Time for a New Bond?

#neverCraig #CrExit As it says in the good book you will hear of rumours and rumours of casting rumours.The 007 casting rumour mill has been full speed since our hero Daniel Craig said he rather slash his wrists than play Bond again, and if he did one more outing it would only be for the…

Bond or Death? Craig answers the question nobody asked.

I thought I was far too optimistic with the last headline (re: Calling it Quits), and indeed there was some walk back, along with the expected undying support from EON (poor Babara always a bride at the alter waiting for her 007.). Craig has a mammoth payday from SPECTRE ($24million (£15.66m) for acting, around $6million…

Is Craig Calling it Quits?

Call it the curse of OHMSS (Spoiler SPECTRE is essentially a remake of OHMSS). Lazenby walked away from the role before the movie could be released cementing his time as bond before it really began. Craig has made noises that Spectre is his last. He has made similar disgruntled noises in the past after each…

My Bond is Not Enough

Some of his most loyal fans and supporters surly felt sucker punched.  Pierce Brosnan: My James Bond was ‘never good enough’ Actor, who played Ian Fleming’s secret agent in four Bond films, describes his portrayal…

Facelift; “The Whole Truth”?

  A few months ago Daniel Craig ,your favourite actor and ours, without a word of warring dropped out of the small independent production “The Whole Truth” mere days before filming was supposed to start. This understandably upset the everyone involved who’s schedules and perhaps livelihoods were thrown into chaos. In one sense it was…

Wildlife photographer update

The Foraging Photographer posted an update to her blog explaining a little more about the situation, we have updated our original story to reflect this. From what we have read it does not seem the Military Byelaws in place at Hankley Common actually cover what the MPs were trying to enforce. While it is true…

When filming moved to Hankley Common, near Elstead, Lucy Browne a naturalist photographer began following the developments in her blog, The Foraging Photographer . She got some astonishing photographs of the Skyfall set being constructed along with a…

Bond faces criticism over ‘cynical’ funeral scenes

Some understandable criticism for Bond 23’s mimicking of a real life funeral ceremony has erupted. Not to treat this situation too lightly, we do not know how it will appear in the movie, and after this public drubbing it may well never see the light of day. Discuss this in our forum: Bond faces criticism…

Movie icon Burt Reynolds weights in on James Bond. Once considered by the studio & Guy Hamilton as a replacement for Sean Connery. Burt talks to GQ about Cubby Broccoli approaching him for the role, his refusal and later regret. In Bond lore there is another legend about Cubby resisting the studio’s pressure to hire…

Ben Whishaw to play youngest Q?

The Daily Mail & The Guardian are reporting Ben Whishaw’s role in Skyfall is Q (Of course the source for all of this is based on a tabloid story from the Sun.). The character Q disappeared from the silver screen ten years ago, as sadly we must note so did Ian Fleming’s and Cubby Broccoli’s…

James Bond filming stalls again

Following up on the Bond 23 news and rumours…. Well there hasn’t been a lot to talk about, Daniel Craig was talking Bond some at a few Cowboys and Aliens press functions but the news from the home office was notably lacking. Although from the Cowboy and Aliens interviews we did learn a few things…

Heartbreaking news; troubled singer Amy Winehouse was found dead in the UK home today. Amy Winehouse was rumoured to be the top contender for the Bond 23 theme song after missing out on singing the Bond 22 / QOS theme because of her addictions. A true tragedy. Our heartfelt condolences go out to her family,…

Craig ‘Gagging’ To Play 007 Again.

  You might be asking yourself how he can miss playing a character he never actually played on screen? But never mind that now. The big news is the man who brought us the name ‘Quantum of  Solace‘ says the new script is ‘fantastic’! Although I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the last…

Bardem & Fiennes: Too Good To Be True?

Following up last weeks rumours; there has been no official confirmation of  casting of Bardem, Fiennes, or Harris since the tabloid the Daily Mail published their story last week. This week Sony has refused to respond to the ‘rumors’, notably with no expectation of forthcoming official announcements. Last week Eon stressed there was ‘no confirmation’…
