Second Daniel Craig Bond Film A Go

Via ComingSoon:

*It was announced today by producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc. and Sony Pictures Entertainment, that the 22nd James Bond adventure will be released by Columbia Pictures on May 2, 2008 with Daniel Craig reprising the role of the legendary British secret agent.

The story for the latest James Bond film produced by the franchise holders, EON Productions has yet to be announced.

“As we wrap production on ‘Casino Royale’ we couldn’t be more excited about the direction the franchise is heading with Daniel Craig. Daniel has taken the origins of Ian Fleming’s James Bond portraying, with emotional complexity, a darker and edgier 007,” said Wilson and Broccoli.*

So, no 007 in 2007, but better to take the time and work on the script. As I’ve said before in the Craig-bashing threads, I’m honestly looking forward to a Bond film for the first time in 19 years.

Just to clarify: I’m looking forward to Casino Royale, and then the next one if CR is any good.

They’ve been saying that since Timothy Dalton.

Daniel Craig is an ugly Vlad Putin lookalike with the face of a decrepit bloodhound and a constant expression of sadness in his ice-blue eyes. He would be far more effective playing an evil Russian villain who Bond is fighting against. I am aghast, disgusted and repelled by the notion of this guy playing James Bond.
