  • A new cover of the James Bond Christmas Song for all of us to enjoy this year. https://open.spotify.com/track/1EjvX4eG6nDXIhnDjtGMWG?si=SLde0F4DS3O3cATRUs1l3A
  • I was catching up on The Great and was reminded of the actor Jacob Fortune-Lloyd. I first saw him in the Queens Gambit when he appeared to have anelement of Bond charm and quiet cool. His acting in The Great only supports that feeling. I also think …
  • I predict we will get Danny Boyle return rumours this week on the back of the 28 Years Later Trailer release. That coupled with Aaron Taylor Johnson being in the film is going to be too much for the tabloids to ignore.
  • It does seem like he has a packed schedule already. Bond26 will not be something he can just squeeze in after Dune 3. Perhaps this is the reason for his confusion as of late. It would be great to have him launch this next era of Bond but if it is no…

  • As Conclave continues to get Oscar buzz I wonder if the rumours about Edward Berger are true and EON have seen an advanced screening.
  • Is there anything to Ralph Fiennes being involved in the upcoming Edward Berger movie Conclave? Ralph has had plot input for the Bond movies on the past and if they are wanting him to continue on in the series he may have some say in who they choose…

  • The more I hear the orchestration and compositions of Tom Richards for Raye, I think this is the best duo to take Bond music forward. Tom orchestrated Raye's 21st Century Symphony at Royal Albert Hall, as well as, some of her latest singles covering…

  • I may be a bit late to this party but I think Raye would be the perfect title artist for the next Bond film. The orchestration on this concert at the Royal Albert Hall last Fall is some Bondian. I hope Barbara and Micheal were in the audience.

  • What about Thomas Vinterberg as a future director? He seems like he would direct a very character driven Bond movie, with smart humour.

  • With the Bond movies being shown daily on ITV this month and then moving to streaming on ITVX. Do we think an announcement could come towards the end of this while the movies are fresh in people's minds?
  • If it is Villeneuve I am confident we will have another film with really amazing set and production design, something I think NTTD excelled at. That is very a very exciting proposition.

  • It certainly seems like a missed opportunity. Would be nice to see that kind of release in the waiting period for Bond 26. Maybe they will tie in 4K releases or a special edition of NTTD with the upcoming Amazon series.
