SPECTRE continues to deliver big numbers in pretty much every cinema it screens in, and now as the dust settles, thoughts are turning to what will come next. The next movie in the 007 franchise is the 25th official Bond movie, and everyone will be expecting something special. With Sam Mendes ruling himself out, the director chair will need to be filled, but before all of that we’ll need a story, and a script.
In an interview with Swiss news magazine 20Minuten.ch, producer Barbara Broccoli states that work on the film will star very soon.
“We have put three years of work into Spectre. It was a thrill, but now we want to enjoy the success and the reactions of the audiences. In spring we start again.” she said.
Now, I take that as meaning from scratch, which will put the 25th Bond adventure releasing in 2019, or October/ November 2018 at a push, which would be three years on from the release of SPECTRE, and the same time frame between the last two 007 releases.
In the same interview Broccoli also commented on the Daniel Craig question. Will he come back?
“I hope we can continue with Daniel. I love him, obviously not just me but also the audience. I will try my best to keep him on.”
I guessing he’ll be back. More news as we get it.
