Bond 22 News

From Commander Bond.net - nothing really new, but interesting nonetheless.

As the press junket starts up for Daniel Craig’s sci-fi remake, The Invasion, expect the actor to be continuously quizzed about the future of James Bond. Good news for us 007 fans! First up is an interview with the Chicago Sun-Times.

“I think that we’ve set up an idea now that there’s an organisation out there,” said Craig, when asked where he’d like to see the character go in the yet-to-be-titled Bond 22. “He also has to deal with revenge because he has lost the girl. I think the process [of how he becomes Bond] is still happening. We haven’t finished the [story] arc. Bond is still maybe too headstrong and he doesn’t make all of the right decisions. I want to continue what we’ve set up in the last movie.”

“We made a good movie and I just want another good movie.”

Craig also spoke about that other spy with the initials J.B. “The ‘Bourne’ series … are superb movies. They’ve kind of brought things to a grittier way, which I really appreciate in an action hero. I like to see these people really dig in.”

“I also like the old Michael Caine spy movies that they were doing in the ’60s. The landscape has [also] changed politically, but I don’t think we’re any less confused then we ever were. That’s why people love good action or sci-fi films or even the James Bond series. We want action heroes who might not know all the answers, but at least they know who the bad guy is and can try to get him or them.”

The actor, whose first 007 outing, Casino Royale, was a huge critical and commercial hit last year, also spoke about the pressures of being propelled into the media spotlight. “It’s a huge deal, but [my family] are very proud of me and seem to be very happy. I’ve been acting a long time now and so it’s not like I haven’t been doing things and they haven’t noticed things. This is a big deal, but this hasn’t come out of the blue.”

Bond 22 Pre-Production Diary (5)
13th August 2007 / 15th February 2007

Update (15th August 2007): Some further details for this report have surfaced from the original Italian newspaper article. Unlike the article in The Times, the Il Giornale piece did not state that the chase sequence forms part of the movie's climax, but added that there were unconfirmed claims that 007 will chase the villain across the rooftops on foot, after negotiating Siena's narrow alleys in his Aston Martin. The Palio race will reportedly serve as the backdrop to the mayhem, rather than being involved in the action in any way. One of the key locations will be the 'bottini', a network of tunnels that run under the city and cannot be visited by the public without permission. Local press claim that the council hopes the use of the location will enhance Siena's image, but none of the city's motifs were permitted to be filmed.

The Italian press reinforced that the shooting taking place on Thursday 16th August for Bond 22 would be of a 'documentary' style, with the production not interfering in any way with the traditional race. The town council of Siena have granted permission for principal photography on Bond 22 to shoot in the region between January and July 2008.

Another chase scene? As much as i like a good foot chase, the one in Casino Royale was ssssoooo awesome and unique i don't think they should attempt another one anytime soon because i'm quite sure it won't live up to the Parkour chase.
