I don't think he likes to stuff around when making movies.
And here's a little song i wrote especially for him. :)
Oh Danny boy the pipes the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer's gone and all the flowers dying
'Tis you 'tis you must go and I must bide
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy oh Danny boy I love you so
But when ye come and all the roses falling
And I am dead as dead I well may be
Go out and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an ave there for me
And I will hear tho' soft you tread above me
And then my grave will warm and sweeter be
For you shall bend and tell me that you love me
And I will sleep in peace until you come to me
Also, the Reddit user name-drops J.A. Bayona, the Spanish director currently working on Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, as a friend/colleague who happened to read the latest Bond 25 script. This would imply that Eon are hawking around their early draft to other directors for feedback or input that weren't even on the shortlist and that had no prior involvement with Bond 25. And for what? Just to see if what they have is up to snuff? Again, why? There's no mention of why J.A. Bayona would receive an early draft of Bond 25. It's just a name-drop to try and lend some credibility to his irrelevant buzz.
This is what I was afraid of. I wonder how long it’ll take for pre-production to begin if April has now been bumped.
Anyone think it’s possible the movie could still be released by Nov. 2019 if this is all true?
If Boyle is working with a smaller budget on a more intimate, less action heavy story then they should make up the difference. Production is pushed back, but if the production is smaller and can work quicker (which I am lead to believe is common with Boyle) Then you get the same result. If they have spent this much time and effort trying to bait in a name director, then odds are they are handing over a lot of creative control. I don't think this will be a normal production like EON is used to doing. They are doing a lot to keep Craig happy IMO.
Aside from Craig, Harris, Fiennes and Whishaw. I want to see roles for Vincent Cassell, Frieda Pinto and Johnny Lee Miller (perhaps as a Whitehall/MI6 Staffer as a nod to is grandfather).
;)
I would also add TB to that list, but apart from Spectre each and everyone of them harvested a good deal of money-plus at the box office then his predecessor.
I really don't know, if I can get over another bully Bond.
Give the character a chance and let him be suave and sophisticated. At least a little!
Loved that.
But at least Hardy would be livelier than Craig.
Agreed on both counts. Pinto has been hardly memorable in anything I've seen her in. Khan on the other hand was a hoot in Inferno, the last Dan Brown adaptation. I instantly thought 'Bond film' when I saw him.
Jonny Lee Miller could play anyone and be cool. For instance Cassel's villain's ten cloned henchmen.
My concern with him is more on account of looks than anything else. I think we've deviated enough from the template. Time to get back to traditional.
That's not really saying much.
Good one! :D
Yes please. Shannon was excellent in The Shape of Water. He is wonderfully theatrical.
I'm not from the UK, but anytime I see an article from Express, it's THE most clickbait-y, generic drivel I've ever sifted through. They formulated that whole article off of a Reddit post of someone pretty much going "Hey, Michael Shannon would make for a cool Bond villain!"
Having said that, the guy shines in everything I've seen him in. He's got such an imposing, threatening presence when the movie calls for it, I'd love to see him as a Bond villain.
I know the site is clickbait-y, but this particular idea is very cool. Shannon was the ultimate, all-American villain in Shape of Water. I’m sure he would be a memorable and scary force in Bond as well. Him against Craig sounds terrific.
I'm not sure.
Holy hell, I forgot about that movie, but he was brilliant in it. I recall one bit with him and Rogen in a car, maybe? Don't recall what the situation or line was but it came out of nowhere and I couldn't stop laughing. May need to rewatch that one soon.
