    Not sure how credible, but just read on a Norwegian online News site that the producers are looking for an American or Canadian actress for a part in the next film.

    WHOA, WHOA. Broccoli made these comments at the end of the Hollywood Reporter podcast that came out TWO WEEKS AGO. Some of the British tabloids (definitely the Daily Mail) lifted the quotes without attribution.

    If you actually listen to that interview, it comes across (at least to me) that Broccoli that deflecting the question in a kind of "we'll see" way while making clear nothing would happen as long as Craig was around.

    After watching Dunkirk it has reinforced my pro Nolan directing a future Bond film.

    Getting *engaged*. They're not married yet. That will be a huge production with an accompanying soap opera whether the US president will be invited or not.

    Press reports say Kenneth Branagh wants to be BOND 25 villain.

    James Bond 25: Kenneth Branagh wants to be Daniel Craig’s final 007 villain
    https://buzzfixtoday.online/james-bond-25-kenneth-branagh-wants-to-be-daniel-craigs-final-007-villain/

    Craig’s fifth and final James Bond movie is set to shoot in 2018, but not much is known about the 25th official 007 outing.

    Now Murder on the Orient Express star Sir Ken has revealed he would love to play the Bond villain.

    Speaking with The Mirror, the 57-year-old said: “I think as an actor that is always delicious to play.

    “I am a connoisseur of those Bond villains. But is a hard one to do. I loved Javier Bardem in Skyfall. [Craig’s villains were] almost Shakespearean.”

    Sir Ken added: “That franchise has been great at responding to the way that audiences want to receive the material.

    “That is not trying to be a cartoon – they want to have as much complication as possible.”

    The last British actor to play a Bond villain was Toby Stephens as Gustav Graves in 2002’s Die Another Day.

    However rumours suggest Christoph Waltz’s Blofeld will return after Spectre, something the star denies.

    Waltz told Italian channel Talky Movie: “No, I’m sorry. I’m really sad, but that’s the tradition, that there is a new (actor)… Sorry. I would’ve liked to.”

    James Bond 25 will be released in UK cinemas in November 2019.
    EON, Kenneth Branagh is handing you Kenneth Branagh on a silver platter! Don't waste the opportunity!

    She doesn't sound like she really gives a damn about pursuing that female Bond idea. Good.

    Though if bond became black or female or Muslim or gay or whatever, could we still watch the films and be fans of the new films, I for one couldn’t, the character would be ruined.

    I'm actually okay with the character becoming a gay woman of color but only if Daniel Craig is still cast as Bond. Would make for a memorable Bond film at the very least.

    I know I'd stop watching them the minute they make drastic changes like that, which I know they're not stupid to even think about resorting to those.

    Female + other minority Bonds are just the fantasies the media loves to have and will continue to do so... And of course, the SJW crowd.

    Yes, and that's better than her analyzing it in depth and talking about feminism or whatever. Means there's a chance she's not thrilled about the idea. An awful idea, but in today's social climate it refuses to go away.

    I just tried to imagine Larry Croft, and nothing but ridiculousness came out.

    Anyhow, Eon is probably aiming for a comparable female lead character with The Rhythm Section, so if at all, we would get a crossover in ten years, but no female Bond.

    Actually that would be the only possible way for Craig to top the dramatic scenarios of the previous films and close his story arc.

    Jesus, I would hope they just agree to not be controversial but damn why does everyone care about throwing in a black person so “it’s not racist”, sorry but do we really want to watch a woman spy shag a bunch of random guys? Wouldn’t work.

    Why is the media so obsessed with Idris Elba?? Don’t they know he would be in his 50s by the time he’s even considered for Bond? They aren’t signing a 50 year old up for Bond smh.

    Iv said this a million times but why not just create a NEW CHARACTER?!

    Seriously! Make a female spy character up or a black spy character and give them their own charactistics.

    It’s the same lame crap over and over again “Idris Elba, Tom Hardy or some random trans actor/actress” smh.


    What also pisses me off is that Craig has been Bond for over ten years yet every year they talk about replacing him versus praising him.

    There is nothing new to this.
    The press will keep asking, just to get a controversial soundbite and make a nice little clickbait headline out of it like the one above.

    The press can ask for a Black or Female Bond all they want but guess what? The press does not give a damn whether a Black or Female Bond would actually sell any tickets or kill the franchise for Good.
    Barbara is not an idiot. She will be keepin an eye on her Money and off Idris Elbas perfectly formed arse.

    Also most 'journalists' and wannabe celebrity SJWs don't even know that Bond is based on a literary character. Its not as widely known in the public sphere as i hoped it would. But of course some people would choose to ignore that as well to get their Agenda through which has nothing to do with keeping this franchise running.

    Well said. All media clickbait bull. Always on Bond, though.
    One never hears Elba being touted to replace Henry Cavill as Superman or Affleck as Batman. It's always Bond that gets this treatment. You never see articles advocating Gillian Anderson as the next Clark Kent and so forth.

    Well that is true but Bond is simply bigger than any superhero. He actually is a political figure to some degree as he's symbolic for british pride. You even see the british Prime Minister talk about him, he's doing short films with the Queen.

    He's so damn big that everyone wants to Talk about him, and a lot of journalists are just trying to provoke a reaction by asking stupid questions. Bond related articles generate way more clicks than any other topic.

    If you suggest Gillian Anderson as the possible next Bond people get pissed. And pissed people do a lot of clicking and commenting online and thats all The Sun for example needs you to do to generate money off of you. It's really not rocket sience.

    We are all guilty of reading these pointless clickbait articles so they will keep coming.
    Every rumored casting is Headline worthy but suggesting female or non white Bonds get our blood boiling and generates probably even more clicks than the other stuff.

    Don't kid yourselves that the press is doing any actual journalism or report on actual events happening behind the scenes. They will file most of that stuff simply under 'Entertainment' and making a quick Buck.
