New James Bond film receives disappointing update

The next James Bond film has received a disappointing update, with a studio boss saying they are “not worried” about the gap between the films.

The final part of the long-running spy series, No time to diehit theaters three years ago and served as Daniel Craig’s swansong as 007.

Since then, there has been no information about his replacement or plans for the next film – and it seems fans may have to wait longer to find out more information.

“There are lots of ideas [about potential actors] “New films have emerged that I found interesting,” said Jennifer Salke, global head of Amazon MGM Studios The Observer. “I think there are a lot of different paths we can take.

“We have a good and close relationship with Eon and [producers] Barbara [Broccoli] and Michael [G Wilson]. We don’t want to disrupt the way these wonderful films are made. We adopt their example for ourselves.

“The global audience will be patient,” she added. “We don’t want too much time between films, but we’re not worried at this point.”

Earlier this year, Broccoli shared another disappointing update on the franchise, admitting that “nothing is happening yet” regarding the next film.

“I can’t tell you anything about the next Bond film,” she said deadline. “There is nothing. Nothing is happening yet.”

Later in March, reports emerged that Aaron Taylor-Johnson was in line to be the next Bond – although a production insider later claimed that there was “no truth to the rumours”.

In other news, Q actor Ben Whishaw admitted last month that he would return to the franchise if asked, but suggested that “it may need a new life and a whole new group of people.”
