He traffics in sci-fi, but I don't care. Stunning visuals. Terrific use of music (who'd even think of CSN's "Helplessly Hoping" as a suitable song for a film about the end of humankind?)
I second that. As for a smaller-scale yet stylish, Dr. No-esque story, I'd kill to see a fleshed-out adaptation of The Hildebrand Rarity, where Bond is invited by his contact to join a crass American billionaire and his Stepford-smiling wife on a pleasure cruise/rare fish finding trip. Over the course of the trip and its stops along the African coast, OO7 learns that the cruise is a facade for an arms deal, but that goes awry when Mr. Krest is mysteriously killed shortly before the stop at Mombasa.

Sounds great!
Well, they aren't doing so well anymore, and Nolan is VERY much needed.
And only British.

‘Avengers: Endgame’ Helmers Joe & Anthony Russo’s AGBO To Godfather Remakes Of MGM Library Title IP
One at a time please.
Not sure if he's been mentioned but boy this guy can handle action. Fights, gunplay and car chases all top notch. He would suit Craig's Bond down to the ground.
He also made the good actioner From Paris With Love
I have yet to see Peppermint
Oh great, remakes.
I would still have been interested to see what he would have done with Bond 25...'71 was a fantastic thriller.
With 4th writer of Bond 25, Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
Because of time (2 years and 8 months after Bond 25) i prefer Bond 26 should have new directer. So Bond 26 for release in atleast December 2022.
Would he really turn around and sign on to do Bond 26 after making what's likely his ideal espionage thriller?
Better still: Bring back Marc Forster.
I believe that ship might sailed by the time of Bond 26, at this rate. He would have been the perfect guy for Bond 25, with some good experience making big budget spectalce mpvied under his belt, over a career spanning 40 plus years. Alas, it wasn't to be.
Moving ahead I think Christopher Nolan has to be the frontrunner to take over the franchise, and breathe some new life into it once Craig leaves. The guy has explained how he has been chomping at the bit to get involved, and has dreamt of the opportunity ever since he was a child. There really is no one like him around today, literally everything he makes is a smash hit on a massive scale, and one cannot say that he plays it safe either. Who would guess that a movie about Dunkirk would be an international boxoffice success? Such is the prowess of Nolan, at the peak of his powers right now. I'm more than intrigued to see what his next project will look like next year.
Probably not...
Exactly.
Plus, Cambpell will never direct another Bond movie.
Imagine a James Bond opening steadicam oner with the Rolling Stones blaring in the background?
Imagine Joe Pesci as the next Bond villain? Sick!
I love his Fast And Furious movies and Star Trek Beyond was a hugely entertaining romp (deserved far better than it got). I think he'd make a GREAT Bond movie.
