artnewspress : Here’s everything we know so far about the 25th James Bond film..
When is the new James Bond film out in the UK?
James Bond will return to cinemas for the 25th time with Daniel Craig reprising his role as 007.
The official US release date was revealed to be November 8, 2019.
There is no UK date set in stone – but we know it will be EARLIER than in the US.
These dates could be subject to change, as The Sun exclusively revealed on April 26, 2018 that the new film’s release has been delayed so Daniel Craig can help his pregnant wife Rachel Weisz.
Who will direct the new James Bond film?
Danny Boyle has revealed that he is working on the latest Bond script which means he’s tipped to be the director.
Speaking to Metro US at a screening of his new TV show Trust, Danny Boyle confirmed his involvement in Bond 25, explaining: “We are working on a script right now and it all depends on that really.”
He added: “I am working on a Richard Curtis script at the moment.
“We hope to start shooting that in 6 or 7 weeks. Then Bond would be right at the end of the year. But we are working on them both right now.”
What is the title of the new James Bond film?
The new film is titled Bond 25 – since it’s the 25th film in the franchise.
The script has been written by Neal Purvis and Robert Wade – who have worked on the last six films.
It is believed to be based on the 1999 book Never Dream of Dying by US author Raymond Benson.
Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli are producing.
Who is playing James Bond in the new film and what other cast rumours are there?
After much speculation – and an infamous quote when he said he would “rather cut his own wrists” than do it again – Daniel Craig confirmed in August 2017 he would play Bond one more time.
Speaking on US TV, the star said: “I have been quite cagey about it. I have been doing interviews all day and people have been asking me and I think I’ve been rather coy.
“But kind of felt like if I was going to speak the truth I should speak truth to you.”
Craig went on to say he had known he would be playing 007 again for a “couple of months”.
Naomie Harris is expected to return as Moneypenny, Ben Whishaw as Q and Ralph Fiennes as M, although no official announcements have been made.
