Peter Morgan Says Bond 23 Will Be Shocking
All’s quiet on the Bond front for now, as Daniel Craig wraps up a run on Broadway, The Queen writer Peter Morgan taps away at the screenplay, and the producers hem and haw on picking a director. Bond fansite mi6.co.uk got a slight update from Morgan on the script’s progress, in which he admitted “It’s a shocking story,” a revelation that could mean… well, pretty much anything.
He also confirmed that all production is pretty much on hold until someone buys MGM, the studio that owns the rights to the Bond franchise. Given that the series is such a guaranteed money-maker, a film is likely to get greenlit practically immediately, but until the expected sale happens in February, there won’t be much movement. So there’s your update, and may you enjoy what may be another year before any production actually gets started.
