He may have talked but... so did Turner and Hiddleston MAYBE!! ..no script ...hardly in development so what are we casting? Nothing. No money to sign a contract etc.
I have a feeling that when all this studio stuff gets finalized, things will move very fast.
Why not a twink next like Jack OConnell or a babyface like Jamie Bell.
Who the hell knows who BB has the hots for this time. Maybe she needs a toyboy.
I fear the worst.
Yes I can see that.
According to the article, The film is scheduled for a fall start date, which puts further into question the actor’s willingness to return to the Bond franchise for MGM. Pre-production on Logan Lucky starts this weekend at the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Coca-Cola 600.
It might only be a small role. I think it's more concerning that the article says 'Purity' could potentially be 20 episodes over 2 seasons. Unless they film all 20 episodes at once, and split the release.
Don't know about "people" but I am not optimistic. I think with all the real news about Craig's future and the news we can't be sure of how much is true and the uncertain situation with EON/MGM it's fair to say that Craig probably won't return.
Personally I would find it even kind of strange if suddenly it would be announced that Bond 25 starring Daniel Craig would be in the works for a release in 2018. It just doesn't sound like a realistic scenario anymore.
Again, personally, I don't want Craig back for a release in 2019. Four years is too much if it's the same actor. It happened once and it should never happen again.
Needless to say that if EON actually knows Craig doesn't return, that they should be looking for a new actor day and night and already pre-plan the next movie. But then it's BB, who knows what that woman is up to.
When does he start filming that tv series?
And what if the general public wants an OTT film with elaborate stunts and set pieces?
I definitely think most here want to see a more stripped down Bond next, with action more clever and interesting than loud and big bang. As we've seen, so much money gets burnt during some of these larger action scenes that doing the kinds of sequences we saw in SP again, some of which didn't really hit, just isn't a smart move.
So many budget issues could be fixed if the kind of frivolous spending we saw over the action in SP were curbed, and instead, they relied on more interesting uses of action. Instead of big explosions and smashing sports cars, how about some fluid, visceral fights in the vain of the CR PTS bathroom fight or the Slate vs Bond fight in QoS? Action that's simple and straightforward that hits hard without burning a hole in the coffers. It would cause EON to think outside the box instead of repeating past approaches, and as some have said, risks usually pay off for them.
It hasn't been picked up by any network or streaming service yet.
1007% absolutely nailed it. Bang on. Finally this thinking is catching on. Well done! =D>

Then don't expect a 900+ million box office return.
Just be thankful that you weren't around between 1989's Licence To Kill and the release of GoldenEye in 1995, six years later.
And this was before the internet, so no discussions were going on. You just had to wait, with the occasional snippet of info in Empire regarding the next Bond film.
Those were the days.

How do you know I wasn't around, eh?
We've even seen that DC has said that was the most gruelling shoot he has ever done. (Something along those lines) Even if they want to continue the Blofeld story arc, they can do it without going OTT.
