    Not really sure any of us would want to know if it was that major of a spoiler.

    No time to die, but plenty of time to fall off a ladder!

    That's taken in the Monkey Drink House. A tiny Matera coffee shop by day, a lively little bar at night, specialising in gin! Most the production team were there every night! Sometimes until 5am!!

    I heard one spoiler below on my trip from a senior source. @00Agent was with me at the time too. It's part of a spoiler but it also raises lots of questions that I don't know the answers to yet. In the last week I've told three members on here who I know in person well but kept it from here until now as I'm now back from my travels so I thought it's time to list it for everyone. It's about the Madeleine Swann character. If you want to avoid it then just look away...
    Swann will really "screw Bond over" in the film. Bond will put a lot of love and trust in her and confide in her and open up but she plays with his emotions.

    I DON'T know:

    - If she is bad/working for Spectre
    - Or if she is being blackmailed
    - Or if she just doesn't want to be with him and wants an escape

    But either way, Bond is affected/betrayed by whatever happens.

    That's all I know but I guess it's another case of this film really linking back in many ways to Casino Royale like they hinted. There will be lots of Casino Royale parallels to Vesper, trust, betrayal, as well as him joining/rejoining the service in this film.

    Now that I'm back home I'll make sure the photos and videos are uploaded one way or another this week for you all to see.

    I can't buy this, because it's is basically...
    Vesper 2.0
    I can't see EON and CJF doing that
    There's plenty of ways it could be handled differently but it's clear she has a big role in the movie and that they are not killing her off like OHMSS early on. I also don't see the rumoured wedding happening personally.

    Since the spoiler is potential and unconfirmed, shouldn’t be posted no matter what? But this Filming thread doesn’t look like the right place to post it, on the other hand.

    Let's just say it's not about the plot itself.

    I am in no way doubting the substance of her role, but...
    Double-crossing Bond? No. Breaking his heart? Yes.

    It’s about a particular character?

    How spoilery is that spoiler?

    I'd say pretty spoilery. It talks about potential events and/or characterizations that Swann will see in the film.

    We should just avoid this topic then. No spoiler tags are needed in such cases. That's what I was told. So everything is OK :-).

    Yeah well, I have these uncertainties as well. Don't know either what to do in such cases.

    I'm not saying anything here. Head mod/owner must decide. It can be either lame or somewhat a biggy. It's that difficult in my view.

    FYI, a major spoiler (such as a character death or major plot twist) should still be in spoiler tags. This does not include speculation.

    @GertGettler as per the comment by @jake24 on page 1 of this discussion.

    Please continue to use spoilers for such comments even in this discussion. It's far more polite and other forum members will no doubt appreciate it. Thanks.

    The very end of the film? When the plot is over.

    In a French magazine, Dali Benssalah speaks of casting process for NTTD:


    655213_7.jpg

    The cast was released in April with Daniel Craig, Lea Seydoux, Rami Malek, and ... Dali Benssalah.

    It was the assistant of the director who first saw me in a clip for my band, The Blaze. She showed it to the director Cary Joji Fukunaga. It was intriguing, says the comedian, who grew up in Rennes. I spent an audition in Paris with the casting director and another in front of the director where I played in English, performs stunts. Ten days after, I was in England pure repetitions.

    Playing in James Bond, could he imagine? I do not realize it's like a waking dream, I loved Casino Royale, already with Daniel Craig, the realism of the fights this character both kill for a governmental organization and human, who knows problems of alcohol. He had given a broad spectrum to this character James Bond, I really wanted to see the suile!
    Right now, it's the rush. One is right in it. There are plenty of paparazzi looking to take Daniel Craig, as we leave the touring is crazy!

    I've taken the interview from his Instagram page, so perhaps someone can provide a better translation. What is clear is that Fukunaga was impressed with Benssalah from The Blaze clips. He pops in his video - especially around 2:23:

    @matt_u maybe you can PM anyone who wants to know this potential spoiler should they wish to know?
    Of failing that, please put it in spoiler tags if you post it in this thread. Thanks.

    Not @matt_u, @Benny, its @Contraband who's asking for permission to post. Even if in Spoiler Tags.

    So, with your green light, @Contraband can post it in Spoiler Tags. And we'd all appreciate it :)
