As you can imagine I flipped, but was told that this was where Gregg was staying, and as far as my friend knew, it would not be used as a location (and I don't know in what capacity the island is being used; I only have my own ideas).
How disappointing. I'd like a good henchman.
Shame...it would have been a nice touch,if they didn't make it obvious that it was Goldeneye to the audience.
Again, really love how they're going almost all in with what SP set up instead of jettisoning it.
Is that actually confirmed as the PTS ?
Great to see Baz give us Bond fans a nice little nugget. I suspect he knows that numerous fans refresh his page on Thursday nights waiting for scoops.
Interesting updates all around. So, what can we draw from his updates?
@antovolk
Also, it seems that they will indeed be filming (at least some) of the Norway scenes prior principal photography starting next month. Baz suggests this is because they don't want the lake to thaw. I suspect they'll return to Norway later in the year to finish filming there.
Also, it seems that at least some of Danny Boyle's ideas have been kept. Perhaps the whole
I always thought it be cool if Bond retired and went to live in Goldeneye. Though, if they do return to Jamaica, I'd love a great set-piece there. Perhaps something on water?
It could also explain the origins of the character that Lupita Nyong'o was meant to be playing.
Bingo.
This idea basically confirm that Bond 25 is going in the Logan route as there is no way they are introducing a kid and giving her the entire PTS only for her to disappear from the rest of the film and not be a major character
Why do you think there will be no gunbarrel at the start?
Also this. But not dubstep, maybe some more subtle homage.
Of course he will be in it,imo of course.
I agree. Craig will be in the PTS no matter what

I notice that almost every time I hear or read the words "of course", I somehow insert "Mr. White" right after. It's odd. (but when I'm stared at... -.-')
Other then that I'm doing just fine and have to say I'm really excited for B25. We seem to have a pretty firm confirmation on Jamaica, Norway confirmed, but I am not really sure about Italy. What do we know about Italy in regards to B25 at this point?
Edit: only after I posted I saw your comment @Lizo ;)
The pre title sequences of DAF, LALD and TWINE were all set in more than one place, so why not?
Ooh, quite a bit to react to there.
"Prologue action sequence," specifically. So we know the film opens with the typical bang.
And a production crew of 500. That sounds like a full-blown Bond PTS. Can't imagine Craig's not part of it.
I'm realizing now (excitedly) this is the point where I need to stop reading every new article. We're getting too close to things I don't want to know.
Addictive isn't it ?
I would love to be able to do that.....................................................but I cant !!
Never said it would be easy. ;)
I wonder what type of action sequence we're looking at. With the historical significance of the site, I'd assume they're fairly limited in what they're allowed to do.
The architecture and terrain are certainly interesting. Perhaps another pulse-pounding footchase that takes advantage of obstacle and misdirection, a la Casino Royale...
Maybe Baz got it wrong about the PTS being in Norway. Or maybe the movie will open with a short flashback in Norway (with the same location reprised during the movie, given modern cars spotted on set) just before kicking with the classic PTS action in Matera.
This will bring tears to my eyes in the cinema.
