She has a very interesting Instagram- it also confirms that the second unit wrapped in Jamaica on 31 May 2019 - around a month after the main unit departed. It looks as though the main unit begin work tomorrow on 9 September 2019 in Matera. I imagine that Daniel Craig is on the plane to there now.......Hopefully we get an abundance of set pictures and (maybe) even that set visit.
Also, this is the more definitive response from DC that he's retiring from Bond:
His retirement makes me more pumped for NTTD - I'm looking forward to a proper swan-song and also anticipating a new Bond in a few years. It feels like time for a proper transition. Glad Craig got another go around though. But NTTD is the correct time to walk away.
Yeah, I think his slip-ups have been few and far between.
Well, there was James King, for a while. Eventually she changed her name to Jaime King.
craig really will wear these shoes in the motorcycle chase ? maybe an homage to the clown suit in "octoussy"....
Do we have any idea when he'll be on set???
Probably on the plane right now, with coconut water or a Bloody Mary on his hands, still wearing the round Vuarnet sunglasses, laid back, fingers against his temples, over the Atlantic, blue skies all around...
Ya know, living the dream, baby.
Love the onlookers reactions.
That Triumph scrambler is a fairly distinctive bike, and we've now seen Bond riding it for the jump, and the baddie riding it on the bridge.
Does Bond steal it off the baddie after jumping off the bridge? Is that not Bond at all who jumps from the bridge (hence the necktie)? If the opposite, how does Bond get from the Aston to the bike?
I theorised this a few days back, but with Bond going from the cemetery to the bike to the Aston. I figure the cemetery scene likely wouldn’t happen post chase, but would perhaps be somewhere Bond has to flee and the catalyst for the chase. Bond dives off the bridge, acquires the bike, retrieves DB5, gets Madeleine...
All pretty baseless as I haven’t picked through the videos meticulously in any way. Also I’m theorising based on it being a PTS, which perhaps isn’t true, in which case these locations and others may all come together in a more involved, altogether longer blend of drama/action.

With a key role, Cuban-born actress Ana de Armas (Blade Runner 2049) also wins our attention as kind of a voice of sensibility as Plummer’s nurse. She told me she had never worked with so many stars in one movie before, and that it was a bit daunting, but that they all bonded working for several weeks, and doing everything together in a big mansion in the Boston area where it was all shot. de Armas also went on to work with Craig in the latest James Bond film, No Time To Die, but her time on that set was cut short when Craig got injured. So, instead, during the unexpected hiatus, she came back to L.A. and started work on Blonde, in which she plays none other than Marilyn Monroe. After this weekend’s TIFF activities, she goes back to finish that movie, and then in three weeks, will return to complete No Time To Die, now that Craig has healed from his injuries. He looked great at the premiere, so she is happy to go from Bond to Blonde and back to Bond. Whew!
So it seems that Craig's injury really threw the schedule to the wind. de Armas has had enough time to pencil in another movie and in three weeks time she is back on NTTD to finish the shoot. This girl is busy.

Second unit wrap party pics
Otherwise it's unknown. Guess more at Pinewood.
Shoes have dots, they will be CGI'd too.
Looks to me like they merely meant her work on NTTD was interrupted.

I wonder if this means they go BACK to Jamaica? Or will this all be done in Pinewood Cuba set?
Hmmm. . . but then after he dove off the bridge, he'd need to get back up top in order to collect the bike? (Am I remembering right that we saw the baddie parking it on the bridge to shoot at Bond?)
Bond and Madeleine could split up to allow Madeleine a chance to escape in the car. It is possible that Bond rejoins the chase and acquires the bike after doing the dive. Madeleine, in the meantime, has been incapacitated in the DB5 crash.
Who knows.
Exciting to piece together, though.
Exactly! We only have glimpses so far, no way of discerning for sure what will happen. Just as it should be. ;)
Very possible. Like I said, I haven’t a clue!
BTW - thank you for your continued insight and tidbits regarding the film!
Reminds of the place used in the film "The Beach"?
My fault. You were perfectly right, I misunderstand "a couple of days" ;)
He arrives today. 9th is in Matera.
