Skyfall - The 23rd Bond Movie
 

New James Bond Movie Canceled


Now that's really frustrating for the fans.:(

Meh. I hated Quantum of Solace. And not just for the pretentious and confusing title.

agreed but I really like Craig as Bond.

It is assumed that under the right circumstances, Daniel Craig could return as the one and only James Bond in the imminent part of this million dollar franchise.

It is also said that the newest 007 film is back.

Sam Mendes has pulled himself out of negotiations in order to direct the futuristic thriller titled The Hunger Games since the studio MGM are ready to shift ahead with the production on the 23rd Bond. It has been revealed that the shooting for the film could begin by late months of summer or by the early autumn in the year 2011.

Earlier Daniel Craig’s Bond flick was put on an indefinite hold as EON Productions was blaming the monetary troubles faced by the MGM studios. The famous studio is reported to have a total of 3.7 billion-dollars in debt.

MGM very recently announced that its lenders have all agreed to expand the time span of the company’s debt repayment which enables them to actually go ahead and start with the latest Bond flick.

The studio, which also has a venture in the imminent Hobbit film, is going all the way through a pre-packaged economic failure before Spyglass takes control. It is also said that Craig is pretty desperate to return as 007.

What was once rumored has now been confirmed: Javier Bardem will play a Bond villain in the as-yet-untitled James Bond 23, directed by Sam Mendes (American Beauty) from a screenplay by John Logan, Neal Purvis and Robert Wade.

"I am very excited. My parents took me to watch the movies, and I saw all of them, so to play that is going to be fun," the Oscar winning actor told ABC Nightline (via ComingSoon). “They chose me to play this man, but I cannot give you many details.”

By “details,” Bardem means he can not confirm other standing rumors that Daniel Craig’s 007 might finally face off against classic adversary Blofeld in the upcoming sequel. As Eric points out in an earlier story, Blofeld has been non-existent in the Bond franchise since 1981. But Craig’s entrance to the series virtually rebooted the storyline, meaning now – in his third effort – would be an ideal time to introduce a powerful villain who has been pulling the strings behind the scenes, frustrating Craig’s Bond over the course of both Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. Could Bardem be that guy? More important, should Bardem be that guy, or would you rather see him play an altogether different villain?

For now, let’s just celebrate the fact that Bardem’s down for James Bond 23, which will be in theaters on Nov. 9, 2012.

I havent watched either of the new Bond movies but Bardem is a badass so it should be good.

You should watch Casino Royale. Great Bond movie. I also like it very much because the danish actor Mads Mikkelsen is playing the bad guy, Le Chiffré. :D

But I agree on QofS sucked big time.

I don't care who's acting in it, they need to bring back the classic Aston Martin as the bond car.

I could've give less of a crap about the story, or who the actor is.

We need more classic Aston Martins!!

Just don't wreck 'em.

I've never seen an entire Bond movie...:o

I did play the hell out of GoldenEye back on the N64 though!
