7Nz9M Sir Billie website here or click the image above For more on James Bond see our article on Cubby Broccolli. 24.06.2010 | MarlaLewinGFV's blog Cat. : Alan Quartermain Aston Martin DB5 Aston Martin DB5 Audrey Hepburn Audrey Hepburn Billie British films British people Business Business Connery Contact Details Cubby Broccolli Diamonds Are Forever Director Entertainment Films Goldfinger http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04l1dC7Nz9M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKPVGIdJr-k James Bond James Bond Aston Martin DB5 James Bond films Marc Halperin Marion Person Career robin hood Russell Crowe Sascha Hartmann Sean Connery Sean Connery Sean Connery Shirley Bassey Shirley Bassey Technology Technology United Artists films veterinarian
