Author of James Bond book, Ian Fleming has showed much love for Jamaica, even settling down there. The character has spent a fair amount of time there in books as well as in a few films. But Daniel Craig’s depiction of the role has never been shot in the island country until the forthcoming movie.

The actor said that being in Jamaica was just exciting on so many levels for him. He has not been here for one. But also it is where Fleming wrote them so they were created here.
