We've got our first look at Bond 25 as Daniel Craig 's last outing as 007 starts filming in Norway.

The new set photos for the 25th James Bond film show a mysterious, masked gunman - very Phantom of the Opera - chasing a young girl across the ice.

The man is dressed in an off-white coat, with a white mask covering a large part of his face, similar to the theatrical mask seen in Phantom of the Opera.

Cameramen can be seen following the pair in what appears to be a dramatic chase filmed in Nittedal, just north of Norway's capital, Oslo.

The crew filmed the man chasing the girl across the ice, before the girl ducked onto the ground. The man is seen shooting at the ice and crouching down as if reaching for something.

The team sprayed artificial snow across the set as temperatures rose to eight degrees.

Little is known about the scene, but it's thought it could be a flashback with the young girl playing a young Madeline Swann - Bond's love interest in Spectre (2015).

Craig was not seen on set, perhaps he's still working out 12-hours a day to get buffed up for his role.

Bond 25 is Craig's fifth film and his last, with the team behind it promising a non-linear narrative for his depature.

Rumour has it that Rami Malek is playing the overall villain, but he has yet to be seen on set.

Cary Joji Fukunaga directs the movie, which also sees the return of Seydoux as Swann, Ralph Fiennes as M, Ben Whishaw as Q and Naomie Harris as Money Penny.

As well as Norway it's thought the movie is shooting in Jamaica and Matera in Italy.

We are still waiting on a title, as while it was rumoured to be Shatterhand at first this has been confirmed this is not the case. Another contender is Eclipse after Barbara Broccoli confirmed Shatterhand was fake or at least just a working title.

Meanwhile speculation who will take over the role of Bond has hotted up again with Sam Heughan , he of Outlander fame, making headlines after a source told Mail on Sunday he had been called in for an audition.

His odds were slashed after the report.
