As I understand it, Spielberg approached Broccoli after Jaws and was told he just wasn't right; after Close Encounters Spielberg tried again, but he says he was too expensive. I believe he actually met Roger Moore after Duel had become a hit, way ba…

Enemy is available for streaming on ITVX at the moment, so I gave it a re-watch. Gyllenhaal is a very flexible actor in what he can bring across on screen.

If Villeneuve gets the job, do you think we'll get Jake Gyllenhaal as Leiter?

Did he also play M? Because that would be trippy.

I do like George Sanders, he was an amazing actor with a fantastic voice (All About Eve and Rebecca are favourites of mine), but I was specifically thinking of the comment that Hiddleston's accent was too posh to be tough. I don't want Bond to be pa…

You Know My Name is my favourite from the Craig years. I do like the slower atmospheric songs, but I'd like them to alternate with faster, rockier numbers like YKMN or Live and Let Die.

Yeah, I'd like The Pretty Reckless to tackle a Bong theme. "25" sounds like a deliberate Bond audition, right down to using the phrase "die another day" in the lyrics. Perhaps not the best film to namecheck, though!

The Batman looked amazing. I'd love to see him do a Bond film. Ditto for Christopher Doyle, though I know he often left Wong Kar-Wai's films before they were finished, which might make Eon a bit wary of him.

I'm sure a James Bond/Godzilla team-up film is inevitable.

Kraven doesn't have much source material to work with. The chances of it being another Spider-Man or Into the Spider-Verse are very slim indeed, imo. Depending on his contract he might still have to play the role in other films, however, even if Kra…
