Quote:

Bond has left active service and is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica. His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help.
"The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far more treacherous than expected, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology.

New James Bond Film Announced 2019

"The 25th edition to the Bond franchise has been announced with Daniel Craig reprising his role as 007 for the 5th time. This is is likely to be the closing Bond film of the Craig era and in his new role as director Cary Fukunaga of True Detective will be looking to recapture some of the excitement & enthusiasm that’s been missing from the franchise since the release of Skyfall. So what’s new?


What’s the New James Bond Title?

As a secret agent, James Bond may have a bad habit of freely offering his real name to strangers, but the real name of this film remains a secret with the working title rumoured to be Shatterhand, or Eclipse.
The Story

It’s been revealed that the movie will start with Bond happily retired in “his spiritual home” of Jamaica before being called back into service by the British Government.

What’s the James Bond Release Date?

With the abrupt exit of former Bond director Danny Boyle as well as subsequent script rewrites, the release date of Bond 25 has been pushed back from an originally planned October 2019 release to an April 2020 release.

The Bond Cast


Ben Whishaw, Ralph Fiennes and Naomie Harris (pictured above) will be reprising their roles as M, Q & Moneypenny. Jeffrey Wright & Lea Seydoux will also be returning to their roles as Felix and Madeleine Swan, newly announced members of the Bond cast include:

David Dencik
Ana De Armas
Billy Magnussen
Dali Benssalah

The New Bond Villain


Rami Malek, will be playing the titular villain of Bond 25, and after his Oscar-winning performance in Bohemian Rhapsody expectations are high.

The New Bond Car

Bond will be roaring off with some instant torque in his new Aston Martin Rapide E (pictured below), Aston Martin’s first Electric vehicle and one of only 155 that will be produced. Bond’s new car cost £250,000… we can only presume at the expense of the British taxpayer."

Oh dear!

If this is true, it will be the Doctor Who backlash x a million!

The next 007 will reportedly be 'Captain Marvel' star Lashana Lynch, who will be the first-ever black female to take the 'James Bond' role | The Insider

"According to the Daily Mail, "James Bond 25" will introduce the new secret agent in a "pivotal scene." While Daniel Craig will still portray the titular charcter, Lynch's character has taken over the iconic number 007 after Bond's retirement.

"There is a pivotal scene at the start of the film where M says, 'Come in 007,' and in walks Lashana who is black, beautiful, and a woman," an anonymous source told the Mail on Sunday. "It's a popcorn-dropping moment. Bond is still Bond but he's been replaced as 007 by this stunning woman.""

I think they're mickey-taking a bit, to be honest. Isn't the plot that Bond has retired but gets called back in? So presumably the 'new' 007 can't handle it!
Which is pretty funny when you think about it. :pound:

Does sound a bit Pierce Brosnan era which does leave me a little nervous - they were some boring films even when they came out - with the exception of course of Goldeneye.

Let's hope Sisters of Mercy do the theme song - No Time to Cry, er' Die.
