The new James Bond film is set to be called Skyfall.
The makers of the 23rd film in the 007 series have registered the domain name Skyfall before filming starts.
MGM and Sony pictures, who are financing the film, have registered the web names JamesBond-Skyfall.com and Skyfallthefilm.com.
He's back: Daniel Craig, pictured in Quantum Of Solace, will reprise his role as James Bond in the new movie, thought to be called Skyfall
Producers of the film have yet to reveal its title.
It will be the shortest 007 title since the first in 1962, Dr No, and the first completely original title since Die Another Day a decade ago.
Star power: Dame Judi Dench will star in her third James Bond movie
Daniel Craig will make his third appearance as James Bond with Sam Mendes directing the film,
Earlier this year, the studios announced the movie, referred to as Bond 23, will be released in the UK and Ireland on October 26 next year, with the U.S. launch set for November 9.
A US website discovered the domain names for the film had been registered by a brand protection company that has registered thousands of names for Sony Pictures.
Both Bond films starring Craig, Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, were box office hits.
The latest film has been marred by controversy with MGM filing for bankruptcy last year.
In December the executives of Spyglass Entertainment, Gary Barber and Roger Birnbaum, became co-chairmen and co-chief executives of the company and it emerged from bankruptcy.
Craig will be joined by Dame Judi Dench, who reprises her role as M, while Javier Bardem and Ralph Fiennes are reportedly joining the cast along with Naomie Harris as the new Miss Moneypenny.
