Casting the next James Bond isn’t the only task on the agenda for the producers of the 007 franchise, as Skyfall and Spectre director Sam Mendes has decided to pass on the torch and see what other filmmakers can do with the property for Bond 25. And, according to Tom Hardy (Mad Max: Fury Road), the […]
Idris Elba thinks he’s too old to play James Bond
Before names like Tom Hiddleston, Jamie Bell, Sam Riley and Aidan Turner entered the mix, it seemed like Idris Elba was the clear frontrunner to succeed Daniel Craig in the role of James Bond. He was the choice of then-Sony co-chairman Amy Pascal, the bookmakers’ favourite, and had the backing of former 007 Pierce Brosnan […]
Five studios reportedly vying for Bond 25 distribution rights
Given the popularity of the franchise and the box office success of recent instalments, it will come as no surprise to hear that there’s an intense amount of interest in Hollywood with regards to the distribution rights for the James Bond series, following the conclusion of Sony’s four-picture deal with the release of Spectre in […]
Daniel Craig “just about persuaded” to do Bond 25, Tom Hiddleston “too smug and not tough enough” for 007
The million-dollar question of whether Daniel Craig will or won’t return as James Bond for the 25th entry in the long-running spy franchise continues to roll on, with Page Six reporting that producer Barbara Broccoli has “just about persuaded Daniel Craig to do one more Bond movie.” This comes after Daniel Craig reportedly turned down a […]
Daniel Craig, it’s okay if you let Bond go
Tony Black on Daniel Craig’s future as Bond… We all knew this was coming. By we, I mean the legion of James Bond fans and aficionados who have followed the bizarre media whirlwind that seems to forever cascade around 007 himself, Daniel Craig. The Daily Fail (sorry, Mail!) apparently claimed Craig is done – that […]
The Crossover Films They Should Make But Probably Won’t
Neil Calloway suggests some crossover films that should be made… Despite mixed reviews, Batman v Superman: The Dawn of Justice had the highest opening weekend for a superhero movie, enough to guarantee another instalment at least. There’s apparently a 21/22/23 Jump Street meets Men in Black movie coming soon. What are the MCU movies if […]
The Bond Cinematic Universe Is A Bad Idea
Neil Calloway thinks more films set in the Bond Universe should remain on the drawing board… Of course there is talk of a James Bond Cinematic Universe; I’d put good money on someone in Hollywood holding a meeting about whether there should be a La La Land Cinematic Universe. Bond is possibly the most iconic […]
Tom Hiddleston says 007 role would be “an extraordinary opportunity”
With speculation still rife as to Daniel Craig’s future – or lack of future – as James Bond, it seems that Tom Hiddleston has thrown his hat into the ring to take over the role as 007, stating that it would be “an extraordinary opportunity” and that he “would not take it lightly”. “I’m a […]
Pierce Brosnan wasn’t too impressed by Spectre
It may be raking in the cash at the box office, but James Bond’s 24th adventure Spectre has received a mixed reception from fans and critics. Flickering Myth’s Anghus Houvouras thought it could very well be the worst Bond movie, and it seems that former 007 Pierce Brosnan isn’t much of a fan either. “I was […]
Is Spectre the worst James Bond movie?
Anghus Houvouras on Spectre… Sweet, sweet hyperbole. Where would we be without you? Let’s just put it out there: Spectre was terrible. A lazy, lifeless, sloppily put together excuse for a 007 outing. It had all the elements of a 007 outing: action, espionage, scenic locations, beautiful women. However, none of it seemed to click. […]
