Will old villains return?

slinger

What do you all think?
With the "reboot" of Casino Royale will Daniel Craig's Bond ever meet Goldfinger, Grant, Dr. No, or Scaramanga? With the other Bonds we always assumed that the latest Bond had the others history.
Did Casino Royale really start over so much that we could see the return of classic villains?
"The Dark Knight" has the Joker returning.
(Sorry if this has been discussed in the past)

I don't think it will happen, nor do I think it should happen, unless they decide to remake some of the Fleming books in a more faithful adaptation.

I don't think that they have anything to gain by recreating old villains as they would probably end up with an inferior result to the original.

Amen--the producers might do what they did in the James Bond, Jr., cartoons, giving us a green-skinned Dr. No and Jaws with a bear-trap on his face. And I'm still trying to get over Oddjob dressed as Flava Flav. . .

they should remake "Live and Let Die". Ian Fleming described Solitare as the most beautiful woman Bond has ever seen in his life so I wana see who will be cast as the new solitaire

The plot of Live and Let Die has been scraped over pretty good. There's not much left to tell of that story as it fills three different Bond movies.

Still, after all this time, there's still Bloody Morgan's treasure, which could fund quite a bit of terror if properly fenced...

I'd also love to see them do something with the packaged bomb, with the note about Bond's heartbeats being numbered...plus the 'pinky finger' bit (and Bond's subsequent violent escape), which Craig's Bond was born to do...
