Apr. 29 2008, Published 9:50 a.m. ET
Reports are circulating that troubled Grammy-winner Amy Winehouse is working on a possible theme song for the next James Bond film, Quantum of Solace.
According to Mark Ronson, who is producing Amy's follow-up to the hugely successful Back to Black album, he and the troubled songstress are in the studio putting together a track for the film, set to be released in November, though he admits that it's not a sure thing at this point whether or not the song will make the final cut.

While a spokesman for Winehouse's record label Island Records calls the Bond rumors "speculation," they do admit that "it would be lovely" if the "Rehab" singer were the latest in a long line of big names to sing a Bond theme.
Previous hit-makers to record a song for a 007 film include Paul McCartney ("Live and Let Die"), Duran Duran ("A View to a Kill"), Sheena Easton ("For Your Eyes Only"), Tina Turner ("GoldenEye"), Madonna ("Die Another Day"), Sheryl Crow ("Tomorrow Never Dies") and most recently Chris Cornell of Soundgarden, whose "You Know My Name" was the opening song for Casino Royale.
