Having said that, he gives absolutely no context. Could've happened months ago. Or could have been something he did legitimately hear, but an exaggeration by the source in question.
Could also be that there are parties with vested interests in Bond getting any form of bad press—which we certainly saw come out of the woodwork last August. I lost count of the number of articles and opinions rushing to proclaim the Bond franchise dead, outdated, or utterly incompetent. It was appalling to see.
We'll know soon enough. And just my personal opinion, but given all that's happened, I'd bet EON would move heaven and earth to ensure it stays on track at this point.
According to Linda Netland in Filmfond Nord (a film financing fund in northern Norway), it's unlikely the production will shoot there, as northern Norway doesn't have a regional film commission – in contrast to other regions.

And according to this website (quoting a local newspaper), Rjukan and Tinn is under consideration as a filming location.

Rjukan is the location of Vemork, the power plant which during WW2 was the target of heavy water sabotage operations. Other locations include Gaustabanen tramway and Hardangervidda National Park Centre.
As for these possible locations, they look incredible and would fit perfectly into a James Bond film. Plus, they would look incredible with Sandgren's cinematography. Although if I was to choose one of them to be in the film, I'd go for the Gaustatoppen, as there's many different opportunities there. You could have a ski sequence or they can use the tunnels, and maybe even the Gaustabanen tramway itself.
Probably. Maybe (again, assuming the rumor was true) Fukunaga considered dropping out a couple months ago or something. It’s all just speculation anyway, but after Boyle left there is reason for concern. It took us a long time to even get to the point of Boyle being the first director. I wouldn’t be surprised if certain script elements/casting are undecided until after filming begins. There’s no guarantee we’ll end up with a good or bad film, but it’s certain that it’s been a struggle to get here!
Also most would agree they are both among the greatest Bond girls/villains in the whole series. So even if we have to wait longer on certain casting it doesn’t have to be a bad thing.
Don’t believe this Collider site. They also stated on one of these round table podcast shows that Tom Holland absolutely filmed a cameo for Venom.
That never came to pass.
They are just rumour merchants.
Couldnt have said it better myself.
Interesting rumour.
The quote in this article is rather short, but the original article on rablad.no might tell more. Unfortunately it's behind a paywall.
Interesting question. I guess the incentive granted the production reflects what the producers have in mind for the location. At the same time, if they don't spend all, one would guess that whatever's left will be spent on one of the other productions instead.
That’s a good question. I hadn’t considered that yet.
Damn right, Chief ;) All marbles gone.

The saddest thing to realise is that it has been worse than this before.
