Personally I hope neither will work on the next Bond movie. It would be way too similar to the latest movies.
Edgar Wright is an interesting option, though. He could bring some humor back and take the series in a fresh direction. However, I think they will continue with the same direction as before, sadly.
Denis Villeneuve
Martin Campbell
Cary Joji Fukunaga
Christopher Nolan
Thomas Alfredsson
Fede Alvarez
Alfonso Cuaron
Alejandro González Iñárritu
Edgar Wright
Rian Johnson
So my hopes are:
Campbell for Bond 26
Boyle or A Cuaron for Bond 27
Villeneuve or Fukunaga for Bond 28
Honestly though we know Cary has an idea for introducing a new Bond already, so if they bring him back right away for Bond 26 I’d be beyond thrilled.
If Fukunaga really is interested in introducing the new Bond and has already some ideas, which EON would support, I'd also be thrilled to see how he can bring on Bond #7. Apart from that, I fully agree with Junglist_1985.
Definitely yes to Taika Waititi he would be great or James Gunn
Jon Watts sounds interesting but I’m not so sure people would love his take on Bond no way home and Homecoming had some pretty mixed reviews. I personally enjoyed them but hardcore spiderMan fans are not that happy with him.
MCU fans yes, Spidey fans have some big problems with Jon Watts. Anyway it’s funny how many MCU directors we have been suggesting.
Having just seen Last Night in Soho, I am convinced Wright could do it. Those who would be uneasy given his usual hyper editing style, this is not the case in LNIS.
Luc Besson
Pierre Morel
Olivier Megaton
Steven Spielberg
Chris Mcquarrie
Jonathan Hensleigh
And of course Martin Campbell
I get one of the above with Hardy and a Fleming title I will be so happy
Rian Johnson (smart action is his forte) or Peter Weir (Master and Commander) might be good options
:))
You laugh but he nearly directed Goldeneye
Matthew Vaughan would also be a candidate.
Spielberg might have been a candidate back in the 1970's, but not now. Or Marrin McDonagh, IN BRUGES and THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE EBBING, MISSOURI are graet movies, and he is also a great playwright (The Leenane Trilogy, The Arran Island trilogy, Pillowman...)
I think Vaughan was considered one time (for QOS!)
I knew about Ted Kotcheff forDaltons 3rd,would have been a good choice!
Landis would have been an awful choice! Though I like some if his work, he's not a right fit for Bond!
I believe they approached Matthew Vaughn earlier than QOS, I remember reading some interview after Layer Cake came out where he confirms the producers spoke to both him and Daniel Craig and he noted 'they were definitely more into Daniel than they were me'.
