Scenes from upcoming James Bond movie Skyfall were being shot in London yesterday, and some new on-set snaps of Daniel Craig have emerged online.

After seeing the first official image from Skyfall earlier this week, we've been left to presume that times are going to be tough for Bond in his latest adventure.

From his 'I ain't got time to shave' stubble in the official image, to the dusty, battered pinstriped suit evidenced here, this is shaping up to be one of his most challenging missions yet.

Check out a selection of ComingSoon.net's images below:

Skyfall opens on 26 October 2012, at the tail-end of what's shaping up to be one hell of a year for movies.

It was with great sadness that we learned of the death of actor Ben Gazzara, a star whose screen presence will possibly mean more to a lot of people than his not-too-familiar name.

Gazzara died in a Manhattan hospital on Friday 3 February as a result of his pancreatic cancer.

He first found fame in a stage production of Tennessee Williams' Cat On A Hot Tin Roof, but he went on to notch up well over a hundred TV and film appearances.

Most notable among his movie out put was Otto Preminger's Anatomy Of A Murder (which kickstarted his big screen career in 1959), and a brief but impactful role as porn baron Jackie Treehorn in The Big Lebowski.

We'll perhaps remember him most fondly as the scourge of the Double Deuce nightclub in '80s gem Road House, which saw him face off against Patrick Swayze's philosophising bouncer.

You're also likely to have seen him in everything from Happiness, to The Thomas Crown Affair remake, to Summer Of Sam and Dogville.

His gruff, piercing intensity was frequently utilised for tough-guy roles, such as the lead in Capone.

Our thoughts go out to Gazzara's wife and daughter.

While there's been no shortage of promotional material from The Hobbit since the epic two-parter started production (Peter Jackson sure does love the internet), it's always nice when something new arrives.

Another image has been revealed, and this one shows Bilbo in the midst of his unexpected houseguests: namely, the Dwarves he'll eventually go on a quest with.

This glimpse is also a reminder that character interaction is going to play as big a part in the film as troll fights, massive spiders and dragon raids - which is why we're so excited about seeing it.

It's also reassuring to see that food - a key concern for Hobbits and Dwarves - is still at the forefront.

Here's that image:

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey opens on 14 December 2012.
