MGM and Universal announced today that they are delaying Daniel Craig’s last Bond, James Bond feature until November 25th. No Time To Die was originally slated to come out next month.
Why the change? They said, “MGM, Universal and Bond producers, Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, announced today that after careful consideration and thorough evaluation of the global theatrical marketplace, the release of NO TIME TO DIE will be postponed until November 2020.”
Yeah, like the Coronavirus is at fault? Let’s be real, the movie has not been getting much buzz, the trailer was a train wreck that told no story, and Billie Eilish’s theme song is being trashed, by me and others.
Even though the movie has had a lot of delays due to a director dropping out and injuries by the lead. I bet they are going to do some reshoots to make the feature better.
Worse comes to worst, they can get a new 007 for the next movie in the franchise. Oh wait…
Adele, Duran Duran, Sheena Easton, Madonna, and Tina Turner have all voiced a theme song for Bond, James Bond. Now, Billie Eilish has been tasked with the job. Today, they released the audio for her song No Time To Die, and they should call it It’s Time to Sleep.
The song is so monotone, it reminds of the music they play with a white noise machine to help you get a good night’s rest. It is something your dentist will listen to as he is putting you under. The tune is far from exciting which is what you would expect for an OO7 movie.
Who knows, maybe it is fitting for the much-delayed film? The trailer was lackluster. I guess, they had to slow it down for the ageing Daniel Craig who is leaving the franchise. That and Rami Maleck is the bad guy. He is as thrilling as this song.
I have to go now. I can barely keep my eyes open because that song just put me to sleeeeeeee………..
The first trailer is out for No Time To Die, and I have no idea what the film is about. What I can tell, is that Daniel Craig’s final appearance as Bond, James Bond is going to be a spectacular one. Full of lots of exciting chases, stunts and special effects. Which at the end of the day is what 007 movies are all about. That and Bond Girls.
Which seems like they are setting up for the new Bond being a woman, Black or anything they want him (or her) to be. Which I am OK with. Remember how upset people were when they picked a blonde man to be the international spy. We obviously got over it!
So much so, many of you will run out to see the picture when it comes out on April 2nd.
Daniel Craig has played James Bond in five movies, but will he do a sixth one? While promoting Knives Out, a non 007 movie, he revealed his fate to Germany’s Express. He told them, “In the future, someone else will have to do it!”
Does Craig, Daniel Craig have any plans after No Time To Die comes out on April? He said, “I don’t have any. I am in a happy situation where I am sent a lot of scripts and offered me very different roles. My only plan is to work with good and nice people.”
I am sure he will be as hot commodity as it is for being the next Bond, James Bond. Who do you think should get the iconic role?
Back in the early ’80s, Roger Moore said he was done playing 007. Therefore, the producers started to look for a replacement. They auditioned several leading men and one of them was James Brolin.
I guess you can say he stirred them the right way because they offered him the role. In fact, they told him to go home to the States and pack for a year of filming in London. He told This Morning today, as he was doing so, Moore decided to reprise his role as Bond, James Bond in Octopussy.
Which means he never got to play the International Spy. As we know the Marcus Welby star is an American, so what type of accent was he going to use? He says that he was going to use an intercontinental one and not a British accent. I guess they did not want another Dick Van Dyke on their hands.
How did he feel when he heard that Moore was going back for more? The actor said, “I am a fatalist in a way. I just went OK.” Then he added, “But I look back and I think it would have been a great thing.” It would have been the role of a lifetime.
Hearing that he was almost cast, proves that Bond does not have to be a white Brit. Anyone can play the legendary role, as long as they play it well.
Brolin also talked about his son Josh and his children with Barbra Streisand. The proud pop revealed that his son was bullied in school because of his dad’s career. Therefore, he did not want to go into show business. Then, one summer he came to LA to spend some time with his pops and said he wanted to be an actor. Within no time he landed a job in a little movie called Goonies. The rest is Hollywood history.
Wait he has kids with Babs? Yes, he does. Four to be exact and they all walk on four legs. As you know they cloned her dog. What the couple was not expecting is that they when the furbaby was born, there would be multiple ones. They decided to keep three and give away the fourth. He also thinks cloning will become more popular in the future. I do not know how I feel about that.
What I do know is that Brolin, James Brolin would have been a good Bond. To see his screen test, then click here!
