Gee, the rumor of Jane Seymour returning sounds better and better by comparison doesn't it?

She seems really desperate for work, offering to do Bond for free. :cooltongue:

That was my first thought. If it's true of course.

The word around the campfire is Halle Berry WILL come back. She'll be playing Moneypenny. :-P

Cool. And even better if Jinx had a wise-cracking robot dog called Bobo.

The Bond films rarely ever go back to the same well when it comes to the lead Girl no matter how popular. (Maude Adams, perhaps, being an exception...but then again she was never the lead girl in TMWTGG)

So this is wishful hoping from someone who's past her prime as a Hollywood sex symbol.

Anyone, quite obviously, who is on the wane would want to align themselves with a highly respected group such as Craig and the Broccoli clan as well as the most successful francise the world of modern entertainment has ever know.

Perhaps she could return in *a* role...just not in an overhyped role or *the* Bond Girl role. She is past that now.

I bet the likes of Angelina Jolie and Charlize Theron are regretting not being involved in Casino Royale (*if* they were offered anything...which they likely were not) as, soon enough, they too will be past it and will no doubt be replaced in the next year or two by whatever the flavour of the month may be.

It's a continuous cleansing thing as the plastic Hollywood gets rid of old and hails fresh 'n new.

Bring on the next Eva Green, Eon! Pleaseantly surprise us with 'fresh' in Bond 22!!!

You guys didn't know Halle Berry is set to return to the series in the next film, Beyond the Ice?

I'll bet Contact Music confirms this on its site soon.

Script: Bond 22; page 34, lines 7 and 8:

Jinx: James Bond. Lovely to see you again.

Bond: Excuse me. Have we met before?

My faith in the common sense of the Bond producers would evaporate if this proved to be true.

Hey if Jinx returns, why not bring Christmas Jones as well? While we're at it, bring back Sheriff J.W. Pepper from the Louisiana State Poleez. Also, Jaws and Dolly need to return with their love child they named after James.

This is how I would react to an official announcement about her being in Bond 22

"[censored] this! [censored], [censored], [censored], [censored], [censored]!"

...which is unlikely considering Contact Music seems to have a habit of actually using one word out of a quote an actor makes and then turning it into something completely different.

Or the entire thing is just [censored].

Either way...

Just say "NO" to Miss Berry. I also heartily recommend saying "nononononononononononononononononononono" to Miss Berry.

Strangly enough, the only movie I like her in is X-Men I.

I think Halle's role was changed by P&W, Tamahori and the producers after she got a nomination for best actress.

That nomination twisted the entire project around in order to capitalise on the buzz surrounding her oscar at a time when the producers lacked the confidence to take James Bond into the territoy they took it a few years later.

I think Berry was given certain material and the material undermined her and a fair bit of the project that revolved around her.

I think if she came back to Bond it would be in a smaller role. Speaking of which, the same could be said of Benecio del Toro and a host of others.

LOL!

I'd rather she didn't...although I'd love to see how Craig intermingled with Sgt. J.W. Pepper... :cooltongue:

I agree with Publius. That is too funny. Unlike the story that Halle might come back.

I will add, that I like Halle Berry as an actress. I think her talent would better serve another project.

Was that dipolmatic or what?
