    MI6 have confirmed there will be NO press conference just exclusive pre-prepared segments for two news networks:
    https://www.mi6-hq.com/news/fans-likely-to-be-disappointed-by-bond-25-media-launch-190423

    Ouch

    This is a shame. I imagine we will get the press release Thursday morning with al the juicy details.

    Wow. After 5 years of radio silence and all the drama of delays and a director bailing this is what we get? Never mind how the fans feel, this doesn’t seem like a great way to build hype for a film. Maybe they realized they can’t compete with the buzz around Endgame and Game of Thrones. This just seems so strange.

    Indeed. And I think we'll see a simultaneous posting from @007 on Twitter with the title reveal. The only question is what time...

    ....in fact, for maximum global exposure, I wouldn't be surprised if that happens at a sensible hour -- like noon -- tomorrow.

    EDIT: Purely guesswork from me. No info otherwise.

    This picture is one for the Bond History books.

    Finally!!!

    With that stubble those beige jackets and trucker hats, Craig and Mickey G look like twins. Perhaps Mickey G will be also filling in as Craig's occasional stunt double?

    He does make cameos. Maybe this will be his last one.

    Craig's hair looks a bit longer in the back under that cap. maybe he's grown it back out to his QOS length?

    What do these pre prepared segments consist of , footage of Craig’s previous 4 films? Will there be a photocall at least? Can’t understand why eon aren’t getting us hyped.

    They look like truck drivers.

    Maybe there will be a scene like in SUPERMAN II in which Bond gives up his licence to be with Madeleine (a.k.a his super powers), they go into a crummy diner and he gets his a$$ kicked by a local trucker bully (played by Mickey G). The television is then turned on where he discovers Blofeld has taken over the world. Bond realizes the error of his ways and he has to walk back to MI6 HQ in the snow to get his licence back.

    It's also had a bit of color done.

    But it did have live-streamed video beyond two television programs. Also, reporters attended the event and got to ask questions after the live streaming portion was over.

    What happens if after all this, it’s polarizing and gets mixed reception. Fukunaga has never made a film this size and I don’t think eon can afford anything less than a great film at this point.

    So be it. Off to BOND 26.

    Despite no conventional conference planned I’m going to stay positive. As long as we get title and main cast news that’s what counts most.

    If the reveal truly is really restricted to lame coverage with GMA and GMB, I will have been extremely disappointed. Seriously, is EON stuck in 1998?

    I somehow doubt MI6's reporting this time, @peter source did say that they were having the press conference in Jamaica!

    A Spectre like press event is cool but as long as we get the title, cast, extended crew, and maybe locations in a press release, I"m fine with it

    So this 2-day broadcast special via GMA/GMB doesn't look like it's complementary to the press announcement, but rather the substitute. Ok then.



    EDIT: Beat me to it @Pierce2Daniel.
    I wonder what happened between @JamesPage and EON. MI6-HQ never posted snarky tweets like this during the making of Skyfall and Spectre...

    I don’t think the issue is between MI6-HQ and EON. The tweet suggests that this press approach is more Universal’s doing than EON. I think that Universal has done some major changes in it’s press approach compared to how Sony did it because Universal has shut everyone out so far but I believe @marketto007 mentioned that he had a good relationship with Sony.

    What??? I meant that the snarky tone of the tweet is what indicates something might have happened between EON and MI6-HQ.

    And the tweet ended with “Universal really knows how to pre-market a Bond film...” so it looks like it’s more Universal than EON

    Yes but the snarky tone seems directed at Universal and their handling of this, not at EON.
