not really a prequel - it's a reboot.
It's all contemporary and it starts off as if there had never been any previous Bond stories. It is restarting the franchise in the same way Batman Begins did.
M is in place before Bond becomes a double-o, she's played by Judi Dench simply to provide a little familiarity and continutity to the series - and she's great in the role.
