no time to die

James Bond is on his sabbatical but promises to resume activities renewed, with new energy in two years.

This was announced yesterday by the producer Barbara Brocolli, who for 60 years has been the architect of the legendary agent and, together with her family, the owner of half of the 007 franchise.

After the indelible mark left by the last 007 at the box office, Daniel Craig, occupying his shoes will be a giant challenge.

In July of last year, Daniel Craig left the suit of James Bond, the famous English secret agent, who not only changed his skin, but also changed his distribution company, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM).

With Amazon’s purchase of MGM, 50 percent of the shares of the mother of all major Hollywood franchises, Agent 007 became Amazon’s property.

The other 50 percent of the shares remained in the hands of the Broccoli family, which for six decades has maintained creative control of the franchise.

licensed to kill

After almost 60 years squeezing his license to kill and drinking dry martinis, 007 wants to stay fresh and valued, so Barbara Broccoli and her brother Michael Wilson work on the reinvention of the legendary spy.

During a private, star-studded dinner in central London to honor Broccoli and his brother Michael G. Wilson for their BFI scholarships, Broccoli announced that the next Bond film is two years away from making.

Although he still does not have names of who could play the post-pandemic Bond, he did anticipate that it will be in 2023 when the big screen receives a new installment of 007.

“No one is in the running, being the new Bond, yet,” he revealed. We are thinking where to go with him, we are talking about it. There’s no script and we can’t think of one until we decide how we’re going to approach the next movie because it’s really a reinvention of Bond. We are reinventing who he is and that takes time. I would say that there are at least two years left to film, ”said the producer.

the new bond

The announcement of the owners of half of the 007 franchise opens the possibility that any actor can be the new James Bond, the only real condition is that he is British.

Last year, after the premiere of the latest saga of the secret agent played by Daniel Craig, the British press reported that everything indicates that he could be interpreted by the favorite of the character’s fans: Idris Elba.

Fans of the British agent have long wondered which actors could play James Bond once Craig left the role.

Although the production has not declared anything about it, these are the options that have been handled unofficially to be the next Bond.
