Not like way picture is made. To digital/too good mabey. As people know i have a problem with digital filming of Skyfall. Pictures feels a bit like it is film in front of green screen. Inspecialy the directer on first one.
Ah, you've got a point, old man, Cary looks like he's been digitally inserted into that first pic. :)
Remember what Christoph Waltz said to Mirror back in January 2016, that he will return in TWO more Bond movies - but 'only if Daniel Craig does too'. Alson The Sun published that the bosses bid to lure Daniel Craig back to 007 role with 2 in 1 Bond film promise. Producers say they would shoot two movies at once to keep the superstar happy.
Now, while the first unit is filming NTTD in Matera we have at the same time the second unit with a scene No. 253 in Sapri. So, is the footage of the movie more than 3 hours or does this scene in Sapri belong to the end of the movie or it really is what ggll007 says that both movies are being filmed together?
In April Fukunaga said that BOND 25 was going to be filmed in Jamaica, Norway, Italy and at Pinewood Studios in London. But nevertheless they have been in Scotland, on the Isle of Wight in England and even Greece has been mentioned many times.
October is comming, they are filming since April, we don't know when they will end and in five months we have not seen the character of Rami Malek, we do not even know his appearance or his name either.
Are the two movies filming back-to-back? I don't know, but it would be a good strategy and for me a great decision. First, because it is the best way to take advantage of Daniel Craig's physique and because the Bond-SPECTRE-Blofeld story doesn't have just two movies.
;)
And NTTD will have at least a 135 minute runtime, I added up the locations time allottment
Nothing has been confirmed, in this regard. For every argument that it is a young Madeleine, in flashback, there are equal arguments that it is not. Regardless, Madeleine is most definitely old enough to have a 12-year old daughter. Lea is 34. Her character in 2020 could easily be 36 or 37. I don't see an issue there.
As I mentioned, the biggest head-scratcher with this "flashback" idea is that we are going into the head of a supporting character. It means that Madeleine's story is SO important, that we need a visual representation of it. A film does this to provide emotional weight to that character's past. So, from a narrative standpoint, this makes her backstory and viewpoint central to the film. This is problematic. I am not saying it can't be done (or won't be). But it is hard to imagine the screenwriters (even PWB) diving into a Bond girl's backstory like that.
Ahh... Again.. The stunt double who posted on her Instagram story at pinewood filming underwater scenes for “young Swann”? How much more proof do you need?
She’s listed on IMDB as her stunt double. Of course I’m sure it’s some huge elaborate hoax to add fake people to IMDB like, production assistant #5, or the special effects makeup guy from Game Of Thrones or a sound guy who worked on Mission Impossible🤦🏼♂️..
Here’s the text for the casting call.
“For the filming of a feature film with Léa Seydoux, casting director is looking for the following profile:
- a 12-year-old girl (age 10 to 14), blonde with blue eyes.
It will be to interpret Léa Seydoux child. Physical resemblance is very important. Your daughter must be athletic, with character and confidence. The child will have to know how to swim and be comfortable in the water. Important role.
It is not necessary to have experience to apply. The casting will take place in Paris in January.
Please apply by sending the following:
- recent color photos
- surname, first name, date of birth, size, class
- full contact details of the parents
Mention "Lea Seydoux child"
Here is what the newspaper also released...
https://ibb.co/68Kjjpm
Scenes for girl running on a lake and falling in to water (which we have on video).
So Lea is filming another movie where there’s a flashback scene of her swimming?
Pretty obvious the casting call and the pinewood release papers (shared in a Norway newspaper), confirm it.
$10,000 on it. If you’re confident let’s bet.
So it makes more sense to say she has a daughter who is 12-13 out of no where?? That makes no sense...
Do you guys not remember on the train when Madeleine said a man broke into her home and she shot him? Blofeld said he visited Swann when she was just a girl?
Obviously it’s someone from her past. I’m sure they will explain it in the film. It makes zero sense for her to randomly have a daughter.
That would be the worst plot line of all time. I mean are they going to say James Bond has six kids next?
I think you're all overthinking this way too much because of "SPECTRE". It could very well be that this stupid child on itself is a McGuffin and is not Madeleine nor a child of Madeleine. Just a child, abused and pursued for scientific reasons or whatever.
But unless EON/MGM/Universal outright says anything, it can only be speculation. Doesn’t matter if it ends up right, wrong, whichever, it’s not an actual confirmation.
I mean again it’s already confirmed..
Why would the girl upload video of her at Pinewood #Bond25, doing water scenes? Then her agent added her to the IMDB production as “Young Madeleine Swann stunt double”...
The thing is EON/MGM and universal will NEVER confirm a stunt double. Unless it’s Brad Pitt/Tom Cruise (a big star), why would they confirm some random stunt double doing water scenes?
There’s a guy named Rodrig who I talked to who is playing a Spectre agent. He’s in the film. Will not be credited.
That happens a lot. Look at the Spectre meeting scene. How many people were in that scene as Spectre agents that didn’t get a credit.
The female receptionist for Madeleine Swann had her name removed from IMDB, her agent’s assistant added her to the cast list without checking with EON and the production team. The press interviewed her and ran a story on it.
I mean again the average person who has no clue on how the film industry works wouldn’t understand any of this.
If you guys don’t want to believe actual video of the stunt team at pinewood are in the film then😂 okaaaay! Have fun!
No spoiler tags needed here.
A guy who says he would work in the movie industry said its a typical 2nd unit clapperboard, as 2nd unit is often shooting with multiple cameras.
So it would be X2 Scene 53B.
This article claims Daniel would be in Austria on Sunday, presenting the prize at a horse derby.
Kinda sounds like BS but thought I'd share it. Would be around 4 hours of traveling in one direction, he could do it in one day and return. Not buying it yet though.
On the oher hand this was posted this morning. Could be the square again or maybe it was from yesterday's shoot.
"The production are at the open-air set for filming scheduled for Friday 13 September in the British cemetery set up near the Madonna delle Vergini church in the Parco della Murgia Materana. On the set, for some scenes in the foreground, Daniel Craig will be involved in the title role James Bond and his bond girl Lea Seydoux, a double is used for the others. Therefore, shooting is not planned in the Sassi and in the historic center today."

Anyway, I'm loving the pictures! Some of the stuff we're seeing BTS is looking really exciting. Thanks for the stellar detective work guys.
I hate to break this to you, but Madeleine had a life long before she met Bond. And it possibly contains an ex-husband and child she wants to protect.
I am not arguing for this but it is very plausible.
That said: a flashback from Madeleine’s perspective is a really, really bad idea.
Might not be a flashback, quite likely the scenes are set some 20 years ago, just like GE opened with scenes set 9 years in the past.
We know for certain that the scene on the lake is ‘scene 15’ of the film.
Which means there are likely 14 other scenes in Norway prior to that chase on the lake.
I think the PTS will be shorter and less ‘spectacle’ than we expect. It’s either a Madeleine flashback or the kidnapping of the scientist.
Both have weight at the moment. We have seen more evidence to support the ‘young Madeleine’ theory - though we know Rami Malek was on set, which suggests the kidnapping.
I think the PTS will be akin to CR and be brief. Then we pick up in Matera for the first big action scene. Not to dissimilar to the parkour chase in CR.
Basically, we know very very little about this film. The end.
Dont forget that the movie maybe a direct sequel to Spectre so maybe Madeleine is not 34 as Lea is but still 29 as Lea was by then!
That was from yesterday. As I thought, filming today is at the cemetery. Lots of activity there. I'm across the canyon but can see Craig's double wearing the same brown/beige suit and blue shirt. Am told there will be an
