Bond is back in SPECTRE and VisitBritain and the GREAT Britain campaign is once again utilizing 007's iconic international profile to show the world what makes Britain 'Great' and entice more international visitors to Britain.
The British High Commission (BHC) in Colombo hosted an event at Westminster House, with the attendance of Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe, Ministers and members of Parliament, the business community and members of the Colombo arts scene.
The evening, which highlighted the breath and international success of Britain's creative industries, featured British brand Jaguar Land Rover and was supported by Omega. The film will be distributed in Sri Lanka by Liberty Lands and Developments and Tanweer films.

SPECTRE, the 24th James Bond adventure from Albert R. Broccoli's EON Productions, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer-Studios, and Sony Pictures Entertainment, launches in cinemas worldwide from October 26 and in the US on November 6, 2015. To leverage the global fascination with James Bond and the international exposure the film affords to potential visitors to Britain, VisitBritain is launching a global Bond is GREAT Britain film tourism campaign in partnership with Sony Pictures Entertainment and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios.
