Is it possible to get a Skyfall script? I have the final draft of Casino Royale that is on the internet, but what about skyfall?

    It's likely slightly different. Scenes get cut from the film, dialogue changes, and sometimes even full scenes change.

    What?! Who in their right mind reads scripts?! I have always assumed that the film Gods use their cinematic powers to create films out of nothing but thin air, where the directors, producers, crews and actors/actresses are just pawns in the magic. Next you'll tell me these two orbs in my face are for seeing. 8-|
  • QBranchQBranch Always have an escape plan. Mine is watching James Bond films.

    It is interesting to know last hour changes, deleted scenes, etc.

    On a serious note, I agree. As @JWESTBROOK stated, a lot can change in the journey from script to screen, and there may be more than a few interesting bits to be discovered if a script does come to light, whether in print or pdf form. So far all I have found are a bunch of gag scripts played up for fun, and nothing genuine.

    I did get access to a small part of the script back when they were shooting, there were several changes and scenes which were dropped (including a funny one with Silva). I think by now the person who sent me those won't mind me showing them to someone else, since the film is out for so long. If you are interested just PM me your email address @ChampionAlonso, I will try to locate the things to send you.

    I have the original script for Goldeneye, when it was written by Michael France and with Dalton as the lead man.

    I have been looking for the script from QoS but I can't find it anywhere unfortunately.

    For a time, bookstores in L.A, always had scripts for sale. Larry Edmunds and The Last Bookstore (where sex scene in Gone Girl was filmed) are probably the most famous:

    http://larryedmunds.com/
    http://lastbookstorela.com

    There is also Tattered Cover, in Denver--when I used to go there, I always found scripts (in original bindings and all).

    https://www.tatteredcover.com/

    Contact these stores and see. If they don't have it, they may be able to find it.

    SKYFALL

    The Abridged Script

    By Alex W.

    FADE IN:

    There is NO TRACKING WHITE DOT because the franchise has MOVED ON into a BOLD NEW ERA and is NOT RELYING ON THE SAME OLD TIRED GIMMICKS, NO REALLY. Instead we open with...

    INT. ROOM

    DANIEL CRAIG bursts in to find a LAPTOP and a FELLOW AGENT, both missing most of their GUTS.

    DANIEL CRAIG

    Don't worry, unnamed non-speaking role, I'll help you!

    JUDI DENCH

    (on radio)

    Leave him, Daniel! We must demonstrate that I will sacrifice any agent for the mission, it's not like we're going to demonstrate it again far more emphatically in about five minutes.

    DANIEL and spy sidekick NAOMIE HARRIS chase an EVIL GUY using EVERYTHING WITH WHEELS.

    DANIEL CRAIG

    Damn, he's jumped onto a train carrying an assortment of vehicles and heavy machinery, thoughtfully arranged to facilitate a classic bit of Bondian mayhem!

    DANIEL JUMPS into a BACKHOE on the TRAIN in FULL VIEW of the EVIL GUY and slowly ROTATES the cabin to face him, a display of tactical brilliance that results in DANIEL getting SHOT 300 TIMES!

    DANIEL CRAIG

    Arrgh, all 300 bullets hit me in the right shoulder! What are the odds?!

    DANIEL rips the ASS off the TRAIN with the BACKHOE'S SCOOP, then CLIMBS onto it and spends some time BALANCING HIMSELF.

    DANIEL CRAIG

    Good thing the evil guy went to the other end of the train, otherwise he'd have all day to finish me off.

    DANIEL LEAPS onto the TRAIN and ADJUSTS HIS SUIT and is FUCKING BALLS-AWESOME and instantly makes the movie TEN TIMES BETTER than QUANTUM OF SOLACE.

    CUT TO:

    INT. MI6 HQ

    RORY KINNEAR

    (fiddling with controls)

    Oh crap, somehow we've lost contact with Daniel but can still communicate totally fine with Naomie!

    JUDI DENCH

    What's happening Naomie? Can you catch the train?

    NAOMIE HARRIS

    (on radio)

    Why would I need to? No way will it just keep going with a gaping hole in the back, that would be idiotic. Why don't you have a swarm of military helicopters descend on our position when it stops? Then we can easily capture the evil guy.

    JUDI DENCH

    I can't do that, the "swarm of helicopters" button only works if it's halfway through the movie!! Shoot wildly, that's a far better plan!

    NAOMIE SHOOTS and hits DANIEL who plummets off a BRIDGE into a LAKE! And since her HIGH-POWERED SUPER ADVANCED SPY RIFLE has an awesome firing rate of ONE ROUND PER HOUR, the EVIL GUY ESCAPES! Meanwhile DANIEL SUBMERGES into...

    INT. PSYCHADELIC OPENING CREDIT MONTAGE
