Nicholas Hoult really is on a roll lately. Apart from his role as Lex Luthor in the upcoming Superman, he is also starring in the next Clint Eastwood movie, which had a promising trailer released last week. Also saw him as the bad guy in the new mo…

Aaron Pierre was excellent in "Rebel Ridge", but not sure if he would be right for Bond. However, I think he would be great as Jack Reacher, for example.

I still think they could look at some titles from TV series episodes - I mean, the last title was taken from a Columbo episode. 😉 Some titles I like: Soul Survivor Point of No Return Friendly Fire

Trailer for John Woos next movie (remake of "The Killer", set in Paris): Some solid action scenes here.

What about Australian director Mark Molloy? I haven't seen "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F." yet, but looking at the reviews, he seems to have made a good job even though it was his first feature film. Also, as he mentioned in an interview, he insisted t…

https://www.worldofreel.com/blog/2024/6/29/edward-berger-in-contention-to-direct-next-james-bond Not sure what to think about it. The sentence "there’s a new name circulating around town" doesn't sound very reliable to begin with. Also apparentl…

Apparently "Dune: Messiah" starts production in August 2025: https://www.worldofreel.com/blog/2024/6/29/dune-messiah-starts-production-august-2025 Not sure how reliable that information is. I wonder what other directors are on EONs list if Vill…

First track released from the soundtrack of the upcoming "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F" movie: Excellent track. 😎

Surprised that nobody has mentioned Lorne Balfe yet. I wasn't a fan of his work on "M:I", but otherwise he has made some solid scores.

Well SF felt very sad until the last few seconds, CR wasn't that much of a difference. This basically leaves SP with the only "happy" end (and would have been the better ending for the Craig era, but that's just my opinion).

I see TLD is mentioned a lot here and I agree, the movie would be a good template for the next movie and to start the next era. It basically had everything: A solid (relatively grounded) story, lots of action and well done stunts, thrill, humor, a …

Thank you for your information, @peter! Do you think Villeneuve is the only director they are talking to at the moment? In theory I think it would probably make more sense to be in contact with other directors at the same time. Unless, of course, th…

So is Villeneuve waiting for EON having a treatment (or even first script) done? Or is it the other way around and EON is awaiting the decision of Villeneuve, if he has time to join the project?
-
I'm still hoping Pierce Brosnan will join the cast, for example as a rival detective. 😉
-
Great to hear that Andrew Scott will be in Knives Out 3. Great actor, such a pitty he was underused in Spectre. He should have been the main villain in a Bond movie.
-
Well, I hope the next era is more my cup of tea. I really liked CR and the more grounded/darker style at first, it certainly was refreshing especially after the over-the-top DAD. But with the following films I got increasingly bored with the more s…

So are Nolan and Villeneuve the only directors out there? Sometimes it seems we are only talking about them. :-? It's funny, because I probably would go in the opposite direction and look into talent from TV and streaming shows. I'm sure there ar…

Jonathan Nolan is an interesting suggestion, @peter. Honestly I haven't seen "Fallout" because I think it's not exactly my cup of tea, but based on the trailer and the reviews he could bring some fresh ideas into Bond, even including some solid humo…

Thank you for the clarifications @peter. Yes, scheduling seems to be a very real issue when it comes to hiring a director. And a well-known director like Villeneuve certainly receives a lot of different offers and has a lot of projects. To clarif…

Disappointed to hear that Villeneuve still seems to be the favored director for Bond 26. With this rumor and with Broccoli saying in early 2023* that future Bonds would need the same "emotional heft" like Bond in the Craig era (is this "emotional he…

I think Mark Mylod is a pretty good idea. "The Menu" was very entertaining. Sadly David McKenzie will most likely be busy in the coming months. He starts filming a movie with Aaron Taylor-Johnson in June, so I guess this will rule him out.
