Well, as much as I am a fan of Daniel Craig, and how he has , generally, portrayed Bond, I think it’s time for his era to end and make way for a new incarnation. All signs point to this being a fantastic film , what better way for him to take a bow.
Also, if NTTD is as emotionally satisfying as has been purported, a return risk being anti-climatic. Go out on a high.
Agree. He has stated that he equivocally wanted to leave after SP but felt the need to wrap up the storyline created in that film. Then there's also the fact he was offered a lot of money to come back. I think now that the narrative will come to a close, we will see a new actor take on the role. No chance Craig is going to return.
...I would just like to see Cary return honestly. I may change my mind after the film, but for now I'm loving everything I'm seeing, even seeing these photos on set with him make me so much more excited for the film.
I don't even need the MI6 regulars. If you want to recast them you can. As long as Cary's on board with some good writers, I'm happy. If he wants to try and shape a new James Bond with Barbara and Michael or even Barbara and Gregg, I'd let him.
However, would CJF want too come back for a follow up. Even with a new actor. I get the feeling he's a director who likes to leave his mark and move on. Especially if NTTD is well received, it could be a case of a repeat of the Mendes movies. SF well received, SP not well received.
I guess we'll find out. If NTTD is as good as we hope it is, and CJF is up for it, then ushering a new Bond would be fine with me. Maybe he could be the new John Glen.
Everything we've seen from behind the scenes just seems a lot more positive despite the heavy backlash this film has been receiving, every cast and crew members looks incredibly excited for this film. To me, back in 2015, it felt like they were just selling the film they made, whereas this time it feels like they want us to see the film they made = if that makes sense...
...and I think Cary has a lot to do with it. He's been running the ship and all alongside the incredibles creatives on board for this film, and if this is a success should be highly thanked for taking Bond 25 on.
NTTD is looking like the most colorful film in the entire Craig era. I am hopeful it’s an upgrade over SP in every way.
A few months back, I had this scoop and posted it. It's the first time I have ever had any kind of inside information on set. In any case, he confirmed that the Scotland shoot was Norway.
@Jan1985 unfortunately our culture doesn't believe facts only feelings. Believe all accusers regardless is the message they put out. I'm surprised Cary would take a risk and not be woke. But kudos to him for not being afraid standing up against...... I will stop there.
I’d really have to actually see what they’ve done first before I ask that! :)
I'll just say this one...
TOLD YOU SO.

No, it’s in the south London area. Almost central. Nice area.
Was it you who told us or was it him?
Cary's been given access to the research material that Kubrick amassed in over two years of research. I heard this would likely be his next undertaking (although this being Hollywood and a Kubrick project, and since this has been kicking around since 1969.... But I understand that this is what he wants to do next...)
Maybe Bond will help with the "kubrick curse" and make sure Napoleon is the greatest film never to be made :-D
But as much as I love Bond, I'm rooting for this one to finally happen, specially since the Kubrick estate has been so open to it and friendly to Cary.
I heard much the same...apparently word is Timothee Chalamet has been spoken to about the lead role.
Really hope it gets made.
Also, I think it's odd that Eon din't keep hold of Sam Mendes and produce 1917. I hope Barbara stays in the Fukunaga business and gets Napolean off the ground.
I don't want to go down this rabbit hole. Seriously. But he did these things, and you're in denial if you don't think so. In fact, you're offering a counter argument with zero support. Instead, you're appealing to his celebrity status to argue his innocence. That's not good enough.
The discussion of Jackson needs to turn away from whether or not he did these things (because he did) to why. Because in many ways, he is a victim, as well. A deeper look at who he was, growing up, provides clues as to why he liked to have pajama parties with young kids (are you going to deny that this happened, as well?). He never emotionally matured beyond the age of about ten, and nobody bothered to recognize and guide him to get some help.
But back to Bond...
