Columbia Pictures has just released a “Skyfall” video blog that pays tribute to London, which is featured prominently in the new James Bond film.

Joining Craig and Dench in the cast are Javier Bardem, Naomie Harris, Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney, Ben Whishaw and Bérénice Marlohe.

In the film, James Bond’s loyalty to M (Dench) is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost.

“Skyfall” will begin its roll-out in the Philippines on Oct. 31st 2012. The film is distributed by Columbia Pictures, local office of Sony Pictures Releasing International.
