Let's reflect a bit here....all this young female agent getting the 007 number has pretty much taken on a life of its own based upon an "article" in the Daily Mail that took the participation of a new female writer to do a script polish to another level of muck raking and click baiting. EON (recent interview with Barbara) has been pretty adamant that they will not mess with the Bond fundamentals, especially Bond's gender. I realize that some have pointed out that James Bond is James Bond but the 007 number could go to anyone but IMO they are so inextricably linked that for all intents and purposes they are one in the same and interchangeable despite anything that has been established in recent Bond novels. As I said previously, I don't think (and I have been wrong many many times) that there will be another agent with the 007 number and if it does come up, it will possibly have been
given to another agent who was killed or used to tease Bond regarding the new young agent.

I don’t quite follow your reasoning here. If it can happen (007 isn’t actually his name) then it can happen. As simple as that. At the end of the last film he isn’t even 007 any more.
The Mail most certainly could have made it up: that is certainly their style. But it does fit what we know of the film, and the casting announcements this week do seem to have given us a distinct possibility. It’s not impossible, and I’m not seeing any reason why it can’t be done. That Bond is linked to the 007 number makes it more interesting, not less possible. It’d be like someone driving his car: completely possible.

It's not that they can't do it, I would just prefer they not do it and I have a gut feeling they won't. However, in trying to be a bit more objective or open, it is certainly possible that the writers could spin Bond's number being given to another in some entertaining way and ultimately have it back so there's no confusion at film's end. I am old enough to remember seeing the cover of Esquire Magazine prior to the release of YOLT in '67 that had 3 women dressed black funeral attire crying over a coffin with the heading "Rejoice rejoice James Bond is dead!" obviously a play on Bond's fake death in the PTS.....I was quite stunned and upset when I saw it as a 9 year old.
So, now we have two clapperboards for Bond25. For Spectre and Skyfall they were releasing clapperboards and the official @007 Twitter account is doing so again.
Using the Casino Royale (2006) script and leaked Spectre December 2014 draft script the scenes 15 and 78 can be found to be immediately after the PTS, for scene 15, and about 45 minutes to an hour into the movie, for 78.
For Spectre, in the draft script, scene 15 is Bond's arrival at MI6 HQ immediately after the main titles. Scene 78 in the script is when Bond meets Madeleine at the Hoffler Klinik.
Scene 15 is actually cut from the film, and after the main titles, it cuts to M dropping the newspapers onto his desk, which is at 16 minutes, 40 seconds. Bond's meeting with Madeleine starts at 1 hour 3 minutes and 30 seconds, give or take a few seconds.
For Casino, scene 15 was Mr White introducing Le Chiffre to Steven Obanno, the Ugandan rebel leader, seven minutes 30 seconds into the film. Scene 78 is at 45 minutes 55 seconds, when the sprinkler system is activated at Miami airport during the attempted bombing attack.
While people have been speculating that the Norway filming is for the PTS, the scene number, when compared with two previous DC films, does not match that. It would seem the to be for a scene after the titles.
The Jamaican scene, scene 78, could be up to an hour into the film. Usually in a 2 hour (plus) film at one hour there is some sort of major clash between the antagonist and protagonist. Bond in the light blue Range Rover maybe just before or just after this, if it is at the hour mark.
Daniel Dencik, in one of his Swedish newspaper interviews, said they would be filming in Jamaica for 10 weeks. They normally film for about seven months, 28 weeks, so almost half the filming is on location in Jamaica, and then you have the interior shots at Pinewood - which could make Jamaica related filming half of the production.
Bond25 maybe structured much more like Casino Royale, where Bond is in one location, Montenegro, for almost half the film, just under an hour.
Bond25 could have a PTS where the scientist is kidnapped, then the main titles, then the Norway, young Madeleine nightmare sequence for older Madeleine who wakes up in Bond's bed in Jamaica. Then they may have about 15 minutes of establishing Bond's new life with Madeleine and then Leiter turns up and at the 30 minute mark (typically the end of act one), Bond agrees to help Leiter. That help may involve staying in Jamaica, or the Caribbean, but either way we know Bond is still in Jamaica at 45 minutes or one hour into the film.
All I can say is, I work in an analytic capacity and review investigations on a regular basis.......and I think Someone would make a good investigator -{

I spent about five minutes starting to piece this together yesterday, but then I stopped hoping you would do it. Thanks, Someone! -{
I am guessing that we're getting another 2 hour 20 minute movie, so that is 140 minutes. A 7 month shoot is 28 weeks, so that is 5 minutes in the can for every week of filming. With a 10-week Jamaica shoot, that's 50 minutes, which also matches Casino's Montenegro film time. I am wondering though if Jamaica won't also double for somewhere else equally tropical.
After three hours of Avengers Endgame Sat night (the "Endgame" part I think referred to my backside, thank goodness for padded recliner seats) a just under two and a half hour Bond film would go by like a flash.

That may very well be the case. Don't forget when filming in Corfu for FYEO, that also coupled for Spain. I'm getting excited now that we are up and running so to speak after all the delays.

It seems strange to me that Leiter would visit Bond and the 'mission' just happens to also be in Jamaica. And now we know Magnussen is there with them as Leiter's side-kick CIA agent.
As we know the villain and his henchman have North African roots, and the early Spectre drafts, according to the Sony hack emails, included an African diamond mine, I wonder if Jamaica is doubling for sub-Saharan Africa?
Jamaica has a black population and has streets that could appear in another part of the developing world, so it could easily pass for a part of Africa IMHO.
I think the day one of filming is about 45 minutes into the film and Leiter, Bond and Magnussen (whatever his character name is) are in Africa and this is before things get treacherous - by which I expect Magnussen to betray them.

Glad this is the spoiler thread because I 100% agree with this and am certain it’ll be happening (even though I really don’t want it to because it’s a massive cliche). When I saw those pics of him on set yesterday I immediately thought that he’s going to be double crossing Bond...I don’t know, I guess Magnussen just gives off a sketchy/I’m a bad guy feel—but nothing against the actor )
I guess a mie in Britain can double for inside a mine in Africa, and parts of a mine can be buildt in Pinewood.
Someone estimates the Jamaican shoot will be about 50 minutes, and I read a memember of the Norwegian film community thought the film shot here would be about ten minutes. I used my maths skills to calculate, and that's an hour. That leaves roughly an hour filmed in Pinewood and Italy.

Felix might be just drafting in some local help, but doubling for another country is equally likely. Anyone know if that numberplate on the Land Rover looks Jamaican?
I think this scene is Jamaica-as-Jamaica. Not to say it won’t also double for some place else in other scenes. But Bond looks to me like a guy who just got off of his boat, not someone in a foreign land on a mission.

Absolutely agree, I cant see him not playing a bad guy especially after his role in Fukanaga's Maniac.
But Bond looks to me like a guy who just got off of his boat, not someone in a foreign land on a mission.
Well the last thing an intelligence officer is meant to look like is someone in a foreign land on a mission, so maybe Bond is just doing a really good job at being incognito while working :007)

I'd sooner believe the Swedish press than a UK tabloid. And didn't they say in a lot of the Live Reveal interviews that a lot of Bond25 would be filmed in Jamaica?

With a typical Bond shoot being 7 months, this whole road show could go on until the end of November.
I'm not completely sure what the Swedish means when they write: "It will be a total of ten weeks."
What is meant by IT? Is it his time working in Jamaica or is it his total shooting time on Bond25?
Felix might be just drafting in some local help, but doubling for another country is equally likely. Anyone know if that numberplate on the Land Rover looks Jamaican?
There is a white taxi in one of the shots of Bond & Felix with ‘route taxi’ written on the side, and that’s a Jamaican taxi.
I've had a look at the video and photos available and I can't see any taxi. BTW route taxi is the same in Spanish, check Google translate.
BTW I can't make out if DC is wearing a wedding ring. In some pictures DC seems to be hiding his left hand, either putting it behind himself or in a pocket.
The PTS are normally only a few minutes or 10-15 minutes at the most. I think some of that time filming there will see the Matera region double for another country, possibly North African, as speculated elsewhere.

You are aware that if you follow the picture media trail of Bond 25's production, you could end up ruining much of the film? If you see loads of production photos or some video footage it may or will spoil much of the content.
Put it another way, would you rather see Bond 25 in a movie theater or see most of it before via Twitter, Facebook, Instragram, Daily Mail website etc?
If every location is put on social media you're not going to have any surprises. I assume filming in Pinewood will be under some degree of lockdown but it's comparatively easy for a Pinewood crew member to take a photo on his phone and upload it on social media.
The PTS are normally only a few minutes or 10-15 minutes at the most. I think some of that time filming there will see the Matera region double for another country, possibly North African, as speculated elsewhere.
It was said at the press event that the film's plot starts out in Jamaica, wasn't it?

I've now seen the Daily Mail (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-6971817/Bond-25-Daniel-Craig-day-filming-Jamaica.html) story with lots of pics from day one filming and I think that as Leiter is there, I'm guessing scene 78 is nearer the 45 minute mark.
