well, saw some parts of the DaD DVD... funny fact:
they had to actually give the Aston Martin (the Vanish) normal-weather tires for the chase scene on the icd because the car was SO good steerable still that it felt like they were driving on tarmac!

in DaD; the suit that Toby (Gustav Graves) uses at the end of the movie, kept falling off in the action scenes. They had to use glue to keep it on

TND: Michelle Yeoh did as many of her own stunts as she was allowed to in this movie (that is her climbing around on the front of that bike). This was partly because they couldn't find a stuntwoman as small as she is.

yeah, that's what Pierce said on the dvd, they had a big jar of glue and this guy had to keep glue-ing the stuff back on the actor
but he makes up size with ego 😱

When brainstorming for ideas about this story, they were thinking of returning to Bond his roots, to go back to his youth. In the novels they consulted for this, they found SMERSH and used the idea of Smert Spionem in the movie cause of this
