Puente Gravina In Puglia
The ambush on the bridge takes place while James Bond is in Matera. In reality, however, the building is located in Gravina in Puglia, about thirty kilometres from Matera. Determined to use the bridge as the setting for one of the film’s big action scenes, director Cary Joji Fukunaga asked the special effects team to digitally link the bridge to Matera.
Before the film was released in theatres, the latter shared working shots on which appeared a drawing of the bridge, hanging on the cliff where the troglodytic village of Matera is located. On screen, the illusion is perfect.
The Aston Martin DB5 appears in eight films in the James Bond saga: Goldfinger, Thunderball, GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, Casino Royale, Skyfall, 007 Spectre and No Time to Die.
