'Bond 24′ – Will Christopher Nolan Direct the Next James Bond Film?

Mike Sampson — Fri, 17 May 2013 13:32:04 +0000

It was just a few weeks ago that Sam Mendes officially announced he wouldn't return to direct 'Bond 24' (what's more, he said the mere thought of returning to direct another James Bond film made him "physically ill") but producers aren't wasting any time finding a replacement. But how do you top 'Skyfall' - the biggest Bond film of all-time and a movie that made over $1 billion? You hire 'The Dark Knight' director Christopher Nolan.

'Skyfall' Without Daniel Craig? Current James Bond Says "I've Been Trying to Get Out of This"

Nick Romano — Mon, 12 Nov 2012 16:30:12 +0000

'Skyfall' is finally making its US debut this week, but it's already gone above and beyond at the UK box office. Since its October premiere overseas, the latest James Bond flick has surpassed the country's sales of 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2' and has blown away the last two Daniel Craig-led Bond films, and the hopes are even higher for its release here.

But what if our current 007 actor wasn't around to bask in the success of 'Skyfall' (or 'Casino Royale' and 'Quantum of Solace,' for that matter)? Despite the film's successes, talk has recently shifted to Craig as he revealed that he -- how can we put this delicately? -- kind of hates portraying James Bond.

James Bond's Two-Part Movie Plot Is a No Go, Says Daniel Craig

Eric Walkuski — Mon, 05 Nov 2012 12:18:48 +0000

Earlier this week we learned some potentially huge James Bond news. A report circulated that 'Skyfall' screenwriter John Logan (who we know is returning for the series' next installment) had secretly plotted a two-part plot line for 'Bond 24' and '25,' which would be a rather major turn of events. Today, however, we're learning from 007 himself not to believe the hype.

James Bond Killed Lincoln?

Kyle Dowling — Thu, 01 Nov 2012 14:45:36 +0000

Who knew we were mistaken about Abraham Lincoln’s assassin all these years? Thanks a lot, U.S. History 101! It turns out that John Wilkes Booth’s innocence has been completely overshadowed by our blind adoration of a certain British spy. It wasn’t Booth who killed President Lincoln; it was James Bond! (Our apologies, John, even if [...]

POLL: Would You Like to See a Black James Bond?

Nick Romano — Wed, 31 Oct 2012 11:51:06 +0000

James Bond movies have been thrilling audiences for years, and fans are just as excited for the 23rd installment 'Skyfall' to hit theaters as they were back in the days of 'Dr. No.' Needless to say, 007 is one of those characters that will live on long after we're all gone, but the franchise still faces the never-ending task of making this secret agent character and story line just as interesting to watch as the previous films.

This has partly been accomplished with the numerous actors portraying Bond -- Sean Connery, Pierce Brosnan, Barry Nelson, Daniel Craig, etc. -- but are we now ready to see someone completely different take on the role? Are we ready to see a black James Bond?
