Nothing yet.... that's the problem lol.
A Bond 25 thread became something else entirely ... let's stay on track.
what?
come again.
Paraphrasing Ras Al Ghul from Batman Begins.
There was talk in a Deadline article earlier this month that Barber was looking into the possibility of distributing the film solely.

With this news, I'd start to consider that some of the other rumours surrounding the film may have credence. Maybe MGM want to get Bond 25 out sooner rather than later, especially since they are clearly betting big on it.

India
South Africa
And
Greece
Like I said I think we should be looking at a smaller budget which may also attract the likes of Danny Boyle....
And yes, smaller budgets seem like that's what will happen now.
Song's distribution deal was pathetic and no other studio in this current landscape would be dumb enough to settle for the same or a similar deal so MGM are doing it themselves; which is for the best.
So far, this is very encouraging news and hope this is step 1 of many encouraging steps.
The thing is, DC is waiting for the script to be ready, and then decide if he's in or out. Everything depends on that. And also, if Craig is, in fact out, there's no reason why his management team wouldn't write an statement regarding his decision to move along after all these years.
And about TH. I believe is all bs, all media buzz. There's no director for B25 yet, so how on earth he would have done the screen test without a director? Only if Martin Campbell tested him? :D
BTW, this is only my humble opinion on the recent news. :)
Indeed, the fact that MGM may become a solo distributor of James Bond again since 2010. It may distribute Bond 25 in some countries for example:
USA/Canada
South America
Japan
Except for other territories in which the British and Australian distribution rights may held by Disney (through the Walt Disney Pictures label) while European distribution may also held by StudioCanel.
That's what similar is that DreamWorks films are distributed by Disney domestically and Entertainment One internationally.
In the big bet thing it's deciding who will distrubte the bond films
BIG BET Deciding which studio will distribute future Bond installments.
So uhm yeah never mind I am goons go back to real life someone messaged me when there is actual news
8-|
Anyway, this may not be good news. Given how much MGM seems to find itself challenged in terms of cash flow, Bond 25 may end up bankrupting them again. With MGM fully in charge of everything, the Bond films could become fewer and further between than they already have been with Sony propping everything up.

This photo is real? @Germanlady?
Yes, it's from the Stronger in Press twitter account.
There is also this article from Sky News about it.
RE: MGM - can they afford Craig?
Can they afford Bond?????!!!
On the ropes and forced to a reasonable budget might be the very best thing for EoN.
