[The Ghost Who Walks]

http://www.jamesbond...?lala=0&aid=414

The owner of the Norwegian website jamesbond.no, John Berge, had a brief chat with MGW at BFI last weekend, where, among other things, the following is said:

Interviewer: But when will the film be released, will we have to wait until 2011?
Wilson: Yes, I can confirm that. We need more time and don't want to stress things.


I don't want to translate the entire interview, since it's not my work, but Wilson also dissapointingly says there is likely no more Fleming material they can use, since they have "already used most from that source".

i dont mind them taking extra time. although i did love quantum of solace it does not hurt to have more time (although it definitely didnt help when they took more time for spider-man 3).

as for not having much left from fleming, there is a whole book called you only live twice that has not been used.

[Quantumofsolace007]

Alright this makes sense I'm disapointed in some of it but Bond 23 has a date.

[DamnCoffee]

Fine by me. I'd rather have a 2010 release date, but nevermind. I think it's right to seriously plan this one out. I really hope it's summer, though.

[MattofSteel]

No big deal. 2009 is half over, 2010 will go buy in a flash. And by Jan 2011 we'll be into filming, details. It's one year, really.

it could be summer 2011 why are we all assuming fall 2011?

[DamnCoffee]

Let the two years of speculation start.


Right.


Now!

[Quantumofsolace007]

Starting with Sean connery will play M Bond's dad and the villian

the title is beyond the ice

Amy winhouse and the killers will do a duet

and there wil not only be a gay love scene but a gay musical number with al pachino



Serious though I think we'll get something substantial in the next 2 weeks.

Fine by me. I'd rather have a 2010 release date, but nevermind. I think it's right to seriously plan this on out. I really hope it's summer, though.

I never get why so many big films have to be released during summer. It makes these few months very over-crowded. I hope they'll go for an autumn-release.

as for not having much left from fleming, there is a whole book called you only live twice that has not been used.

That's what I thought of too.

there is also The man with golden gun and a few of the short stories

notably From a view to a kill, For your eyes only (the idea of M asking bond to do a personal favour would be perfect) Octopussy and the hildebrand Rarity are all potantially untapped gold mines for use in a bond film.

Wasn't really expecting to see Bond next year, so this isn't much of a shock.

More of a shock is that Bond month at the BFI completely passed me by - was planning on catching On Her Majesty’s Secret Service in all its restored glory on the silver screen (anyone know if there are any plans for a wider release or something - please PM me).

2011? Just as I thought. Personally, I think this is great news. I'm glad they're not rushing it. This'll create some real anticipation (outside fandom, I mean) for BOND 23.

Well, they better take the time to craft something worth seeing.

[Skudor]

With any luck Lee Tamahori is already crafting a script with the expert help of Purvis and Wade.

The only time they've failed to do so, IMO, was with 1999's TWINE, which of course came two years after TND. For me, a long break between Bonds has always resulted in a very good film (TSWLM, GOLDENEYE, DAD, CR).

Anyway, regardless, it'll seem more worth seeing after three years as opposed to just two.

[Skudor]

One out of four might count as a half decent result in some quarters.

[DamnCoffee]

I've just had a thought. What if they decide to push it back to 2012? To tie in with the 50th Anniversary.

[Loomis]

Don't worry, they won't.

[zencat]

Nice scoop. 2011. Okay. I can now plan my next three years.

[Pierce - Daniel]

we all knew it was coming....at least we can hope for a Summer 2011 release.
But isn't Thor, Spidey and Harry Potter already takern all the good spots???
Having sadi that all the big summer movie's, Angels and Demons, Terminator, Star Trek, X-men, all opened a wekk away from each other.

[Conlazmoodalbrocra]

A bit disappointed to hear we'll have to wait that long. But as long as it's good, it'll be worth waiting for!

[danslittlefinger]

So will this be the three films for Craig? Again, gut feeling he won't do a fourth.

With any luck Lee Tamahori is already crafting a script with the expert help of Purvis and Wade.

You jest, right?

[JimmyBond]

Dang I won't see the next Bond film until I'm 30.

Me being 30. That's a scary thought.

BTW, this is an excellent site. Terrific comics section.

Oh-oh, hope they don't.. but then what would they do for the 50th. Anniversary then?

I also hope that Daniel Craig keeps looking young..

Well that is the question... (and fit of course) but he's aging ok so far...I just hope he watches his knees carefully.

My seven weeks away from being born son will be two by then.

I'll have to find a babysitter!


But I am glad they're taking their time with this one. I have very high hopes.

I'll be nearly 21!
How scary is that.

[Mr_Wint]

2011 is what I expected.


Interviewer: We noticed that you mentioned in the press that work with the next film have started.
Wilson: Hehe, yes, and that's everything I can say. We have started, not more.

Interviewer: But when will the film be released, will we have to wait until 2011?
Wilson: Yes, I can confirm that. We need more time and don't want to stress things.

Interviewer: Are you working with a new version of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang?
Wilson: It is a project we evaluate, that's right.

Interviewer: Do you have any ideas? Is there more to find in Fleming?
Wilson: No. We have almost used everything from that source.

Interviewer: Today’s show of The Living Daylights was not from a digital copy. Aren't all of them digitally restored?
Wilson: Most of them are, but not all. This one is unfortunately not finished.

Interviewer: How often do you watch the movies?
Wilson: Now I'm watching them on DVD. In average, I see all Bondmovies within a 5 year period.

Interviewer: Not on Blu-ray?
Wilson: No, I've not come that far yet.

2011 sounds like a good idea to release it properly. Building a good script/story sometimes needs time, and then they can even create an awesome and innovative campaign for the movie, a la The Dark Knight (websites and all that).
