  • It's funny we haven't heard much about the leading Bond girl yet. We know that they were/are loking for a British actress but nothing else. My theory is that they had someone specific in mind, asked her if she is interested and she accepted the role…

  • We have known for a while that Bond 24 will me shot on film but what if it ended up being partially shot in IMAX 70 mm? How great would that be? Only a handful of feature films have been partially shot in the IMAX format so far, like The Dark Knight…

  • This is my favourite bit from the article: "I’ve heard from several sources that Mendes almost went down on his knees to persuade Purvis and Wade to return to the Bond fold. The director had a lot of making up to do, I was told." This confirms th…
  • As a non-British person I would love it if Scotland chose independence but it won't happen. The NO vote will win.

  • I suspect this car chase will be very different from the the one in CR and the one in QOS. There is no way Q would let Bond drive a car without gadgets. ;) Also, I'm sure the gadgets in the car won't be over the top since Sam Mendes is the director …
  • I would be incredibly disappointed if Quantum reappeared but I know it won't. Sam Mendes is more clever than that.

  • MayDayDiVicenzo wrote: The 1980s were my favourite decade when it comes to Bond. I couldn't disagree with you more. Bond in the 80s was bland, boring and uninspired. No TSWLM, a GE or a CR for a whole decade. Allowing John Glen to direct 5 …
  • Zekidk wrote: The franchise almost died in 1975 because they tried the "drama"-approach, with TMWTGG, If TMWTGG is a drama then it's the worst drama of all time. I think Bond movies shouldn't be action movies, a Bond film should be a myster…
  • MrBond wrote: My hopes are still up for Emmanuel Lubezki as the DoP. Look no further then "The Tree Of Life" or "Children Of Men" to see that he got the talent! It won't be Lubezki. Hoyte Van Hoytema is the cinematographer of Bond 24.

  • Creasy47 wrote: @PanchitoPistoles, what makes you believe it's confirmed? It isn't confirmed (if it was, I would have posted this in the Bond 24 News thread) but I trust my source.
  • There is a pretty good chance Hoyte Van Hoytema will be the cinematographer of Bond 24. Hoytema was the director of photography on Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and Her. He finished shooting Interstellar with Christopher Nolan last December. Treat this …

  • I'm not worried about the delayed filming at all. Don't forget that the filming on CR didn't start until February 2006! There is no reason to think the release date of Bond 24 will be pushed back. What I'm worried about is EON hiring Purwis &…
