Bond Filming with no cast?

DanielCraig.jpgOkay, well they have Bond, but no villain or leading lady, and yet they’re off filming in Prague right now.

From the BBC:

The film, starring new 007 Daniel Craig, started shooting in the Czech capital last week.

But trade paper Hollywood Reporter said scenes involving Bond’s love interest would not begin for more than a month.

Casino Royale writer Paul Haggis told the paper: “They’re talking to three to four girls right now.”

He added: “Every week I read there’s a new Bond girl, and I call them and they say, ‘No, you idiot’.”

Quite Mr Haggis. I’ve been staying away from all talk of it because…well, actually because I was taking a holiday, but looking at the Bond rumours that went on you know fine well where all the leading lady rumours are going.

Director Martin Campbell said …that the leading female star would have the “best Bond girl part” ever.

Really…I think the jury is out on that one. With a month worth of filming before the leading lady arrives, and possibly the same for a villain, this is probably the hardest part of making a movie where they have to shoot everything out of sequence and continuity.

  1. well, i did “break” the story with a comment on the thandie post before darren :)

    and for what it’s worth, i’m fairly certain imdb was originally a british site based in birmingham before amazon ate them up.

  2. It’s a week old on this site because I’ve been sitting on it a week. Hence all the stories at once. If you hadn’t noticed I’ve been taking a break and not posting anything for about two weeks now, but I’m back, and all these stories are from my holiday, none of them are breaking today.

    I think the BBC, much like I was, are holding off because there are so many false rumours flying around for Bond trying to get more advertising going.

    Still, you’re right, nothing’s happening and no announcements.

  3. What’s also not looking good is that the news is almost a week old, and Richard puts it up just now.

    (See my comments regarding the dullard Thandie Fig Newton below)

    Or that us Americans get the Bond news before the BCC.

    Or that a least a week has passed and there’s only Craig and a martini, shaken AND stirred.
