  They really made Jackie look worn out there.

  It's finally happening: The Foreigner with Jackie Chan and Pierce Brosnan, directed by Martin Campbell:
  
  

  
  When is this released again? If it turns out to be a big success? I wonder if Eon will approach Campbell for Bond 25?

  I don't think it's about EoN approaching Campbell but more if Campbell would want to do another.

  If I were him, I'd stay away from Bond, unless they call him back to re-imagine it again and launch a new actor. When I heard he was back for CR after the DAD/TWINE/TND debacles, I knew we were in for a winner. I'd feel the same way again despite his age, especially after the last effort. This man knows how to deliver a class Bond film.

  That is a fair point! Certainly helps that DC's Bond is a lot grittier than Brosnan's and maybe that might appeal to Campbell seeing as he introduced him?

  1st official trailer for The Foreigner:

  Looks interesting. I suppose it's a bit seen it before in tone but there's only so many plots out there. Hard to come up with fresh ideas. Recent film called Drone starring Goldeneye's Sean Bean has a similar-ish kind of premise. Man seeks revenge against those that killed his family. Different locations and characters but the trailers and general plotlines feel similar.
  
  Brosnan's accent sounds more authentic than the one he had in Taffin! That was one of the funniest in film history!

  I don't mean to be a party pooper, but that trailer really didn't do anything for me.

  Looks like it might be worth an in-flight viewing. Unfortunate that they've given Jackie the same make up as Zao in DAD.

  And there was me hoping that a Brosnan-ised Spectre would have ditched the arty farty nature of the actual film.

  Have Benny and Bjorn not used up most of their most popular songs in the first film? Be interesting to see if they write fresh music or delve deeper into the Abba back catalogue.
  
  Is PB taking part?
