Two words: gene therapy
Not to sound like a dbag...
Why are people complaining about spoilers etc when they are filming the movie right now and we are discussing the “PRODUCTION OF BOND 25”...
If you don’t want to know about the production or be spoiled I suggest avoiding this thread..
Why even browse the production thread?? I will never understand people who follow the production of Bond but don’t want to be spoiled.
Mods it’s really time for two threads now that we have set photos/videos and leaked information.
BOND 25 DISCUSSION (No spoilers)
BOND 25 PRODUCTION (Spoilers)
It’s that simple, everyone wins.
No. Just cast because he looks similar.
Did Sean Bean not play the same character in 1986 and 1995?
In the scenes filmed, Malik has a mask. they don't even need to CGI a younger face on him.
Let's say it's been 15 years (the girl looks 14 or around that age) from the flackback to present day. I think they could pull it off, just barely.
What? Madeline is 29. The girl looks 14. They have to simulate only 15 years. Rami's character's age can be ambiguous.
@CASINOROYALE yeah those were the glory days that I wish we would return to something really frightening 007 has to stop.
@Ottofuse8 yeah like he joined Spectre and was recruited by Blofeld
Madeline is definitely older in the film.
Where did they ever list her age?
Craig is 51 and she is 31. That’s actually pretty creepy...
So she was 17 during the events of Casino Royale?! GROSS.
I thought there was a prop ID for Craig’s Bond and he is actually around 44-45 in the film? I could see Swann being 35-38.. That’s less creepy.
I mean a 51 year old running around with a 31 year old? 20 year difference? He’s in “love”?
The wiki here gives her specific date of birth. They must have sourced it from something official. https://jamesbond.fandom.com/wiki/Madeleine_Swann
Madeline's age in Spectre was 29, and was born in 1989. That means when she was 14 or 15, it was 2003 or 2004.
Malik is 37 right now. Let's say for fun they up his age to 45 in the movie.
That means in 2003/2004 he could have been 30. Not a huge stretch of the imagination.
Actually, I'm pretty confused how they came up with her exact date of birth.
I'm not complaining. It's just that putting a spoiler tag around a comment takes a couple of seconds at most. I really don't see how that's so difficult. I'm sure plenty of people reading this thread will just want confirmation of basic stuff like "Shooting is underway at (insert location here)", "he/she is rumoured for a role" etc.
Isn't Cary Fukunaga's GF like 20 years younger?
Well EON seems to be hooked on the past so wouldn't be surprised lol just joking
I’m joking, obviously. Just adding to the slew of nonsense.
:O
I’m on an iPhone. It’s really annoying have to type out a spoiler tag to every reply because we are going to constantly be discussing the set photos, leaks etc etc...
Wait so you don’t want to be spoiled but you are looking at rumors and set photos etc? That doesn’t make any sense..
I am trying to get the mods to add a separate thread for spoilers and no tags and make this one tags only..
It would make discussion a lot easier for everyone..
Also I just find it weird that Bond in Casino Royale is 38.
She would’ve been maybe 16-17..
Just imagine Bonds future love was in high school during casino royale.
I have no issue with her playing a character that is 35-38 that would make her character a college student during Casino Royale..
If they add a flashback scene that would just be awkward because they’d have her playing a 12-14 year old and Bond is a grown man in his early 30s...
What kind of iPhone you have?
No.
@Minion why not should I ask Barbara lol
Quantum was really Spectre and now Spectre is really Eclipse DAMN IT EON!!
You didn't read my comment. I wrote that I'm not complaining, but that there might be others that want to read the thread, at least having the option to read what's in the spoiler tags or not – and not necessarily have spoilers being the first thing they read when visiting this thread.
I'm sure the mods will look at this if they find it alright to have two production threads.
No argument there. Always imagined Madeline as a character in her 30's when watching SP. If she wasn't meant to be 30+, then that only adds to the many, many issues I have with that film.
No. Madeline is 29 in SP. Lea was 30. But close enough.
