Director Sam Mendes is keeping the mood dark, at least in the first official trailer for new 007 film Spectre. Set for a November release, the James Bond flick features our favorite spy peeling back the layers of a sinister organization called — you guessed it — Spectre (the evil operation seeking world domination isn't a new invention in the 007 world; it previously featured in films such as Thunderball and You Only Live Twice).
Watch Bond dig deep into his past — and possibly uncover a troubling, personal connection to Spectre — in the cryptic new trailer, below. —Sarah Eberspacher
