Expect Tons of Product Placements in “Bond 23”

A new record has been set for product placement fees in a motion picture. The Daily Record relays that advertisers are set to pay £30 million for their products to be featured in Bond 23. The previous record was set by the Steven Spielberg sci-fi flick Minority Report, the product placement fee of which was £15 million – half of what Bond 23 will have – thanks to spots from American Express, Bulgari, and Lexus.

Considering that the film will hit theaters near the end of next year, such hefty fees at a stage this early are a bit excessive. Then again, various brands of cars and vodka took center stage for the Bond flick Die Another Day.
