Okay everybody, gird your loins. MGM is unveiling the theatrical trailer for Quantum of Solace — a.k.a. James Bond 22, if this is your first time on the internet — at 9 a.m. Pacific on Monday, June 30th. The trailer will be attached to Hancock, which comes out a mere two days later, but you’ll be able to see it early over at Moviefone on this page. Of course, we’ll let you know as soon as it’s up.

I remember that the start of the good buzz on Casino Royale roughly coincided with the release of its terrific teaser trailer — the one that began in black and white, with a Judi Dench voiceover — so I trust they’re putting a lot of love and effort into this one in the hopes of having another runaway hit on their hands. The project has taken a bit of a beating in the press, what with the on-set tragedies and much-ridiculed title, but I suspect once people see footage, they’ll come around. The blogosphere’s love affair with Daniel Craig is far from over.

Now, if only they can get this business about the song sorted out. I state they throw caution to the wind and go with Meat Loaf.
