New Land Rover Defender to play Hero-car in the new James Bond movie

- Will be the first movie  to feature the New Defender 

- Land Rover also took James Bond and Defender fans behind the scenes with the No Time To Die stunt team

We car enthusiasts love to see cars in action in movies. James Bond films are especially known to show some of the best car action scenes and the latest upcoming Bond film, No Time to Die is no different. Only this time the Hero car isn’t a flashy Aston Martin, instead it’s the new butch looking Land Rover Defender. No Time To Die will be the first movie to feature the New Defender, the latest legendary vehicle to star in a James Bond car chase sequence. The New Defender has been tested by the 007 expert stunt team in the most extreme off-road conditions, demonstrating its off-road capability. 

Land Rover’s design team worked closely with Special Effects and Action Vehicles Supervisor Chris Corbould on the specification of the Defenders in the film. Based on the Defender X model in Santorini Black, with darkened skid pans, 20 in dark finish wheels and professional off-road tyres, they were the first Defenders to be built at Jaguar Land Rover’s new production facility in Nitra, Slovakia. 

No Time To Die, is directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga and stars Daniel Craig, who returns for his fifth film as Ian Fleming’s James Bond 007. The movie should be hitting our shores in April 2020 and we can’t wait for it.
