Daniel Craig has been taking skiing lessons to help him prepare for the next James Bond movie.
The actor - who made his debut as the suave spy in 2006's 'Casino Royale' - has taken to the slopes in preparation for the latest film, tentatively titled 'Bond 22'.
A source said: "For the first time since 1969's 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service', Bond will be largely snow-bound. Much of it will be filmed in the Swiss Alps. The film is in pre-production for a major ski sequence."
Some of the most iconic scenes in Bond history have taken place on the piste.
In 'The Spy Who Loved Me', Roger Moore used a Union flag parachute after skiing off a cliff, while Timothy Dalton careered down a mountain in a cello case for 'The Living Daylights'.
Craig recently revealed he wanted to make Bond less macho and more comical.
The British star - whose gritty interpretation of 007 in 'Casino Royale' was critically acclaimed - wants the next film to be inspired by former Bond star Roger Moore, who was famed for his sardonic wit.
