In July I'm looking forward to more social media mishaps that reveal new bits of info about Bond25. After the Mark Strong trainer video hashtags I'm hoping for maybe location reveals. In July 2014, MI6hq reported that a stuntman's social media had revealed that filming would take place in Morocco, Rome and Austria.
But, August should be a lot more exciting. In 2014, August saw Lea Seydoux rumoured to be in Bond24. Will we hear more about Helena Bonham Carter??
I think the production is much more conscious of leaks now, but they can't prevent all leaks. Many people today can barely take out the trash without telling the world about it. Leaks will come.
I wouldn't mind seeing more of Jeffrey Wright's Felix in the field with Bond instead of the entire MI6 team.
Indeed and especially now when Judi Dench has left the franchise. I always expect to see Felix Leiter; he feels like an integral part of the Bond movies.
Wright's Felix is the best portrayal yet. I also liked Cec Linder.
Looking for a ROYALE Filmwear Talamone Shawl Collar Cardigan, size medium. Preferably in Europe, but the US would work as well. Feel free to send a PM!
The good old days when Bond news leaked worse than a faulty shower.
Does that mean every electronic device used on screen wont be Sony?
Yep! LOL Will give MGM/Universal plenty of scope to sell a whopper of a product placement to Microsoft or Apple. Or maybe a Chinese company in return for massive China promotional campaign?
Again, that quotes the same NY Times article as their source. It’s factually correct, they are just mistakenly reading it as new news, when it actually happened last August...
Agreed. This is not new information. In fact, as I recall, the first rumblings of this surfaced before Craig officially announced he was coming back.
LOL yeah.... IIRC the president of Showtime says they're delaying the show to accommodate Craig's Bond schedule one day, and that's all he can say.
Lo and behold, within days, Craig was on Colbert confirming the news.
Wow, why not have Bond25 set partly at Langley with Leiter? If it is a sequel to SPECTRE why not have a Bond who has left MI6 find himself working for the CIA for some reason?
I don't think Bond quit MI6 because of the bad dental plan and questionable food served at lunch. He was tried of the spy world and wouldn't have joined the CIA, despite of their great teeth.

I hope so, the new XPERIAs are utter trash. Apple feels too mainstream for James so I'd hope they actually give him a Huawei - the P20 Pro is truly an exceptional device and I'm planning to buy one myself. The triple lens camera makes the iphone X and Samsung S9+ look like toys, especially in night shots.
I quite like seeing real world 'stuff' as an element in Bond along with some ultra cool high tech. Bond would plump for Huawei if it were his choice. My favourite bit of kit was the simple velcro in LTD ( I have lobbied Boyle about it)
Of that of which we cannot speak we must pass over in silence- Ludwig Wittgenstein.
precisely, Bond is a snob and doesn't buy that massmarket stuff.
Reminds me of Bond drinking Heinekin when there's so many good beers available, as someone who talks knowledgably about wine vintages would certainly be aware. Bond probably knows personally the Trappist monks who brew the beer he drinks, and has it custom-made in small batches just for him.

Exactly ) I dont really consider Craig's Bond much of a connoisseur nor a snob. In fact he indulges in many mass marketed consumer products beyond Sony. If anything Craig's Bond is the most "mainstream" of all the Bonds. He drinks Heineken, wears J.Crew, drove a Ford Fusion, etc.
I would like to see more of the connoiseur Bond. A James Bond who enjoy fine wine and food etc.
We might have to wait till the next actor.
Why don't they use the scene from the novel CR where Vesper and Bond talks about food?
Not with Vesper, obviously, but it's a it's a good way to show that side of Bond.
or the chapter from Moonraker where M and Bond have dinner at Blades, and M keeps rolling his eyes at Bond's snobby affectations. They eat a lot of specifically described menu items during that chapter, and debate most of it. That's gotta be the single foodiest moment in all of Fleming.
These days celebrity chefs have their own teevee empires, theyre more admired than film stars or pro athletes. This should be moment for Bond to really be showing us commoners how one should eat, not telling us "do I look like I give a damn"
1) I actually think Apple would be Bond’s first choice, but have a feeling his phone would be MI6 issued anyway. Apple is very secure, whereas the heads of US intelligence agencies literally warned against using Huawei...
2) The use of mainstream brands like Heineken has always been there, hasn’t it? Fleming had Bond drinking Miller High Life...
3) I would also argue the connoisseur aspect of the character was more the literary Bond, rather than the film. Connery was a bit of a snob, but Moore wore a Seiko and used canned foam shave cream.
4) Literary or film, let’s not forget that Bond wasn’t always picky about what he ate and drank. Fleming had him eating ham sandwiches and fried chicken, after all. I think Bond was more “normal” than we sometimes choose to see him.
