Casino Royale’s 007 can’t drive Aston’s stick

Embattled James Bond star Daniel Craig has hit another snag in the filming of “Casino Royale,” the latest installment of the 007 series. Craig – who was signed to replace former Bond Pierce Brosnan last October – said he’s unable to drive the manual transmission on Bond’s Aston Martin supercar. Filming has reportedly been halted while Craig learns to drive it. Interestingly, Ireland On-Line refers to the car as an Aston Martin DB5. However, Aston has said the car will be called DBS. A sketch was first released in January of the car, followed by what is purportedly a real photo last week.
