    that footage :O (also more of the IMAX camera in action further confirming it is indeed being used haha)

    I had the pleasure of seeing First Man in IMAX, Sandgren knows how to use the kit, so that should guarentee Bond 25 at least looks top notch.

    I agree with that barry. Can you confirm are you talking about goldeneye. Not sure what PTS stands for ?
    Pre-titles sequence.

    I'm fairly certain that
    the white mask is for CGI purposes. I reckon Madeleine (or whomever this child is) shoots this man in the face but doesn't kill him.
    I don't think that is likely. I think they would probably just cover the actual face in dots as they did with Waltz in Spectre if that were the case. I think the Mask is really a Mask. Which makes me curious why he wears it as neither Quantum nor Spectre operatives ever wore any.

    yeah, thats not a flashback then. Has to go form precent to past to be one, so theres only brief moment in ohmss its happened then. I hope its not a flashback in bond 25

    I agree with you on that one.
    The dots on faces are what they use for cgi. that mask looks too cool and detailed to not be part of the shot. looks like its damaged on one side, most likley from the shooting or struggle in the chase.

    Therory on the face mask...
    He wears a full mask when infiltrating the house, and is smashed in the ensuing fight before the chase out onto the lake

    I'm not surprised this is a flashback/past event scene, although I'm not keen on it very much. Just as I thought, it didn't make sense to film the death of a child in a Bond movie, as it was rumoured earlier.

    Just watched through a segment on God Morgen Norge that aired yesterday. During the coverage of the Bond production they spoke to a James Bond fan who was in the area, who had spoken to some of the security guards. One of them hadn't signed any confidentiality papers, and could reveal that
    he had spoken to the young girl we see in the video posted today, and that this is a Norwegian girl – not British as first believed.

    Looks good.
    I agree, the girl's jacket looks very late 90's, early 2000's. And the girl, with the very blonde hair, looks like a young Maddy Swann. Might not be a flashback though, the film could simply open in the past - like GE did.
    It does make sense that this is a Maddy flashback, especially since Christensen is Scandinavian and it is Norway.

    I dont like flash backs sometimes, especially if thats the case with this one. looks amazing, but can someone tell me, what previous bond films have contained flashbacks ? ?
    OHMSS. Briefly.

    Oh right, thank for that. So it's only happened once then in the franchise. I think thats because it does take you out of the film a bit, and personally i prefer if this scene isnt one.
    If you cna get some more leaks on whether the girl is madaline or not, it would rule that out
    The whole PTS of GE is a flashback.
    I wouldn't say so. It starts in the past, sure. But, it chronologically is built up to the then-present day. That wouldn't be a flashback.

    Agreed, but you have it in CR.

    Wait a minute. who said
    Mr White is returning, ? he died in spectre

    Also, I mentioned there will be a connection with all the other films, even dating back to casino and i think im correct.
    Mr white has become a thorn in 007's back from the start

    Wow...
    does anyone think the masked man looks like a young Mr White?

    Yes,
    but if thats the case, then it would rule out madaline as the young girl, because he wouldnt be chasing his daughter

    Also, what if title is called
    The Pale King

    No, that can't be it!
    Using a white mask as chroma layer in a white background? That's like wearing a green shirt in front of a green screen.

    That Dua Lipa stuff was already uncovered earlier this month.
    Wouldn’t they use dots on the face like they did in Spectre if it was going to be CGI’d?

    images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTVRRHgc5KbKmbWn2i-TsPFNmPyJD69_EUGYpRE8zwvySdj5vl2V8cK56S6

    Personally I think the disguise the villain is wearing is what we see in the final movie.

    No, it's a time jump after the main titles (to give 006 time to set up Janus). They repeated the same trick in DAD.
    I think it's fascinating if...after the--shall we say, tepid--critical reception to SP that Eon is not doing their usual (DAF, FYEO) pivot away from the previous film. Instead, they seem to be doubling-down on the Madeleine backstory.

    the video clip is a good indicator about the tone on the movie. Looks very dark to me, more like a John Carpenter movie, hard to think of anything so dark within the Bond series

    Adding to the comment about the God Morgen Norge segment:
    During the interview a car with a car trailer comes driving along the road the reporter and the guy interviewed stands by.

    (not really a spoiler or anything, but why not)
    On the car trailer there’s a big metallic tank, which the fan suggests might contain (or to be filled with) liquid nitrogen – possibly to create smoke, fog or similar.

    He also mentions that he met and spoke to Barbara back in 2008, and mentioning Norway she apparently said that bringing the production over here was something they discussed now and then – and that it would happen. She kept her word!

    Could the...
    ...guy in the mask be Rami Malek’s father? Because it can’t be Malek himself because that would make no sense.

    Why do everyone think that this is the PTS?
    The clown chase scene from OP was right after the main titles. This could be as well, leaving:
    the action setpieces in Italy for the PTS.

    If
    Mr white returns somehow, has to be a flashback if so,

    it could be called
    Untitled.png

    Who said he is returning though, doesnt make scene ?

    Definitely not

    And there’s been nothing to say that he is.

    But isnt here refereed to as that ? and how can he return ?

    Why doesn’t it make sense @Gareth007?
    The flashback is clearly long before he died and separated from Madeline’s mother. She mentioned that she killed an intruder in her father’s house when she was a young girl. This is no doubt that very moment.

    Because Baz said it was part of the PTS in a recent report.

    But the guy in the mask
    looks like mr white, if thats him he wouldnt be chasing to kill the girl who is madaline, thats his daughter ?

    There's no way thats him if the girl is
    madaline
