  • I think the Ritchie story is true. We know EON meet with lots of directors. On Spectre they met with Morten Tyldrum, JA Bayona, Rian Johnson, Nicholas Winding Refn, Ang Lee, Christopher Nolan (one of several meetings, apparently), Shane Black, Tom H…
  • I understand people's backlash to my comment. i was deliberately trying to be inflammatory and hyperbolic. I understand there are key pieces of iconography that are loved and should be respected. However, I'm not attacking the GB's positioning in…
  • @Thunderfinger @TheWizardOfIce @IncompetentHenchman Thank you all for your kind words. I have to agree with @TheWizardOfIce with many of the points he's raised. (Also you're right in your deductions concerning the title of the thread) It's a s…
  • Does MGM Chief, Gary Barber, not want Daniel Craig to return? http://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2016/09/james-bond-daniel-craig-150-million-rumor I'm sure Vanity Fair check out their sources, but I don't think Barber would turn his nose up to …

  • Waltz is always so refreshingly honest about his performances. I agree that he really didn't get under the skin of Blofeld. I feel that is no mistake of his own. The script underserves the character immensely, it's a shame because they're some inter…
  • Radar are an unusual source for Hollywood stories. However, they are well respected in regards to more salacious reporting. They're the guys who broke the Charlie Sheen HIV and the David Furish affair stories. I don't doubt their credentials. I b…
  • Rumour: Sony secure Bond rights and have made Craig a large offer to return http://radaronline.com/celebrity-news/sony-offers-daniel-craig-millions-two-more-james-bond-films/ Radar is not a source to be sniffed at. They're very much in the int…
  • The Sun rumour feels a tad uninspired. However, it isn't implausible. I imagine MGM have a list of actors that they want for the role and I imagine that those guys are the list. However, Broccoli is in the driving seat. Last time around names lik…
  • 2 new rumours of effete boys rumoured to play Bond. Jamie Bell is the new favourite http://metro.co.uk/2016/08/30/jamie-bell-to-swap-ballet-for-baddies-as-flurry-of-bets-placed-on-him-for-james-bond-role-6099636/ Tom Hughes is Barbara Bro…

  • Though he distanced himself from Bond 25, Mendes has attached himself to a new adaptation of James and the Giant Peach http://deadline.com/2016/08/sam-mendes-james-and-the-giant-peach-movie-live-action-disney-1201809068/ The big reason I wou…
  • Unfortunately this latest "rumour" is pure nonsense. It's encouraging that most here aren't eating it up. It's clearly been made up by the poster. How can you tell? The sheer bloody optimism of it is risible. Craig to return? Perhaps? a 2018 …

  • Here's an interesting story regarding a film that isn't Bond 25. http://theplaylist.net/nicolas-winding-refn-teases-avenging-silence-will-william-burroughs-flavor-20160817/ Nicholas Winding Refn has indicated that his new film, 'The Avenging S…

  • I recently discovered a book written by two casting directors who worked on CR. Its' called "A Star Is Found: Our Adventures Casting Some of Hollywood's Biggest Movies. The women behind it had a hand in the worldwide search for the new Bond in TLD, …
  • I think Andy Diggle, the author of the upcoming James Bond comic-book, has come up with the perfect plot for the new Bond film. The essence of the plot is brilliantly timely and would be a marvellous concept to build the new film around. Here's a qu…

  • One of the things I've always greatly admired about the Bond films is there decision to not recycle characters. Any other series would have noticed the popularity of certain actors or characters and would have incorporated them into future films ad …
  • Aidan Turner is once again favourite to be next James Bond ahead of James Norton and Tom Hiddleston https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/1546703/aidan-turner-is-once-again-favourite-to-be-next-james-bond-ahead-of-james-norton-and-tom-hiddleston/ …
  • Hiddleston does show promise. I recently saw him in the Kong trailer and he looks good, once again a tad scrawny and slight. But convincing nonetheless. I do believe that Hiddles is Barbara's top choice. I feel part of the reason he has ris…
