ABOVE: BEHIND-THE-SCENES: NEW AND RETURNING FACES - In addition to its diverse international cast, Spectre (2015) was produced by an equally talented crew – most of whom had worked on earlier films in the Bond series. (1) Sam Mendes who was the driving force behind the most successful film in the series, Skyfall (2012), returned to direct its follow-up. (2) Chilean-born American Alexander Witt served as Second Unit Director and Photographer after performing the same duties on Casino Royale (2006) and Skyfall (2012). (3) Swiss-born Hoyte van Hoytema joined the series as Director of Photography. (4) American Production Designer Dennis Gassner returned for his third successive James Bond film. (5) Oliver Schneider [pictured with Daniel Craig] joined the series as Fight Co-ordinator - going on to become Supervising Stunt Co-ordinator on No Time To Die (2021). (6) Daniel Kleinman [pictured with Daniel Craig] returned to the series for a sixth time to design the Main Titles for Spectre (2015). Kleinman took over the role after the death of Maurice Binder in 1991, and designed the Main Titles for all subsequent James Bond films since GoldenEye (1995), with the exception of Quantum of Solace (2008).
