The latest poster for the new James Bond movie pays tribute to two previous entries in the franchise.

Directed by Skyfall‘s Sam Mendes, SPECTRE is set for release in the UK on Monday 26 October and in the US on 6 November.

Daniel Craig wears a white suit heavily reminiscent of Sean Connery’s suit in Goldfinger in the new poster, which also features a man with skull make-up similar to Baron Samedi’s look in Live and Let Die.

Alongside returning regulars Ralph Fiennes (M), Ben Whishaw (Q), Naomie Harris (Miss Moneypenny) and Rory Kinnear (Tanner), new cast members in SPECTRE include Monica Belluci, Lea Seydoux, Dave Bautista and Christoph Waltz, with Sherlock star Andrew Scott.

The official synopsis for the film reads: “A cryptic message from Bond’s past sends him on a trail to uncover a sinister organisation. While M battles political forces to keep the secret service alive, Bond peels back the layers of deceit to reveal the terrible truth behind SPECTRE.”
