    As you say though, new producers, new writers, new director, I don't think the old rules necessarily count.
    Yes, good point. Will Amazon want to just hit all the continuity marks in order to win over existing fans or change it up to put their own stamp on it? If so, which elements might they tweak and to what extent, etc. CR showed that it's possible to make a great film that includes both those approaches to some degree, so Villeneuve's comment that CR and SF are the reference points bodes well, I'd say.

    Irma Bunt was in a lot of the earlier SP drafts - did anyone ever hear any rumours about possible casting choices for the role back in 2014?

    I understand the skinny woman in the SPECTRE meeting was meant to be her in early drafts. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I thought she fitted the villainess description perfectly, I wished they'd use her more, but I don't think she was Irma Bunt in the end. Neither did she remotely look like Bunt.

    Any butch looking actress who could play the role, or a similar one in a Bond film?

    I though I remember hearing Tilda Swinton back then but I could be wrong.
