Trivia & production notes
- Development of Skyfall was suspended throughout 2010 due to MGM's financial troubles, with production resuming only after the studio exited bankruptcy in December 2010.
- The cast announcement press conference was held on November 3, 2011, exactly fifty years after Sean Connery was announced as James Bond for Dr. No.
- Daniel Craig returned as James Bond for the third time in Skyfall.
- Judi Dench returned as M for the seventh and final time in the role.
- Director Sam Mendes lobbied hard to cast Javier Bardem as villain Raoul Silva, and had the actor's script translated into Spanish as a commitment test.
- Javier Bardem dyed his blond hair for the role of Silva after brainstorming a distinct visual look with director Sam Mendes.
- Ralph Fiennes had been previously considered to play James Bond during the casting of GoldenEye before being cast in Skyfall as Gareth Mallory.
- The producers briefly considered casting Sean Connery as Kincade but rejected the idea, fearing his presence would be seen as stunt casting and disengage audiences.
- Skyfall marked Albert Finney's final film role before his death in 2019.
- Peter Morgan was originally commissioned to write the script but left when MGM filed for bankruptcy, with director Sam Mendes later disputing Morgan's claim that the final script retained his original concept.
