Daniel Craig takes inspiration from Sir Roger Moore as he dons black polo neck and shoulder holster in Spectre poster

Haven't we seen that look before Mr Bond? Daniel Craig takes inspiration from Sir Roger Moore as he dons black polo neck and shoulder holster in Spectre poster

The first teaser poster for the latest installment in the James Bond film franchise has been revealed and the super spy is looking strikingly familiar.
While Daniel Craig returns as the suave Bond for the fourth time, he appears to have taken some fashion tips from a previous incarnation, sporting a similar look to Sir Roger Moore in the 1973 film, Live And Let Die.
The poster shows him dressed in black trousers and a turtleneck,  sporting a shoulder holster and holding a gun while he stares moodily into the camera.

And the new movie is sticking close to the tried and tested Bond format, with the official synopsis revealing, '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.' 
The release of the teaser poster, featuring the official 007 logo, comes just after Craig and Moore teamed up for a Comic Relief skit on March 13th. 
The one-off sketch left viewers shaken AND stirred as Bond's 'biggest secret' was revealed.

In the mockumentary-style clip, it was claimed that Daniel Craig's voice had to be dubbed in Casino Royale and all subsequent Bond movies as he actually sounds like a little girl.
And none other than comedian Alan Carr was revealed to be the 'real' voice of Bond in the hilarious 'mockumentary'.
Kicking off the sketch, Bond producer Michael G Wilson explained: 'Daniel was born to play Bond, apart from the thing...' 

Not impressed: Daniel could be seen protesting, 'I don't sound like a little girl - I sound like a big manly man, which is what I am.’

They then revealed the 'one thing about Daniel that millions of fans around the world don't know.'
Craig's co-star Ben Whishaw continued: 'When he talks Daniel sounds really distinctive. It's just not the voice you think of when you think of Bond.'
Daniel protested: 'I don't sound like a little girl - I sound like a big manly man, which is what I am.’
Surprise: In the end, it was revealed that Alan Carr was, in fact, the source of James Bond's voice in the movie

His co-star, Naomie Harris, was heard talking with a manly Northern accent, while Moore's clipped tones were revealed to be fake and his real voice was Geordie. 
The sketch was part of Comic Relief's Face The Funny, which raised millions for charity. 
Meanwhile, it was recently revealed that Mexican actress Stephanie Sigman, 28,  had become the latest female addition to Spectre, joining previously announced stars Monica Bellucci and Lea Seydoux.
The news was announced on the official James Bond Twitter account, where the post read: 'We are pleased to announced that @SigmanStephanie has joined the cast of #Spectre as Estrella.'

Spectre stands for the global terrorist organisation, Special Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion. 
Sigman, who is to star in the upcoming Netflix series Narcos, is best known for roles in films like Miss Bala and Pioneer.
Last month 47-year-old Daniel was injured behind the wheel during a high-speed car chase through the streets of Rome - his second injury while filming the movie. 
The secret agent's state of the art silver Aston Martin DB10 hit a bump in the road, as it raced through the central streets, which had been closed off for filming. 
Craig reportedly also suffered a knee injury just a week before while filming in Austria. 
Spectre will open in UK cinemas on November 6 2015.
