Defiance began production in September 2007, which was done so that Craig could be finished before going to shoot Quantum of Solace.
But if they start shooting by November 2017, Bond 25 would come out in 2018.
Maybe the can move the date to December 2018 then. I still think Craig can make it in time. And Bond 25 doesn't have to be a close to 3 hour movie. Make it a shorter film
Star Wars 8 is Dec 2017.
Avatar 2 is Dec 2018. That's the only compitition they would have to worry about and Avatar 2 is no way going to be as successful as the first one
You never know. Nobody expected the first to make that kind of money, either, until a few weeks after its release. If Bond released alongside 'Avatar 2,' the former would be destroyed in key markets such as China or Japan.
February would be doable. TND began shooting in April '97. It was tight, but the film was out in December.
It's not.
We're in exactly the same place we were a couple of days ago when it was all doom and gloom and it was going to be at least 2019 before we could even think about seeing another Bond film, or so it was said.
The only news we've gotten is something we already knew, which was that Mendes has claimed that he's not returning.
Actually, the second unit began back in mid-January of that year, which gave them a bigger head start than starting it all in April. From what I've gathered, the main unit started on April Fool's Day.
For those outside the UK, Paul Mason is a political writer so dont take this too seriously, he is looking at our modern World through Bond's eyes. Interesting read, one of the few decent journos left.
Not all that important. Non-American money spends just as good as the stuff stateside.

Even you have to admit its looking a lot brighter now EON has got its skates on.
What has changed between the other day, when 2018 was deemed impossible by many, and now?
Well, we know an awful lot more what EON is up to now, that's for sure. Even you will admit 2018 is looking brighter now?
Yes, also you have to consider that the film will probably be a much less complication shoot this time, compared with SP. They could probably whip through it in under 6 months.
2018 looks the same as it always did. It's a possibility, one that can be met if EON and MGM get the legal stuff taken care of by the end of 2016 or at the latest early 2017, which I've stated all along.
But, we've learned nothing in the past few days to indicate that it's more likely, or less likely. We've simply learned what we already knew, that Mendes claims he's not returning and that Barbara Broccoli runs EON. These were things already known to those who follow EON.
And that EON are in advanced talks with other actors. Come on, now, admit it. Things are falling into place. Besides a big setback, 2018 is full steam ahead.
The distributor, who will be putting up money, will insist on a say, even if it's not a definitive say, in who takes over the role and the direction of the franchise moving forward, just as Sony did when they took over.
