Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - It looks like Jack White isn't a coke drinker. The White Stripes rocker is "disappointed" that the "Quantum of Solace" soundtrack he recorded with R&B songstress Alicia Keys has been heard in a Coca-Cola ad.

The new song, "Another Way To Die," has been composed and written for the latest James Bond film. However, the film execs felt it would also do for the new soft drink, Coke Zero Zero 7, to use the song in its advertisement, as per NME.

His management has issued a statement saying, "Jack White was commissioned by Sony Pictures to write a theme song for the James Bond film 'Quantum of Solace,' not for Coca Cola."

"Any other use of the song is based on decisions made by others, not by Jack White."

"We are disappointed that you first heard the song in a co-promotion for Coke Zero, rather than in its entirety."

"Quantum of Solace," which stars Daniel Craig as the infamous James Bond, is scheduled for release on November 14 in the U.S. and on October 31 in the U.K.
