Audioslave frontman Chris Cornell is to write and record the theme tune to the new James Bond film, Casino Royale.

 

The theme for the 21st Bond film, in which Daniel Craig will debut as 007, is titled You Know My Name.

 

A film spokeswoman said Cornell's music was "both soulful and tough" and "the perfect complement" to the film.

 

Casino Royale will receive its world premiere in London on 14 November. The film is released three days later in the UK and US.

 

US rocker Cornell was previously the singer with Seattle rock group Soundgarden.

 

Bond classics

 

He joins a long list of famous names who have recorded songs for Bond films, including Madonna, Sir Paul McCartney, Duran Duran, Shirley Bassey, Tina Turner and Nancy Sinatra.

My verdict: I love the guy, but i'm still unsure whether he has the voice for a Bond film or not. Still, i have high hopes for this. :)
