  • This is truly rather disgusting and awful news. Paul Haggis should rightly be shunned from the film community as a result. However, I think the evidence that his contribution to the CR script was substantial. I think a lot of the more psychologic…

  • Gossip season is starting to brew up Sam Smith being wooed for another Bond http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/gossip/confidential/sam-smith-wooed-bond-article-1.3731631 I'll pass on this one EON are looking for "glamorous American…
  • Christoph Waltz has further confirmed, that despite rumours, he will not be in the next Bond film (or the one after that): https://www.mrporter.com/journal/the-look/a-merry-dance-with-mr-christoph-waltz/2709 Does that mean that Waltz is entire…
  • The same guy who has scooped a few times on Reddit in the past is saying that Nolan is in the mix for Bond 25 or 26: https://www.reddit.com/r/JamesBond/comments/7i6v6x/christopher_nolan_for_bond_25/ Also it brings up the old rumour of EON sellin…
  • Perhaps I might have an explanation why Mendes dropped out of directing Pinocchio. He and his wife have just had a baby: https://www.vogue.com/article/anna-wintour-cate-blanchett-zendaya-evening-standard-theatre-awards-2017 I pretty much doubt t…
  • Yann Demange's new film, "White Boy Rick" has a new release date. http://deadline.com/2017/12/white-boy-rick-release-date-matthew-mcconaughey-movie-august-opening-1202219966/ The film was meant to be coming next month, however Sony have pulled t…
  • It appears that someone at this forum either works for the Express or their journalists stalk these pages... The Nolan rumour makes zero sense to me. He has basically inferred that he'd only be interested in the franchise if he was allowed the op…
  • Well....is Sam Mendes retuning for Bond 25? This kinda sucks. I think SF is magnificent but SP was just a little on the stale side. Mendes wore out his welcome with that film..... However, I'd understand if he did come back. Clearly the end of…
  • Very very happy to hear that Annapurna have the rights. They are the most interesting option and I think we're going to get something v exciting from them Not sure if this is an indication of anything.......but.......very recently Megan Ellison (…
  • Yann Demange looks set to do another series of "Top Boy' for 2019. http://variety.com/2017/tv/news/netflix-british-drug-dealer-drama-top-boy-1202609880/ Does this rule him out?
  • There have been some interesting developments over the last few weeks regarding this project. Firstly, Jude Law has joined the cast and Paramount have agreed to distribute. http://variety.com/2017/film/news/jude-law-blake-lively-rhythm-section-1…
  • Daily Mirror: Okay, brace yourselves: - Monica Bellucci to return - Elon Musk has developed the story - N. Korea and the nuclear threat are part of that story - S. Africa will be used as a location http://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-n…
  • Paul McGuigan's comments last night at the BIFF screening of the film he directed for Barbara would suggest that a director has indeed been hired (and it's not him)
  • Probably not news, but it looks as though we can count out Sam Mendes for Bond 25. Baz has an article saying that Mendes will stick to theatre throughout 2018: https://twitter.com/BazBam/status/913529484107829251
  • Deadline have confirmed that Villeneuve is now out of contention for Bond 25: http://deadline.com/2017/09/cleopatra-denis-villenueve-director-blade-runner-2049-sony-pictures-epic-1202178276/ Villeneuve will direct Dune whilst developing Cleopatr…
  • I think partially the reason it's been nearly three months since word of Yann Demange being the "frontrunner", may be the Villenueve factor. Yann has done some great work on British TV and 71 is brilliant. But he is, understandably, an unknown qu…
  • Quick update on EON's activities.....it looks as though Michael Wilson is focussing his attentions on The Rhythm Section
  • I can’t help but feel this approach is about as lazy and derivative an idea as you can get for a sequel to SP’s events…. Didn’t they already attempt to do a revenge-type plot with QOS? Aren’t we just going around in circles? Perhaps, Demange has …
  • Gary Oldman would make a terrific villain. I'd rather see him go against Craig in his final Bond film, than see Waltz back. There is a note in IMDb's trivia section that Oldman was sought to play Blofeld before Waltz. Though I doubt this is true …

  • Yann is a seriously smart filmmaker. There are some brilliant choices made throughout 71 - for instance, the opening riot scene has a consistently disquiet feeling of uneasy. It's made more paranoid and intense by the sound design. The threat of …

  • I believe we are yet to see the definitive take on the character of Blofeld. He should be 007’s version of The Joker or Moriarty. Despite the lofty status he has obtained as Bond’s archenemy, he has yet to truly gain this mantle cinematically. …
