  • You can't make a high budget film without a release date agreed. I've seen nothing online to suggest Amazon has a Bond 26 release date in mind. Pardon my repeating myself but B Broccoli recently said "nothing is happening yet." If that's her hone…

  • Daily Mail is now reporting ATJ is not the new Bond. They reference the BBC source. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-13214707/amp/James-Bond-producers-denial-Aaron-Taylor-Johnson-new-007.html 🙄🤭

  • Lots of 'ifs' but if Johnson is the next Bond, if Nolan is the director, if the powers at be at Pinewood are prepping Bond 26, if Amazon and Eon have agreed a November 2026 release date.... Barbara Broccoli was lying to the press. That's not her bei…
  • Despite Broccoli's recent comments about nothing happening, I guess Amazon would put gentle pressure on Eon to get things moving so a November 2025 release is possible. I dunno. If you were a tad cynical you could make the case these 'Bond news i…

  • The timing feels off. Mi6 reported in February 2024: Barbara Broccoli was in attendance. Asked by Baz Bamigboye for an update on the 26th James Bond film and casting the next 007, Broccoli was politely non-committal. "No”, she said, “there’s …
  • Maybe the date of signing of the contract was not disclosed to the media. Can't find any information online.
  • If this doesn't happen the source for this 'news' is gonna look very silly. I suppose Aaron Taylor-Johnson could be possible. Maybe Eon haven't found any other credible candidates. It's possible Amazon have put pressure on Eon to get the casting …

  • Variety website has reported Christopher Nolan got around 100 million dollars for Oppenheimer. If that figure is accurate I can't imagine Eon wanting Nolan. Be far better to hire a cheaper director. Use the saved cash on the budget. https://vari…
  • There's more deep fake wacky stuff on that pesky YouTube thing....
  • He's probably too old and I don't think he looks the part. Maybe he can play the villain or maybe not play any role and Eon cast based on suitability not on 'who's hot this week'. :-S
  • Madame Web is regarded by some film critics to be the worst superhero film ever. However, it opened to bigger box office than Argylle. ;)) So no matter how shit*y it is... Marvel/Disney can say to Apple "na na na na na!"

  • I think you can argue there are no A listers anymore. I can't think of any A lister under 50 years of age. Few actors in the internet era (let's say from the year 2000 and on) can open a film on name/screen presence alone. If the A list term doe…

  • Streaming does make money if your product doesn't exceed revenue coming in. What I mean is...(these are hypothetical numbers)... if you have 1 million subscribers and they're paying 7 dollars a month that's 1 million x 7 x 12 for one fiscal year. …
  • I edited my post and removed that part. I thought my comments were a bit too negative. I was suggesting Amazon could take Eon to court if there were a lengthy delay but that's a worst case scenario and very unlikely to happen. Why would Eon want to …
