The newest James Bond film, Quantum of Solace, features our own Panama in many parts of the film….
The film has been filmed in fabulous parts of Mexico, Panama and Chile. The flying segments were filmed in USA and Baja, California over the Sea of Cortes and the desert. The setting of the film is portrayed as Bolivia, but is actually parts of Panama and Chile.
The Quantum of Solace, the 22nd Bond film, stars Daniel Craig as Bond and co-stars Ukrainian actress, Olga Kurylenko. The film “continues the high-octane adventures of James Bond in Casino Royale”, according to producers.
The film features Scenes in Chile’s Atacama Desert and the Cerro Paranal Observatory. The cast and crew also took over many areas of Panama including: the old quarter of Casco Viejo, the Bay of Panama, the Panama Canal, the Club de Clases y Tropas (General Noriega’s former oceanside palace) and in parts of Colon, on the Caribbean side of the country. In the Casco Viejo scenes, members of the Embera tribe wear bowler-hats as extras.
