Walking over a villain casting sounds very unlikely honestly. Especially over an unknown.

What's odd is that Craig was also against it and his name was used in the press release when he was the one pushing for Doyle in the first place.

 

Maybe he just couldn't stand the idea of acting against a  6'6 villain.

March 2020 is empty right now save for Mulan.

I am calling November 2021;I think Eon really is wedded to a November opening date.

The real news in the Variety story is it's not just replacing Boyle as director , they are pretty much tossing out the Boyle (and his writing partner) screenplay as well.

The Variety article says the Boyle script was the basic problem, since that is being tossed as well.

Yay, more Purvis and Wade.

 

I can't believe that the duo who gave us Die Another Day (and the weakest part - the script) are the ones that survived that movie and a decade and a half later they're still the fall back for EON time and time again.

Yeah, I thought that was odd that Craigs name was in the dispatch.

Spectre felt like a natural ending to the Craig Bond era anyways

Dalton didn't jump - he was pushed out by John Calley at MGM.  Cubby still wanted him but MGM wasn't going to finance another Bond film with Dalton, period.

 

Goldeneye with Brosnan was originally intended as a summer release but then True Lies came out and they had a few similar plot and set pieces so the script went into re-write and the date was pushed to November.

 

Since then Oct/Nov/December has been a goldmine for Bond WW so there's no reason they should change the date.

 

 

But True Lies came out the previous year unless Goldeneye was delayed over a year of you meant summer 1995

Speculation is high that #Bond25 has moved off its release date after Danny Boyle’s exit, but sources tell Deadline that it might be wishful thinking by rival distributors https://t.co/sjjQMdqC7h

Quote

Nobody is talking, but I’ve heard an approach was made to Jean-Marc Vallee, who followed Dallas Buyers Club with the limited series Big Little Lies and Sharp Objects. I’ve heard his participation is unlikely due to scheduling. Another name I’m hearing as a real possibility is Baby Driver‘s Edgar Wright, who has said he would love to do a James Bond. The other two helmers who were on a short list are Hell or High Water‘s David Mackenzie and Yann Demange, the ’71 director who helmed White Boy Rick. So there are good filmmakers who are available and if any of them accept, chances are Bond 25 would keep its date, I’m told.

If this doesn't move then I think it's going to be a really rushed project for sure.

Yes, it was meant for summer of 1995 and pushed to Nov 1995 for rewrites with filming starting Jan 1995

they are lucky Mission Impossible 1 moved out of November 1995 which allowed Goldeneye to replace it

well if they get the director and script ready by December or even January then yeah they can still make the November release date if they really want to

Penis Bond is so 2015 anyway.

 

V Bond all the way.

If this is shit it won't matter, I'm perfectly happy with Craig's four-movie stint from Royale to Spectre. People may quibble about the quality of two of them but for me there probably won't be a better Bond run ever again.

Something should really just move to November 8 now since this is clearly facing too many hurdles to make it in time.

Wonder Woman 1984 will move to the 11/8 date if Bond is delayed.

are we getting a female black Muslim James Bond for Bond 26?

I'd love to see Sean Bean play bond.0

 

The thought of Bond with a Yorkshire accent and every other word being "Bastard" is too funny.
