A new working title for the upcoming 25th James Bond film has seemingly been revealed.

Over the weekend, a listing on the job website Mandy.com – which specialises in the creative industry – appeared to reveal the new title as Eclipse.

While the listing has since been removed, a cached version has spread across the Internet.

The words “James Bond” are not featured anywhere, though the production company for Eclipse is listed as B25 Productions – the entity set up by EON to produce the next Bond film.

Reports previously claimed that Bond 25 had the working title Shatterhand, used in the books as an alias for Blofeld.

The news came from Production Weekly, who also claimed the film’s shoot will begin on 6 April in London’s Pinewood Studios before heading to Matera in Italy.

Bond 25, which was initially meant to be directed by Danny Boyle, but was taken over by director Cary Joji Fukunaga.

Reports have claimed that Bohemian Rhapsody actor Rami Malek has been approached to play the film’s villain and that Bond will drive an electric car in the film.
