Rami Malek has proved himself to be a fine actor and he will obviously be playing the villain of the peace based on his short video. I loved him in Bohemian Rhapsody, so to see what he will do for this is intriguing. Ana De Armas, apart from being a stunning woman, is another fine performer and I trust that she will have plenty of screen time. Even better, is Jeffrey Wright returning as Felix, this was a ‘punch the air’ moment for me. Another brilliant actor and a really great Felix in his two appearances so far and nice that he’ll become the only actor to play Felix in 3 movies.
I’ll be honest I know nothing of Dali Benssalah, Lashana Lynch, Billy Magnussen or David Denick (his portrait looks very henchman like) so I look forward to seeing and reading more about them as production goes on.
Daniel Craig looked like he was in decent shape too.
Did no-one on this forum spot this earlier, was it done secretly?
sound man - nil points
presenter - nil points
Craig's enthusiasm - nil points
Overall production values of live stream - nil points
The said that they were in Jamaica. So this is where the PTS will take place, unless we have a PTS without Bond.
That said, I'm more than thrilled ECLIPSE was not announced as the title. Maybe we can forget about that one, then , eh?
Still plenty of time for them to give us a Fleming inspired title.
I must say Craig, IMO looks the best here he's looked since QUANTUM OF SOLACE.
He looks damn good and the cast looks amazing. All in all I'm getting that Bond excitement back.
Agree, that looks very likely. Quality casting!
Yes it is, but in this case I suppose Matera won't be used only for the PTS. Also because filming in Norway was quite brief. We'll see. BB said first time we'll see Bond in the movie is in Jamaica.
Fingers crossed
WE MIGHT SEE HIS CATS! :D
Irrespective of how Bond 25 turns out - good, bad or indifferent - I do feel it's time for a new James Bond actor. Perhaps someone with a tad more enthusiasm or joy for the part. As I say, this is not an anti-Craig post but I feel fans should just say how they feel.
(By the way, where did the spoiler tags go?)
No, they said at the start (meaning start of the main story) we find Bond in Jamaica retired from service. I am saying the pre-title sequence is set just after SP, with Bond and Maddy and a car chase in Italy (with DB5) and then, after titles, we jump 4 years later and find Bond and Maddy in Jamaica.
The synopsis has me excited but worried. It sounds like a plot from a continuation story to an extent. Hopefully it's good. And I need to keep emphasising how great it is to have Ana de Armas in the series. She was born to be a Bond girl.
Not at all familiar with the new faces but sometimes that can be a good thing.
Everyone apart from BB and MGW looked liked they would all rather be somewhere else. Maybe getting on with the film instead of answering lame questions.
The location looks great.
Shortly after the stream, a synopsis was revealed which confirms that the film begins with Bond living a simple life. “Bond has left active service and is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica,” it reads. “His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help. The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far more treacherous than expected, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology.”

Or maybe the PTS won't feature Bond. The kidnap of that scientist, perhaps?
Felix just 'turns up' does he. Would be poorly worded even for a film with a budget equal to what they spent on that press coverage, never mind one with their budget.
If they're having trouble with the synopsis no wonder the script has taken so many writers to put it together.
But we got great news! I'm really excited Jeffrey Wright is back as Felix. The first actor to play this role 3 times. I haven't seen Ana De Armas anywhere, but she's absolutely stunning. And Rami Malek is brilliant, so I'm eager to see him as the villain.
I was surprised MGW said "I can't remember the last time we had a title when we started a film"... If I'm not mistaken, all of Craig's films had titles when they were announced/started filming.
Living a peaceful life in Jamaica and Felix come for help does not look like a PTS but the first scene after the titles! Dont forget that probably the new movie will take place today not in 2015. The PTS though could be after spectre in 2015!
I hope that Malek is not Blofeld Jr (Uncle James?) and that he is a new character. I wasn't a fan of the whole brother angle.
Still, I'm enthusiastic as always and I look forward to what transpires.
What am I missing here? What’s wrong with the phrase “turns up”?
