    This also has nothing to do with Bond 25 @PanchitoPistoles
    What do you mean it has nothing to do with Bond 25? Brexit will very likely happen when Bond 25 is being filmed. As a hard Brexit would likely cause significant disarray in the UK and a significant percentage of Bond 25 will be filmed in the UK, the topic of Brexit not only has something to do with Bond 25, it has quite a lot to do with it.

    Always wanted to visit Norway but never managed to do so. If this gets confirmed then I’ve got to book a flight for the summer!

    So was this HUGE news just the Norway announcement?

    It was a Norwegian outlet that called it such, and it is huge news here.

    Just seen this for the first time. I'm one of those who thought TWOTW wasn't that bad.

    Think this is rather nicely done. Nice montage of Craig's 4 entries so far.


    Great video, shame about the song.

    Brexit will have NO effect one Bond 25 , either on it’s production or storyline, other than a possible passing mention as was done in CR with 911.

    This fear of a Brexit effect, is just attempt a self professed troller to get people worked up. Ignore and enjoy the excitement of the moment.

    ‘The Rhythm Section’ Moves to Thanksgiving
    https://variety.com/2019/film/news/blake-lively-rhythm-section-releae-date-change-1203110803/

    In a strategic decision, Paramount Pictures has moved the release date of “The Rhythm Section,” the studio’s action-franchise hopeful starring Blake Lively, from February to Nov. 22.

    Insiders familiar with the studio’s thinking said the new date is attractive for several reasons, including the holiday box office boon. The gritty spy tale, adapted from Mark Burnell’s novels surrounding character Stephanie Patrick, is thought by Paramount insiders to be ideal counter-programming to Disney’s “Frozen 2,” which is opening at the same time.

    I have a feeling this will blow both Skyfall and Casino Royale out of the water. Every new item of news that comes out is very exciting.

    Not that I care at all about this film, but it's probably a good decision to move it to November. The rationale outlined is sound.

    Also, definitely a date to pencil in for (by that point, probably the second) B25 trailer...expecting the first with Hobbs & Shaw in August.

    I'm curious about something. Is it normally the case that studios prioritize films that they are distributing for trailers? I've noticed this with some films, where you will see the trailer premiere attached to another film which is being distributed by the same outfit. If so, I can understand Hobbs and Shaw, but given it's Paramount distributing The Rhythm Section, is it possible that another film could be used to debut the second trailer instead?

    With the pound having collapsed in value that would be a strong incentive to do as much filming in the UK as possible.

    Knives Out with Daniel Craig comes out 1 week after The Rhythm Section. Not forgetting Kingsman: The Great Game, currently aiming at a November 15 release.

    I wonder if the possibility of Norway as a location suggests a Norwegian cast member. Is that normally a requirement of an incentive? Local acting content? I suppose it could depend on whether Norway is playing itself or standing in for someplace else.

    The Snowman was filmed and set in Norway, but included hardly any Norwegians (in credited roles).
    Great, thanks. I've always wondered if countries insisted on such inclusion as a prerequisite, to help local talent get global exposure.

    I had a read through the requirements of the incentive scheme again, and there's a qualification test in which the production must achieve at least the minimum required score. In it (it's a document you can download), there's a score awarded for including different elements under two categories: a cultural criteria and a production criteria.

    In short, each production gains a score for including elements such as:
    - Storyline of the film/series production is connected with a Norwegian or European setting, place, location, architectural or cultural setting

    - Storyline, script, central theme of the film/series production focuses on current cultural, sociological or political themes or events.

    - The film/series production reflects Norwegian or European values, culture, identity, customs or traditions

    - The film makers are Norwegian citizens or citizens of EEA member states (one point is awarded for each point below, a maximum of eight points)

    (Director, producer/co-producer, lead actor/actress, supporting actor/actress, composer etc.)

    - At least 51% of the crew (excluding the positions mentioned in section 11) are Norwegian citizens or citizens of EEA member states.

    - Shooting takes place on locations or in studios in Norway

    It looks like if the production qualifies during other criterias, they won't have to include actors or actresses from Norway.

    The incentive sum is 25 percent of what the film company expects to spend in the country. Not sure if that was mentioned, so many posts to go through.

    It was mentioned a couple pages back I think, but it's still worth mentioning again. Gives an indication about what EON might spend over here (if they do). Regional funding might be included too:
    Grants given under the incentive scheme may be combined with grants from regional funds in Norway and development and marketing grants from The Norwegian Film Institute.

    I don’t think it was and you’re right. It’s a reasonable chunk.

    Exactly, they are probably planning on spending a couple hundred million kroner here.

    Yeah, that wouldn't be surprising.
    I'm quite interested as to where in the country they're looking to shoot. Western Norway is probably a likely destination. We also don't know when they'll shoot scenes; will it be during winter (in contrast to Fallout), or another time of the year?

    We don't have any official confirmation yet though.

    They'll miss winter unless the B25 shoot starts there, no? Or does "winter imagery" continue further into what we'd consider the spring months there? Assuming that would be the case.

    I would actually like it if the film had a snow sequence. I know we just had one in Spectre, but I think if they did it would sort of prove that they're trying to create their own film, rather than tip-toe around the old ones.

    I think if they go to Norway, the scouting will begin now (since they were waiting for the incentives to come through). So the media in Norway should be keeping an ear to the ground on this one.

    There were reports of scouting all over the country last year. At the same time that the news of the incentive appliance came out.

    It would seem quite bizarre to me if they haven't already scouted the country yet. They likely already know the general locations they'd like to film in and are now obtaining the required funds/permits.

    There was this article from Dagbladet published in 2017, where they interviewed Per Henry Borch (of Truenorth Norway – applicant of B25). Here he tells that the producers scouted locations in western Norway, and that shooting here was unlikely due to the (then current) incentive scheme and it's application deadline. He also mentioned the possibility of filming a PTS involving a car chase down Trollstigen, and base jumping.

    The interesting bit is that the scouting took place in 2017.

    Edit: and accoring to the videos linked by @Pierce2Daniel, Fukunaga visited Trollstigen last summer.

    So, a possible PTS car chase down Trollstigen with Sandgren's digital cinematograpgy? Yes please.

    I just googled this as well and am fully sold on that as a PTS

    Wow. Then again @RC7 mentioned they’ve wanted Norway for a long time... so...
