#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…
It’s a M related spoiler which most paying attention to the development of Bond 23 have suspected for a long time. Fist a little bit of casting news The Daily Mail reports the lovely Tonia Sotiropoulou is being touted as a new Bond Girl, she had tired out for the role of Severn, for which…
Historically the Bond producers leave the theme until the last minute so it is very hard to tell if there is anything to these rumours in the first place. After the April Fools Day gag by the Sun about Craig supposedly opening the Olympics was taken so seriously by the rest of the medial blindly…
File this one under strange next to the tinfoil hats. Besides the idea of Ms Broccoli’s EON Productions cooperating with the CIA on anything like this being extremely unlikely bordering on insane, the activities described sound like average goings on at a movie set. A shocking allegation hit Turkish media about the new James Bond…
Continuing the Broke Bond story, er, I mean the Budget Cut story from last week this item from the BBC seems to add credence to the earlier story. It appears Team EON once again were flirting with local leaders to get favors and permission granted only to walk away at the last moment. This has happening often enough in Spyfall to raise more than few questions about the production. A movie production firm has pulled out…
‘Highly places sources’ are telling The Mirror Bond 23 (AKA Spyfail) is facing major budgets cuts, so much so they’re canceling all location shoots except for Turkey. Remember all the talk of exotic locals like India, South Africa, China, Bail? Well not so much, if the Mirror is to be believed Turkey is it. It appears…
New Rumour is that David Arnold is out for Bond 23 composer (AKA Spyfail 😉 ) , Thomas Newman is rumoured to be Arnold’s replacement. We had wondered how Arnold would balance his duties at the 2012 Olympics with his previous commitment to Bond, apparently he can not, or was not asked back. Discuss this…
Perhaps the second worst kept secret of Bond 23 since the title is Ralph Fiennes role allegedly as the new “M”. Suspected by fans since he was cast, apparently confirm by MovieWeb. No secret Judi Dench (who we do love) has been keen to leave the series for quite some time now, and Bond 23…
The silly season of unconfirmed rumours is not over. Last week we got a tip Gallagher was going to be the choice for Skyfall theme song. A few days later the story was everywhere, today Noel Gallagher completely disavows the story. I am inclined to believe him since he does not know who MGW is…
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,…
Another one bites the dust if MTV news is to be believed. MTV caught up with Ifans at San Diego Comic-Con where he disavowed any involvement with Bond 23. This is reminiscent of the Anthony Hopkins rumors a few months ago (**Mr Hopkins was shocked he to find out he was the subject of Bond…
The British tabloid the Mirror had a strange story about the 007 producers demanding Craig get back in shape for Bond 23, which is getting close to go time. The Sun claim the producers think Craig is looking “too scrawny”, to be fair a lot of people have noticed this over the last few years…
A new rumour has surfaces interestingly not mentioning Naomie Harris or Ralph Fiennes. The story goes that Bond 23 director Sam Mendes talked Rhys Ifans and Javier Bardem into appearing in the next Bond adventure which is to be filmed primarily in South Africa. Most American fans might remember Rhys Ifans best as Nigel ‘The…
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’…

Most entertainment places are reporting Naomie Harris and those two other blokes as confirmed for Bond 23, a new development is the involvement Amy Winehouse who is supped to be in the running for the new Bond theme (she was in…
Following up on the Naomie Harris casting rumour British gossip columnist Baz Bamigboye is reporting in his Daily Mail column Harris will be cast as the next Moneypenny. The only thing for certain is the statement from EON and Harris separately confirming nothing has progressed beyond talks. ‘A spokeswoman for Eon said that Naomie had met…
Whilst in Prague accepting the Crystal Globe Award at the Czech film festival Dame Dench made the rounds charming everyone in attendance. She even made to time to socialize with the ‘normal crowd’, something she didn’t have to do as a VIP guest. It is the kind of classy move we have become all too…
