My sense of humour and enthusiasm is somewhat lessened lately
That’s why you have to have patience for the real news, my friend. And it’s not going to come as frequently as you want it. You’re burning yourself out and there’s still 12 months to go...
I think there migh be a misunderstanding that I swallow whole every rumour out there without any doubt or hesitsation. I usually just say they exist and where they're from. That being said I liked the location (even though it's in Italy) and I hope it's true.
Another couple of weeks and many questions will be answered my friends..... The people can start reading things into the spy photos that come out during filming. )

23 days until the most recent official date for the start of filming, 4 March, assuming it hasn't actually moved to 6 April.
James Bond Radio has had a non-denial Twitter exchange with Austrian body builder Ike Catcher, who was in Creed II, after being tipped off that the body builder had hinted in an Australian TV station interview that he could be in MGM's next big film.
He says: "I just had some great news a week ago for a big big project for Hollywood, just to give it scope of the range, the last movie they produced was Creed II."
The tweet is dated 8 February so that suggests Catcher got his good news abut 1 or 2 February. MGM was one of the production companies on Creed II, but so were Warner Bros. and New Line Cinema.
Creed II has a very long list of producers, so whomever "they" are, what they are producing could be a wide range of films from The Expendables 4, which Stallone is working on, to Michael B. Jordan's Without Remorse, based on a Tom Clancy book.
William Chartoff ... producer
Ryan Coogler ... executive producer
Bernardo Duran Jr. ... associate producer
Michael B. Jordan ... executive producer
Udi Nedivi ... co-producer
Guy Riedel ... executive producer
Sylvester Stallone ... producer
Kevin King Templeton ... producer
Charles Winkler ... producer
David Winkler ... producer
Irwin Winkler ... producer
I doubt Catcher's movie is Bond25, does the film need a Hinx like villain?
For accuracy's sake let'say it was www.sassilive.it
"The agreement is already defined by the end of December but in the coming days the news will become official."
I've never been to Southern Italy or Tunisia myself. I have seen photos from Tunisia and I've been to Israel and the Palestinian Territorries and based on that I think it's possible Matera'll stnd in for Tunisia. I could easily be wrong, of course.
Looking back at the Bond theme singers, the typical singer is, more likely to be female, a Grammy winner, has very high recent album sales (and streaming these days), and probably going to be American. Of DC's four films, only one, Chris Cornell had not won a Grammy the year the movie came out, but he had won them before.
However, if you look at the US publication Billboard, you can't find Dua Lipa on their album charts and you really need to be known in the US to be the theme singer - as the song is a marketing tool. The Dua Lipa album was released in the USA on 2 June 2017, and it went nowhere. For that week's album chart on Billboard (https://www.billboard.com/charts/hot-100/2017-06-03) Dua Lipa is nowhere.
Lady Gaga won Best Pop Solo Performance & Best Pop Duo last night. A favourite of people on this site, the problem is her album sales have not been great of recent years.
Beyonce and Jay-Z won one Grammy as The Carters for Best Urban Contemporary album. Obviously Titans of the music industry, my only reservations are that their music is more rap and does not gel well with the Bond sound. But, I would imagine they could be asked.
And for those hoping for a band to do the theme. Beck won Best alternative music album for 'Colors'. Here's the title song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRCA_Fo0rWA
I could imagine Fukunaga liking them.
Rami Malek is moving to London. Is it because of the weather or the voice work on the next Dr. Dootlittle movie, or could there be some other reason? :v

The filming schedule for Mr Robot completely clashes with Bond25's so I can't see how he can be the villain, unless he is a henchman and his filming will only take a few days.
Rachel Weisz does not mention DC once. BTW anyone else find it interesting that DC was not with his wife last night? Archivo007 has said DC is back in the UK now. So, why no show? And we do know that DC will be a presenter at the Oscars.
I have been surprised by the lack of any Bond presence at the BAFTAs considering start of filming is supposed to be in 21 says. The BAFTAs is a great opportunity to market the movie.
Despite going to previous BAFTAs, there was no red carpet appearance for Ralph Fiennes or Naomie Harris. And then there is Linus Sandgren, Bond25 cinematographer, who was nominated for best cinematographer for First Man - no sign of him.
Yes, the Mr Robot scedule prohibits a large role in Bond25 one should think. But that series is filmed in the US, isn't it? Perhaps he's simply expects to get so many lucrative parts in the future he needs a house on both sides of the pond? a lot of big movies are are made in Britain, not only Bond?

May be they are all busy getting ready for the start of filming on March 4th? :007)

But, not too busy for the Oscars as DC will be there on Feb. 24, only a week before filming allegedly starts.

Hmm......eh, well then maybe they are taking turns watching the baby, Danny had her for the BAFTAS and Rachel is staying home with the baby for the Oscars (it's not cheap getting a good baby sitter these days). ) I'll throw another one out there: maybe DC had some work done prior to filming and his face is a bit swollen (remember last years BAFTAS?) but should be looking good by Oscar time ? It all doesn't really matter, does it?
It's impossible to say for sure if that's Craig, but it's likely. Yves Girard is listed as assistant stunt coordinator in IMDB. He has one French movie listed as "filming " this year, but since Bond25 is weeks way from shooting I'd say that's for Bond25.

Why? Because it's a secret that Craig is in Bond25 and needs stunt reharsals? Or because it's to dangerous? There's a a big matress to break the fall just below him. You may be right, but I'd like to hear why you think so.

This tweet link below has the video embedded from that Australian TV show. Ike Catcher talks Hollywood at 4 min 40 seconds.

I googled all the Italian news stories about Bond25 and Matera and I can't find any reference to official confirmation this week.
Here is the actual story on that website, which begins with those words. It's dated 2 February.
http://www.sassilive.it/cultura-e-spettacoli/cinema-cultura-e-spettacoli/bond-25-nei-sassi-matera-scelto-set-nuovo-film-della-saga-di-james-bond-con-daniel-craig-riprese-ad-aprile-2019/
Coming days could literally mean days or it could generally mean in the near future.
I've been to Italy many times for work and leisure and tbh it looks like Italy to me. I've never been to Tunisia so I couldn't compare.
I have been to Morocco, Casablanca and Marrakesh, and they look nothing like southern Italy.
See all the winners and nominees here.

Of DC's four films, only one, Chris Cornell had not won a Grammy the year the movie came out, but he had won them before.
I think Ariana Grande must now be a front runner for the theme singer. She won her first Grammy last night, for Best Pop Vocal Album, but also important is that she is the top streamed female artist (https://newsroom.spotify.com/2018-12-04/the-top-songs-artists-playlists-and-podcasts-of-2018/) according to Spotify and she was Billboard's woman of the year (https://www.billboard.com/articles/events/women-in-music/8487877/ariana-grande-cover-story-billboard-women-in-music-2018) for 2018.
Dua Lipa has been much rumoured as the Bond25 theme singer, but she has said she has not been asked
(https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-6657611/Dua-Lipa-responds-claims-recording-James-Bond-theme.html). Dua Lipa won two Grammys last night for, Best new artist & Best Dance Recording. Why I have previously written that she wasn't nominated this year is odd, oh well.
Anyway, Dua Lipa's debut album, Dua Lipa, was one of the top ten albums of 2018, according to UK publication NME (https://www.nme.com/news/music/best-selling-albums-2018-2426467). And according to Spotify she is the second most streamed female artist (https://newsroom.spotify.com/2018-12-04/the-top-songs-artists-playlists-and-podcasts-of-2018/) after Ariana Grande.
However, if you look at the US publication Billboard, you can't find Dua Lipa on their album charts and you really need to be known in the US to be the theme singer - as the song is a marketing tool.

I don’t think that’s Daniel Craig but still nice to see.

Check it out, you won’t be disappointed
It very well might be Bond 25 but there’s no basis for claiming it’s Daniel Craig.
Is there a pic? I really want to know whether his hair will be too short again this time or whether he'll be growing it out more like in QoS.
I'd like to know that as well.
