Gary Powell confirms stunt co-ordinator role on Casino Royale

Casino Royale - 15-11-05
Back in September, MI6 revealed that the stunt team for the next James Bond film "Casino Royale" was getting shaken and stirred, with a mix of new blood.

Today, Gary Powell confirmed he will be stunt co-ordinator on the 21st 007 movie.

In an interview with Tonight, Powell said: "It's a great privilege to work on Casino Royale. To do a James Bond film is every stunt coordinator's dream. It's the highest accolade."

London born Powell has just finished work with director Martin Campbell on his previous film "The Legend of Zorro". Powell already has 007 form, having doubled James Bond in 1999's "The World Is Not Enough" and Pierce Brosnan's debut outing "GoldenEye" in 1995.

Thanks to `JP` for the alert.
