James Bond Teams Up With The Queen For Olympic Parachute Glory


It was one of the 2012 London Opening Ceremony secrets that didn't stay secret months ahead of time, talk of this was out there on the open rumor circuit, but indeed show director Academy Award Winner Danny Boyle, managed to team up Daniel Craig's 007 and Queen Elizabeth II, who made her long awaited debut as a Bond Girl, in a tongue in cheek short film.

There were many prominent fictional and real life figures from UK history that made appearances during the four and a half hour event: Voldermort, Mary Poppins, JK Rowling, Rowan Atkison as Mr. Bean, David Beckham, Paul McCartney, and Daniel Craig as James Bond.

In the memorable spot, the iconic agent from Her Majesty's Secret Service enters Buckingham Palace alongside the Royal Corgis, with a mission to escort the Queen via helicopter transport to the Opening Ceremonies, complete with a climatic parachute jump.

Enjoy.
