    Charlie Rose did an interview with Mendes a couple of days ago. The interview's main topic is Cabaret, the latest theater production by Mendes and will air tonight. Hopefully he will say something about Bond 24. :)

    An excerpt:

    It'd be way too suspicious for the head of MI6 to die, and Mallory stepping in the role only for his assistant to die shortly after.

    Did anyone watch this interview the other night? I don't live in American, but is there any way our US cousins could see if they could find it somehow because I think it's a near certainty that Mendes will talk about SF and Bond 24. Thanks!

    Seeing Rose and Mendes there in the youtube screencap makes me think of the word association evaluation in SF.
    Rose: "Bienvenu."
    Mendes:"Welcome."
    Rose:"Bond 24."
    Mendes:"Done!"

    This just in:

    Barbara Broccoli confirms that John Travolta will be Bond 24's villain; 'Come and Dive' title rumour is actually closer to the truth than we think

    Now let's discuss. Did this come as a surprise?

    Jean Reno has just made a TV show here in France that ended 30 minutes ago, he was there to promote Avis de Mistral, a French comedy.
    http://www.allocine.fr/film/fichefilm_gen_cfilm=221540.html

    He gave one scoop : he was in talk to do Les Visiteurs 3, he had read the script, everything was fine, but for a schedule conflict.

    It's a French mega-hit franchise those US version was a major fail, you probably never heard about it, but here it was really big. But the trouble was he had a schedule conflict because at that time he would be playing the bad guy in "the next Bond" ("le méchant dans le prochain James Bond", his words). The French interviewers only kept on asking him about the first part of the scoop alas...

    I'll give the link of the repeat of TV show when it's online (usually very late this night or tomorrow). It'll be somewhere on http://www.d8.tv

    This Jean Reno stuff is actually real, or another April Fools?

    Why

    He was Creepy and brilliant in Mission Impossible

    Although I love Giancarlo Gianinni, I think Reno would have been a magistral René Mathis.

    April fools joke indeed. I tried to make it realistic, but well, here nobody knew Reno really just had been on TV :)

    Everything but the Bond reference is true indeed (so Jean Reno just did a TV show a few hours ago, and gave the scoop about Les Visiteurs 3), I just replaced "I'm still having to solve some issues with the producers before actually doing it" (yes, actors can talk about this here :) ) with "I'm having a scheduling conflict with Bond" ! Sorry for the Reno fans !

    To forgive me, here's an anecdote he revealed that could interest international readers. One day he was called to be on the set of Mission Impossible to shoot the rat scene. After a plane travel from France just for the day of shooting, after the make up and so on, Tom Cruise arrived and said : "Brian (de Palma), today we don't shoot". And Cruise left at 9am, nothing was shot that day.

    2cxuqty.jpg
    "It was 9am"

    About 100.000 Euros lost for nothing, Reno estimates. He thinks it was because of a rendez-vous with Kubrick.

    And Reno did an April fools joke in the show ! He pretended to be upset to a joke on him and left the show for a few seconds, only the MC was aware of the joke, the rest of the team really felt something went horribly wrong (it shows you can make successful April fools day jokes on April fools day !)

    "I like you guys, but now it's too much..."

    Now back for 364 days of nothing but the truth (and some opinions :) ).

    I literally almost went ahead and updated the thread. Luckily I read the next page first.

    Just got so excited and so disappointed.

    Well, even if he said it on April 1st, it´s a wonderful plea to Eon to call him for Bond 25 :-)!

    He really should be in a Bond film.

    He would have been too distracting. Too obvious a choice. Giannini has a certain elegance that is lacking in Jean Reno.

    Reno would've been great. There's still hope though, lads. Chins up and all that. ;)

    The link is dead right now, but I found indirect quotes from an old interview in which Jean Reno said he turned down the offer to play Renard ! "I didn't want to play this character who feels no emotion". He has "no regrets".

    So don't wait for Eon to ask him again, I think. Hm, Reno & Marceau in the same Bond... well we had Amalric and Kurylenko later on, Eon is not practising French bashing !

    An example of an indirect quote (in French)

    The original interview (but it gives an error right now, I could not read it yet, I'm afraid multimania is totally dead though)

    Sam Mendes is currently scouting locations for Bond 24

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2596511/BAZ-BAMIGBOYE-Wow-What-Cabaret-act-Michelle.html

    In a side note, Mendes is currently directing a revival of 'Cabaret' in New York with Michelle Williams. I'm desperate for him to cast her in Bond 24.
