    I think the interview with AP that was reprinted by The Independent and badly reported by The Guardian was the "talking about the future." They know any public appearance by them spurs Bond questions and so they dealt with the issue before the event.

    As for Mescal, if you look at the "red carpet" photos for the event the other rumoured Bond candidates there were Nick Hoult and Andrew Garfield.

    And there was also this guy, Harris Dickinson, who is in Steve McQueen's Blitz. But he was in The King's Man, and he's only 28 years old.

    @Someone I wasn't talking about the interview published last week. Ajay Chowdhury is the co-author of Some Kind of Hero: The Remarkable Story of the James Bond Films. He's also a lawyer and his knowledge of the franchise is quite impressive.

    I thought from the beginning his assumption was very unlikely, but there's a major difference between a genuine announcement (title, release date, director, actor...) and the fact they could be currently working on the development of the next film. Sometimes, there's some truth to false assumptions. Do you see what I mean?

    I've met Ajay, I know who he is and I bought his tome of a book.

    Your post said that Ajay had said some sort of information might be expected at the Governor's Awards. I was pointing out that BB and MGW gave an interview to Associated Press days before the Awards and IMHO that was their way of heading off the sort of speculation that comes with their public appearances, hence it was unlikely anything would be said at the event.

    Now we know at the awards they said nothing but we got the cryptic comment from DC.

    I was surprised at how emotional BB got during her speech. Even DC looked surprised at one point.

    Interesting Express article, it supports the Christmas Sony Amazon/MGM Bond deal announcement that Sci-Fi Trek Youtuber claimed was in the works, along with a Stargate reboot.

    Interesting Express article, it supports the Christmas Sony Amazon/MGM Bond deal announcement that Sci-Fi Trek Youtuber claimed was in the works, along with a Stargate reboot.

    The announcement it's referring to was the speech at the Oscars they were giving yesterday, which they didn't say anything at.
