Daniel Craig Will Return As James Bond, Says Spectre Producer
We won’t spoil this hilarious “unreleased” Spectre scene for you any further, see it for yourself below.
It is the second film in the series from celebrated director Sam Mendes, after the success of Skyfall in 2012. This is a few good stuff, way deeper than the silly Bonds.
“I do have one beef with Bond”, Colbert explains to the actor.
Spectre, the latest installment of the Bond franchise, opens in theatres Friday. He told us that Ian Fleming stayed there “on and off” during that time period. And “Spectre” contains all the quintessential Bond movie elements – clever action sequences, spectacular locales, colorful baddies and another assured performance by Craig in his fourth outing as 007.
Civil rights and privacy take a beating, but to C, that’s a small price to pay.
French actress Lea Seydoux (Midnight in Paris, Inglourious Basterds, Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol) plays Madeleine Swann, the love interest of Bond and the daughter of his old nemesis. It seems as though everyone is working against Bond – the 007 program is likely to be terminated, and his agency has him grounded in London and on probation.
Led by a mysterious baddie named Oberhauser (Christoph Waltz) and enforced by a nasty brute named Hinx (Dave Bautista, playing a decidedly less humorous character than his role in “Guardians of the Galaxy“), Spectre has been looking forward to a final showdown with the 007-sized thorn in its side. He really gets around.
There’s plenty of action, and plenty of romance, as Craig’s Bond comes full circle, from the brash bulldog of “Casino Royale” to a quippy, suave secret agent who wants his martinis shaken, not stirred.
But the worst thing is this writer’s opinion was the theme song.
In the new Bond movie, the Fil-Am plays Mr. Hinx. (Remember the opening of “Inglorious Basterds” when he shook down the farmer hiding Jews?). There’s something to be said for leaving an audience wanting more, but this takes that to extremes. He’s been particularly grumpy in various interviews, and when the subject of doing another Bond flick arises, he becomes exasperated, infamously saying last month, “I’d rather break this glass and slash my wrists” than make another 007 movie. It’s a whiny, snooze-inducing number that makes you question if it’s even worth sitting through the rest of the movie. Then, the language is minimal at best, pretty much what you would expect from milder PG-13 films.
