    So how do we know when development ends and pre-production officially begins?

    They are technically not in development.

    Development: this is the period when writers are hired to develop a script and a director is brought on board and the lead actor (s) is/are attached. When the script and attachments get greenlit by the studio, that’s when a project moves into preproduction.

    Preproduction:
    Finalizing the script into a shooting draft. Fleshing out the other casting. Hiring heads of departments that will hire the crews. Storyboarding. Location scouting. Sets. Costumes.

    When all this prep is complete, roll cameras.

    Lots more than this, but the above gives a guideline.

    So until we hear of a director and a writer(s) coming on board, then B26 isn’t even in proper Development yet.

    I wonder if we'll hear about rumoured screentests and who was tested

    Until a writer and director are involved I’m ignoring any rumors of Bond casting.

    The next Spider-Man is shooting in London this summer and the Harry Potter TV show has just announced most of it's supporting cast and has had a writer's room in London for quite a while. They're probably currently in the process of finding or finalising the leading kids there, plus all the other pre-production stuff as they are also supposed to start shooting later this year. So while I'm sure they are putting work into Bond, Pascal and Heyman have a lot of stuff to do in the UK...

    Based on all this I assume 2027 is quite an optimistic timeline for release.

    2030 seems likely.

    I think the latest it can be, would be a 2028 release. But let's hope for a 2027 release. I also think the scale of Bond 26 would determine its release date.

    Plus they have another film they've made together which hasn't released yet.

    It seems officially the project hasn’t moved into preproduction yet— there is, as far as the industry is concerned (and not from Insneider-types), that no writers have been attached, nor a director.

    If this holds (and IMDbpro has B26 as “announcement”, and not even “in development”), then these are very early days indeed.

    yeah maybe like 2028-2029

    Modern day Bond movie posters should use Robert E. McGinnis as a influence. Not this Bond solo or one other person crap. A mix of characters helps make a good Bond poster standout.

    To be fair I’d say the opposite: to make a poster really stand out in a crowded environment, a simple, striking image is often best. A big image of Bond alone, looking like Bond does that job. People know what a Bond film is and what it offers: the job of the poster now is kind of just to tell them there’s a new Bond film.

    You're not going to get a new audience this way.
