    I'm not against the buzzcut. It makes Craig look a little more lethal and militaristic. Though it always looked a little bit like a fresh haircut that needed a week or so to really settle. I'm confused why they went back to this style, considering how difficult it is to style when it's so short. You just have to leave it flat.

    I suppose there wasn't much Mendes could do when Craig turned up on set with that hair. He was able to get the perfect hair in Spectre, which I still feel is peak Craig.

    Though, from this photo, it looks as though the buzzcut from SF is back...personally, I couldn't care at this stage. I just need to know that they're filming!

    Though I'm 100% certain that is Craig in Norway. Personally, I'm more annoyed by the choice of tie! I liked the skinny fit ties from SF!

    Yeah, it looks like someone made up to look like Craig. The forehead gives it away for me.

    However, it could just be the way he's standing and the loss of quality from zooming in.
    I was just about to say the guy in the picture has a massive forehead.

    The guy looks like more like Kenneth Branagh than Daniel Craig haha :D

    The forehead is huge. And you're absolutely right....

    Guys there no way that's Daniel Craig... and if you look the guys standing around him are also wearing suits. They're probably drivers for actors or a stuntman but it's definitely not Craig.

    Just look at this profile shot... His nose!

    ...that's certainly not Daniel's honker.

    I don't think it is, unless Craig has had work done to make his nose bigger.

    I don't think it's the lighting, it looks like closely clipped sides to me.

    Last summer I had an effed up hair cut and the only way to fix it was to have it blended so close it was practically a buzz cut. Got a lot of compliments on it, actually, and I thought it looked more Craig's in LOGAN LUCKY. However seeing that new photo, I think it looked like that.

    Maybe Craig was intending on sporting a cool classic Bondian hairstyle? Yet, he popped into his fave barber shop for a light trim, only to get it effed up right before filming?

    With all the delays this film is famous for, Barbara certainly wasn't going to delay shooting yet another month just so his sides could grow back. Hence, Bond will be going for the Popeye The Sailor look in B25.

    I think they're drivers. For cast members or important members of the crew.

    Chauffeur's love a good suit.

    LOL!!!! Craig is probably relaxing somewhere getting ready for his first day of filming, looking as great as he did in CR.

    The same suit as who? We haven't seen Craig on set, and he doesn't look like Craig.

    He looks like the guy you'd meet at the pub after a funeral.

    I'm having a joke . Producers use a drive as the stunt double to save some money. Because it looks like daniel to a degree.

    Now this is something more concrete than our chauffeur.

    That definitely looks like Mark, and it's exciting to get something regarding the crew.

    Blimey,good spot there @Denbigh !!

    That has put any ideas to bed,Dan the Man is not in Norway.
    And why would Cary depart and leave Craig there ?

    As people are saying he is probably a driver,makes sense.

    (At least it was something interesting and topical to discuss on this thread,for once haha !!)

    Found a photo of Craig from 6 days ago.. He is wearing a newsboy cap but you can tell his hair is definitely super short.

    Not SF short but I could definitely see that guy being a stand in or stunt double.

    If there’s two things about Craig that stand out it’s the short hair and the nose. Doubles will typically have over exaggerated features similar to the actor.

    He could even be a stand in just for test shots etc.. Or far away shots. Maybe Daniel will film the scenes in the studio and they are just using a double/stand in.

    Think about it, they have done this before..

    Judging by this photo, Karl Malden looks to be appearing in Bond 25.

    All of this talk made me hope that we see another Double-Oh in a PTS again soon. But in the vein of Octopussy where the agent is assassinated by the villain as opposed to the agent and Bond working together.

    I wonder if they'll brooch the subject of Bond's replacement after SP? Did they retire the 007 number or was it simply reassigned? Lots of potential there. Perhaps Bond's successor falls in the line of duty.

    I'm just spitballing here, it's unlikely they'll go that route - but another agent who doesn't look too dissimilar to Bond tickled my imagination a bit.

    Sam Mendes announced production on his latest film and it seems he has pinched a lot of Bond alums for the film, including Callum McDougall:
    https://deadline.com/2019/03/sam-mendes-1917-nears-production-mark-strong-colin-firth-benedict-cumberbatch-more-join-cast-1202584246/amp/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter&__twitter_impression=true

    Probably most revealing is the news that Mendes has hired Dennis Gassner has his production designer. This will likely explain why Gassner has been in London recently on Instagram. His involvement in '1917' seemingly rules him out for Bond 25.

    From my understanding production designers are integral in pre-production as they design the set and stick with the film throughout shooting to ensure the sets are properly built and decorated. Since '1917' and Bond 25 will be shot concurrently I suspect Gassner is unavailable.

    Which means that Mark Tildesley could still be the production designer....

    Seems to be the case, have you seen the picture above that really looks like Mark?

    Tom Newman could do this then move onto Bond 25.

    It certainly could be him. Extremely hard to tell from that distance. You can usually pick Tildesley out of a bunch by the way he dresses. It's harder to do that when they're all dressed for the cold!

    But yes, that person looks similar to him.

    To be honest it could just be another short older man who has a penchant for big scarves :)

    But I would not be surprised if it was actually him.

    With particularly strong 007 hair, one might add. Hope it stays that way next week.

    +1. A little bit of length and some styling, and it'd look very nice.
