Princes William and Harry are ready to stand shoulder to shoulder with another famous countryman of theirs: James Bond.
The two will join leading man Daniel Craig and other stars of Quantum of Solace for the film's world premiere Oct. 29 in London, the producers of the 007 series announced Wednesday.
Per the princes' request, proceeds from the event will go to benefit two charities: Help for Heroes, which aids wounded servicemen and women, and the Royal British Legion, which provides support to the serving and ex-Service community and their families.

Even James Bond gets hurt. 007 star Daniel Craig was rushed to the hospital after injuring his hand while filming an action scene Tuesday, PEOPLE has confirmed.
Craig, 40, was shooting a fight sequence for Quantum of Solace when a finger tip of his right hand was sliced open.
"He went to hospital but there were no stitches," a source tells PEOPLE. "There was, however, an awful lot of blood."
A spokesman for production company Eon stated that Craig was taken to see a doctor as "a precaution," according to the Daily Mail newspaper.

Daniel Craig Hurts from 007 Stuntwork
Originally posted 03/20/2008 05:00PM
Daniel Craig can already feel the new James Bond movie.
"They've started to hurt," the blond Bond, 40, tells Extra about the aches related to his stuntwork on Quantum of Solace, due to open this fall.
"I can only gauge it by how much pain I'm in, and I think we're doing pretty good," he says.
As for the name of the movie (the 007 series long ago went through the entire list of Bond creator Ian Fleming's list of titles), Craig says, "I'm very happy with it. It came from an Ian Fleming short story. It encapsulates what the movie is at heart and a lot more which I can't give any away."
He does reveal something about the newest Bond girl, Ukrainian-model-turned-actress Olga Kurylenko. Her character, says Craig, is "very driven. She has her own mission in the movie and, of course, she comes across Bond. They are opponents and then they have to work together. She's very feisty."

Daniel Craig on Being Bond, Again
Originally posted 01/25/2008 12:10PM
Break out the martinis – James Bond is back. As Daniel Craig begins filming the new 007 film, he explains the cryptic new title and how he's coping with pressure of being Bond.
"It's nice to be back," the actor said Thursday on the set of the 22nd James Bond installment, The Quantum of Solace – an uncharacteristically pensive title that left many at the press conference scratching their heads.
"We talked long and hard about it," said Craig, who'll reprise his role as James Bond following 2006's wildly successful Casino Roayle. "We could have gone for a snappier title but we wanted to suggest something about where he was at the end of the [last] movie."

Daniel Craig Reveals His Buff Body Secrets
Originally posted 11/26/2007 10:30AM
Daniel Craig confesses he vegged out for months after he was done building up his beefcake body for last year's Casino Royale.
"After it finished, I stopped training," the blond James Bond, 39, tells Britain's The Times.
As for his physical routine, he says he "relaxed for three months and ate what I wanted, and then it's hell because as soon as you get back in the gym, you have to work all that off, and it takes much longer than it does to put it on."
