Synopsis
CASINO ROYALE is based on Ian Fleming's novel of the same name. Published in 1953, it was the first book in his James Bond series. EON Productions' Casino Royale produced by Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli will mark the introduction of Daniel Craig as legendary secret agent, 007. Martin Campbell is directing this film, the 21st in the 44 year franchise.

Casino Royale introduces JAMES BOND before he holds his license to kill. But Bond is no less dangerous, and with two professional assassinations in quick succession, he is elevated to "00" status.


Above: Eva Green, Daniel Craig and Caterina Murino.
 

Bond's first 007 mission takes him to Madagascar where he is to spy on a terrorist, MOLLAKA (Sebastien Foucan). Not everything goes to plan and Bond decides to investigate, independently of MI6, in order to track down the rest of the terrorist cell. Following a lead to the Bahamas, he encounters DIMITRIOS (Simon Abkarian) and his girlfriend, SOLANGE (Caterina Murino). He learns that Dimitrios is involved with LE CHIFFRE (Mads Mikkelsen), banker to the world's terrorist organizations.

Secret Service intelligence reveals that Le Chiffre is planning to raise money in a high-stakes poker game in Montenegro at Le Casino royale. MI6 assigns 007 to play against him, knowing that is Le Chiffre loses, it will destroy his organisation.

M (Judi Dench) places Bond under the watchful eye of the beguiling VESPER LUND (Eva Green). At first skeptical of what value Vesper can provide, Bond's interest in her deepens as they brave danger together and even torture at the hands of Le Chiffre.

In Montenegro, Bond allies himself with MATHIS (Giancarlo Giannini) MI6's local field agent, and FELIX LEITER (Jeffrey Wright) who is representing the interests of the CIA. The marathon game proceeds with dirty tricks and violence, raising the stakes beyond blood money and reaching a terrifying climax.

James Bond's first "007" mission leads him to Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), banker to the world's terrorists. In order to stop him, and bring down the terrorist network, Bond must beat Le Chiffre in a high-stakes poker game at Casino Royale. Bond is initially annoyed when a beautiful British Treasury official, Vesper Lynd (Eva Green), is assigned to deliver his stake for the game and watch over the government's money. But, as Bond and Vesper survive a series of lethal attacks by Le Chiffre and his henchmen, a mutual attraction develops leading them both into further danger and events that will shape Bond's life forever.

Casino Royale

Bond är tillbaka

007:s bakgrund

Filmen baseras på Ian Flemings roman med samma namn som publicerades 1953. Casino Royale introducerar James Bond innan han får sin "license to kill", men han är inte mindre farlig för det. Med två professionella lönnmord i bakfickan befordras han till 00-status.

Spioneri på kasinot

Bonds första 007-uppdrag för honom till Madagaskar, där han har i uppdrag att spionera på terroristen Mollaka (Sebastien Foucan). Allt går inte enligt planen, och Bond beslutar sig för att undersöka, oberoende av MI6, för att spåra resten av terroristcellerna.

När han följer upp en ledtråd till Bahamas möter han Dimitros (Simon Abkarian) och hans flickvän Solange (Caterina Murino). Han får veta att Dimitrios har kopplingar till Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), som är bankir för världens terroristorganisationer.

Secret Services avslöjar att Le Chiffre planerar att satsa pengar i ett pokerspel med höga insatser i Montenegro på Le Casino Royale. MI6, som vet att Le Chiffres organisation krossas om han förlorar, skickar 007 på uppgiften att spela mot honom.

M (Judi Dench) sätter Bond under Vesper Lynds (Eva Green) vakande öga. Till en början är Bond skeptisk till hur mycket Vesper kan bistå med, men hans intresse för henne ökar när de tappert möter faror – och även tortyr av Le Chiffre – tillsammans.

I Montenegro allierar sig Bond med Mathis (Giancarlo Giannini), MI6:s lokala fältagent, och Felix Leiter (Jeffrey Wright), som representerar CIA:s intressen. Maratonspelet fortsätter med fula trick och våld, och höjer insatserna bortom blodspengar tills det når ett skräckinjagande klimax.

Casino Royale med en ny agent 007!

I CASINO ROYALE, som är den 21:a James Bond-filmen, debuterar Daniel Craig som agent 007. Filmen hade inspellningsstart i Tjeckien måndagen den 30 januari 2006. Producerad för Eon Productions av Michael G. Wilson och Barbara Broccoli och regisserad av Martin Campbell.

CASINO ROYALE följer James Bonds tidiga karriär. Hans första uppdrag som ”dubbelnolla” leder honom till Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), bankir för världens terrorister. För att stoppa honom och krossa hans kriminella nätverk, måste Bond slå Le Chiffre i ett pokerparti med höga insatser på Casino Royale.  Bond irriteras inledningsvis när vackra Vesper Lynd (Eva Green) från finansdepartementet får uppdraget att leverera hans insatser till spelet och vaka över regeringens pengar. Samtidigt som Bond och Vesper överlever en serie mordiska attacker av Le Chiffre och hans hejdukar, dras de till varandra. Det leder dem in i ännu farligare situationer som kommer att förändra James Bonds liv för alltid.

Manuset är skrivet av Neal Purvis, Robert Wade och Oscarbelönade Paul Haggis och
CASINO ROYALE är inspelad i Prag och Karlovy Vary i Tjeckien, i New Providence och Paradise Island i Bahamas. Man filmade också vid italienska Comosjön och i Venedig, innan filmteamet återvände till Storbritannien. Här spelade man in scener på flygplatsen Dunsfold Airfield i Surrey, Eton College i Winsor, Buckinghamshires Black Park och i den legendariska studiobyggnaden ”007 Stage” (som brann ner efter inspelningen) i Pinewood Studios.
Brittiske skådespelaren Daniel Craig introduceras som James Bond i CASINO ROYALE. Han stöttas av ett starkt internationellt skådespelaruppbåd. Dame Judi Dench återvänder som M, chef för brittiska underrättelsetjänsten. Vesper Lynd, den första kvinnan som James Bond blir kär i, spelas av svenskättade fransyskan Eva Green. Danske skådespelaren Mads Mikkelsen tar sig an rollen som Le Chiffre, en internationell penningtvättare och Bonds motståndare i ett pokerparti med mycket höga insatser.

Amerikanske skådespelaren Jeffrey Wright gestaltar Felix Leiter, Bonds allierade från CIA, och ryktbare italienske skådespelaren Giancarlo Giannini gör rollen som Mathis, Bonds kontakt från MI6. Italienskan Caterina Murino gör rollen som Solange, den vackra men olyckliga hustrun till en av Le Chiffres ondskefulla medarbetare, som faller för James Bonds charm.

I filmen syns också den nya bilen Aston Martin DBS (i ett utförande kallad ”Casino Ice”), som inte kommer att börja säljas förrän 2007, samt Bonds favorit Aston Martin DB5. I filmen avslöjar också James Bond receptet till sin favoritmartini, ”The Vesper”.

CASINO ROYALE är en Albert R. Broccolis EON Production producerad av Michael G. Wilson och Barbara Broccoli. Filmen är regisserad av Martin Campbell och manuset är skrivet av Neal Purvis, Robert Wade och Oscarbelönade Paul Haggis. CASINO ROYALE är en brittisk, tjeckisk, tysk och amerikansk samproduktion, producerad under gemensam flagg av Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures och Columbia Pictures distribuerad av Sony Pictures Releasing.

Intrigen i korthet

Den 21.a Bondfilmen Casino Royale introducerar Daniel Craig i rollen som 007. Filmen är baserad på Ian Flemings första roman om Bond.

I Casino Royale möter vi James Bond innan han får sin licens att döda. Men Bond är inte mindre farlig då, och efter att ha utfört två snabba och professionella likvideringar befordras han till dubbelnolla.

Bonds första uppdrag som 007 för honom till Madagaskar där han ska spionera på en terrorist, Mollaka (Sebastien Foucan). Allt går inte enligt planerna och Bond beslutar sig för att undersöka det hela, utanför sitt uppdrag från MI6, för att spåra upp resten av terroristcellen. Han följer ett spår till Bahamas, där han träffar Dimitrios (Simon Abkarian) med sin flickvän Solange (Caterina Murino). Bond får veta att Dimitrios har kontakter med Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), bankir åt världens terroristorganisationer.

Om filmens tillkomst

Bondfans över hela världen hade under många år framfört önskemål om att Eon skulle göra en "riktig" Bondfilm baserad på Ian Flemings första Bondbok Casino Royale.
Som vi minns hade Fleming på ett (alltför) tidigt stadium sålt filmrättigheterna till den här boken, med följd att Casino Royale inte ingick i det paket Bondböcker som Saltzman & Broccoli köpte filmrättigheterna till 1961. Columbia gjorde så småningom film av Casino Royale 1967 med David Niven som Bond och med Peter Sellers som Evelyn Tremble. Det är en ökänt usel film som var tänkt som en parodi på Bond och som i våra dagar mest fungerat som en förlaga för Austin Powers-filmerna.

Columbia köptes senare av Sony. I samband med en juridisk uppgörelse mellan MGM och Sony 2000 överfördes slutligen rättigheterna till Casino Royale till MGM, som därigenom samlade alla Bondrättigheter under sitt eget tak. Därmed kunde fansen börja hoppas på att bokens intrig skulle kunna dyka upp i en kommande Bondfilm.

Den tjugonde Bondfilmen, Die Another Day, hade blivit en stor kassasuccé, den mest inkomstbringande Bondfilmen så långt.
Alla räknade med att Pierce Brosnan skulle återkomma som 007.
Det fanns inte direkt något skäl för filmbolaget att byta ut honom efter fyra framgångsrika Bondfilmer. Brosnan fick ett muntligt löfte om en optionsrätt på "Bond 21", en nyhet som gick ut i media.
Men något hände.
Planeringen av nästa Bondfilm drog ut på tiden och det kom egentligen inga konkreta nyheter, vilket lämnade fältet fritt för massor av spekulationer. Andra skådespelare började pekas ut som ny 007 i brittisk press, samtidigt som visst mediafokus plötsligt började läggas vid Brosnans ålder. Var det dags för en yngre Bond nu?

Craig som Bond

Våren 2004 började det komma allt mer envisa uppgifter som hävdade att Brosnan inte skulle få förnyat kontrakt som Bond. Förhandlingarna inför den nya filmen ansågs kärva. Hade Brosnan begärt för högt gage? Ingen visste riktigt. Brosnan själv började uttrycka tydlig irritation i intervjuer. Han ville ha klara besked från Eon om hur det skulle bli med Bondfilmen.
I Bahamas, under inspelningarna av filmen After the Sunset, fick Brosnan ett telefonsamtal från producenterna, där de meddelade att de inte tänkte förnya hans kontrakt och att de tänkte föryngra Bond i nästa film.
Brosnan blev sur, dels för att ha fått sparken och dels för sättet han meddelats på.
I oktober 2004 stod det klart att Brosnan var ute ur bilden. Det blev sedan en hel del bittra känslor i intervjuer under hösten och vintern 2004. Oavsett vilka andra filmer Brosnan försökte marknadsföra fick han bara frågor om Bond från hela världens media. Samtidigt var det påtagligt tyst från Eon. Det kom inga officiella besked, förutom att nästa Bondfilm skjutits upp till 2006.

Under 2004 genomfördes dessutom en jätteaffär när Sony köpte hela filmbolaget MGM för 4.8 miljarder dollar. Affären hade föregåtts av förhandlingar under mer än ett halvår. Detta fördröjde givetvis planeringen av den nya Bondfilmen.

Spekulationerna kring den nya Bondfilmen gick nu upp i absolut högvarv. Vem skulle bli ny 007? Det fanns ingen självklar kandidat, även om mediafavoriter som Clive Owen och Hugh Jackman ofta nämndes.
Eon har alltid haft traditionen att inte låta Bondskådespelaren få procent på filmens intäkter. Vinstandelar är något som ibland är vanligt beträffande andra storfilmer. Eons ovilja att gå med på detta kan vara orsaken till att flera av de mest kända kandidaterna till Bondrollen verkade vara måttligt intresserade av den.

3 februari 2005 meddelade Eon att den nya Bondfilmen skulle heta Casino Royale och baseras på Ian Flemings första Bondbok. Samtidigt blev det känt att Martin Campbell skulle regissera filmen. Campbell hade tidigare regisserat GoldenEye 1995.
Campbell var mycket intresserad av att vara med och föryngra Bond. Han propagerade öppet för att Eon borde välja en helt okänd skådespelare som ny 007.

Hur skulle då Bond föryngras? Eon gjorde klart att den nya filmen inte skulle bli en som utspelar sig i en historisk dåtid, men att vi i filmen ska få se hur Bond formas till en hårdare personlighet och hur han blir den agent vi känner till. Inledningsvis kommer vi att få se hur Bond skaffar sig sin 00-status.

Manusförfattare är än en gång Neal Purvis & Robert Wade. Deras manus har sedan bearbetats av Paul Haggis, Oscarbelönad 2006 för Crash.

Varken Q eller Moneypenny finns med i manuset. Bond kommer inte att ha några tekniska Q-prylar - inga osynliga bilar alltså. Men Aston Martin bidrar med nya modellen DBS.

Det har sagts att första tredjedelen av manuset är "original" medan resten i princip följer Flemings bok. Det är första gången på flera decennier som en Bondfilm kommer att innehålla stora delar av en originalintrig av Ian Fleming.

Givetvis måste bokens mer än 50 år gamla intrig moderniseras, men de grundläggande dragen ska finnas kvar.
I Flemings bok konfronteras 007 med skurken Le Chiffre, och Bonds uppdrag är att besegra honom i ett stort parti chemin de fer vid Casino Royale, och därigenom vinna en stor summa pengar av Le Chiffre.
Filmen ska också innehålla en sådan spelsekvens på Casino Royale, men man har bytt ut chemin de fer mot det idag mer kända spelet poker.
Boken innehåller också en ökänd tortyrscen, då le Chiffre plågar Bond på ett sällsynt elakt sätt. Den scenen ska vara med i filmmanuset, har det sagts.

Craig och kvinnorna

14 oktober 2005 tillkännagavs det att Daniel Craig, 37, hade fått rollen som James Bond i Casino Royale. Craig anlände till presskonferensen med båt på Themsen i bästa Bondstil.
Craig hade gradvis seglat fram som en allt tydligare kandidat till rollen när andra namn föll bort. Ändå sågs valet av honom som en liten överraskning i media.
Brittiska tidningar var hårda mot Craig redan från första början, innan någon scen till filmen hade börjat spelas in. Många skribenter hade kanske svårt att smälta att deras favorit Clive Owen inte skulle bli den nye 007.

Av kostnadsskäl valde Eon att spela in det mesta av filmens interiörscener i Barrandov-studion i Prag. Endast ett mindre antal scener spelas in i brittiska Pinewood.
Inspelningsplatser för Casino Royale var Tjeckien, Italien, Bahamas och Storbritannien. Sydafrika var länge en planerad inspelningsplats men landet byttes senare ut mot Bahamas.

Intresset för den nya Bondfilmen och för den nye 007 Daniel Craig är mycket stort. Det har startats webbkampanjer både för och emot Craig, långt innan filmen eller ens trailern kommit ut.
I början av maj släppte filmbolaget förhandstrailern till filmen, efter mycket spekulationer. Den emottogs mycket positivt av fansen.

Officiellt pressmeddelande från Eon:
"We are thrilled that Eva and Mads have joined the cast of CASINO ROYALE completing a first rate international cast. They bring exceptional talent to the characters Ian Fleming described so vividly in his first James Bond novel. After an extensive search we have found the perfect actress. Eva is one of France's most accomplished young actresses, now receiving international acclaim. She brings to the complex role of Vesper an exciting combination of enigmatic and seductive beauty. Likewise Mads has such a compelling onscreen presence and his riveting performances in "Open Hearts" and "Adam's Apples" convinced both us and director Martin Campbell that he was ideal for the role of Le Chiffre."

Eon Productions held a press conference today at Barrandov Studios where director Martin Campbell announced that Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen (King Arthur) will play the main villain Le Chiffre, putting to rest at least one of the Casino Royale casting questions.

As for the more burning question of who will play the Bond girl, Campbell revealed the choice is now down to "two or three" but added "you'll just have to wait to find out." Eva Green and Olivia Wilde are reported to be the finalists.

New James Bond Daniel Craig, perhaps thinking of the frayed nerves caused by starting the $100 million-plus shoot without a love interest, assured that the shoot is progressing anyway: "We haven't got there so it's all fine."

True to form, one journalist from the Czech magazine Spy asked Craig what he thought of media speculation about his "orientation." After a moment, Craig responded icily, "I didn't know they had but thanks for the information."

Another local reporter got off to an interesting start by asking the assembled group, Craig, Campbell, Judi Dench and producers Michael Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, if they were aware there was a previous Casino Royale.

 


 

DANIEL CRAIG CAST AS JAMES BOND IN
CASINO ROYALE


The 21st 007 Screen Adventure,
An MGM/Columbia Pictures Co-Production
To Be Directed By Martin Campbell
Columbia Pictures Will Release On November 17, 2006

Daniel Crag  James Bond nr 6 in Casino Royal



Culver City, CA October 14, 2005 – It was announced today by producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc. and Sony Pictures Entertainment, that DANIEL CRAIG has been cast in the role of the legendary British secret agent, James Bond, in the highly anticipated 007 adventure thriller CASINO ROYALE.

CASINO ROYALE reunites Wilson and Broccoli with Martin Campbell, who directed the 1995 Bond blockbuster GOLDENEYE. His most recent film, “The Legend of Zorro,” will be released on October 28, 2005.

CASINO ROYALE will be the 21st James Bond film produced by the franchise holders, EON Productions. The MGM/Columbia Pictures production begins shooting in January and is due for release worldwide on November 17, 2006. It will be filmed in the Czech Republic, the Bahamas, Italy and the UK.

Neal Purvis and Robert Wade wrote the screenplay based on famed author Ian Fleming’s first novel. The script is currently being polished by Academy Award®-nominated writer, Paul Haggis (“Million Dollar Baby”).

Born in 1968, DANIEL CRAIG was raised on the Wirral nr. Liverpool. He moved to London to join the National Youth Theatre at the age 17 and continued his training at the London Guildhall School of Music and Drama. CRAIG has since become regarded as one of Britain's finest actors securing a variety of roles in television, theatre and film.

He is currently filming a thriller alongside Nicole Kidman, "The Visiting", and has two films in post-production; Steven Spielberg's "Munich" and Douglas McGrath's "Every Word Is True", co-starring Sandra Bullock and Gwyneth Paltrow.

Recent film credits include Sam Mendes' "The Road to Perdition", "The Mother", "Sylvia", and last year he received much critical acclaim for Matthew Vaughn's "Layer Cake" as well as Roger Michell's "Enduring Love".

Wilson and Broccoli said “It has been a long time ambition for us to film the first book in the series, CASINO ROYALE, which defined the complex character of James Bond. We are thrilled DANIEL CRAIG will play the character of 007. Daniel is a superb actor who has all the qualities needed to bring a contemporary edge to the role. CASINO ROYALE will have all the action, suspense and espionage that our audiences have come to expect from us but nevertheless takes the franchise in a new and exciting direction.”

“James Bond is a character without peer in motion picture history,” said Pascal, Chairman of Sony Pictures Entertainment Motion Picture Group. “He is a household name recognized in virtually every corner of the globe and because of this renown, the casting of the new 007 takes on a special importance. We believe that in DANIEL CRAIG we have found the ideal 21st century Bond and we couldn’t be more privileged to be working with Barbara and Michael, who are tireless champions and guardians of the James Bond legacy.”

Director Martin Campbell said, “The thing about James Bond is that each actor who has filled the role has brought his own style and imprint. With Daniel as our new Bond, I am thrilled to be returning to shepherd the new 007 in the new Bond adventure.”

Dan Taylor, President of Metro Goldwyn Mayer Inc, said: “All of us here at MGM are delighted that Daniel Craig, an actor of such high-calibre, has been chosen to be the next Bond. We are also very excited to be working closely with Barbara and Michael again and with Columbia Pictures on CASINO ROYALE, which we predict to be the biggest, best Bond ever.”

ABOUT EON PRODUCTIONS

EON Productions is owned by the Broccoli family and is the most successful film series in history. The most recent adventure, DIE ANOTHER DAY (2002), was also the highest grossing film in the franchise bringing in almost $430 million in worldwide box office receipts. THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH (1999) grossed $353 million, TOMORROW NEVER DIES released in 1997, grossed more than $340 million around the world and GOLDENEYE, took in $345 million.

The enduring film franchise created by the late producer, Albert R. (Cubby) Broccoli, was launched in 1962 with DR. NO starring Sean Connery, who went on to play James Bond in FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE, GOLDFINGER, THUNDERBALL, YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE and DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER. George Lazenby had one outing as 007, in ON HER MAJESTY’S SECRET SERVICE, before Roger Moore took over the role in LIVE AND LET DIE, THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN, THE SPY WHO LOVED ME, MOONRAKER, FOR YOUR EYES ONLY, OCTOPUSSY and A VIEW TO A KILL. Timothy Dalton later inherited the role and played the famed spy in THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS and LICENCE TO KILL. The most recent James Bond was Pierce Brosnan, who starred in the global blockbusters GOLDENEYE, TOMORROW NEVER DIES, THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH and DIE ANOTHER DAY.

Officiellt : Daniel Craig är den nye James Bond
På fredag 14/10 presenterades den sjätte skådespelaren i raden att spela James Bond i Eons filmserie : Daniel Craig, 37. Craig har under en tid tillhört de mest nämnda skådespelarna som varit aktuella för rollen men det var alltså först nu som det hela blev officiellt. Craig anlände till presskonferensen ombord på HMS President i bästa Bondstil - via racerbåt.
Craig har tecknat ett kontrakt på tre Bondfilmer av vilka 2006 års "Casino Royale" blir den första.
En kul detalj är att Daniel Craigs mor inte kunde hålla tyst om sonens nya roll utan avslöjade det hela till lokalbladet Liverpool Daily News i förväg.

Samtidigt meddelas att den förre Bond, Pierce Brosnan, kommer att "avslöja allt" i en lång intervju i decembernumret av Playboy

Eon Productions confirm decision on James Bond #6 has not been made yet

Following the latest wave of tabloid speculation and pre-emptive "confirmation" on the casting of the sixth James Bond 007, Eon Productions have confirmed that a decision is yet to be made.

Reuters reports that the decision on who replaces Pierce Brosnan as the next James Bond remains a mystery just weeks, possibly days, ahead of an official announcement.

Who will play Bond villain Le Chiffre? Might it be Donald Sutherland, 
Gulshan Grover, Hrithik Roshan, or Gunnar Schäfer... or one of the other twelve choices?

Screenwriter Paul Haggis speaks of James Bond Begins concept for Casino Royale

Oscar-nominated screenwriter Paul Haggis, who joined Casino Royale production last month to polish the script, has spoken briefly to the Hollywood Reporter about his work on the film and the prospect of a younger James Bond 007.

The trade paper said that whilst in Toronto, "Haggis returned to his hotel room to work on his polish of the 21st James Bond film, "Casino Royale." "It's going to be good," he says. "We're trying to reinvent Bond. He's 28: no Q, no gadgets."

This confirms earlier reports that the producers and director Martin Campbell wanted "Casino Royale" to follow a "Bond Begins" concept, much like the recently rejuvenated Batman franchise.

Long-term Bond fans may recall that Michael G. Wilson wanted to take 007 back to his early career after Roger Moore's tenure as Bond was over in 1985, but producer Cubby Broccoli decided to stick with the tried and tested formula and hired Timothy Dalton to star in "The Living Daylights". Twenty years on and now a co-producer, Wilson is trying out the concept again.

This clashes with the studio, who want Pierce Brosnan to return for a fifth time and a guaranteed box-office success. Sony have asked Brosnan to come back, but the four-times 007 said that the invitation has to come from the producers.

The search for an actor to play a younger Bond is proving difficult, with neither party finding common ground on any of the contenders. With the start date of principal photography looming in January, a decision one way or another is needed soon to avoid a significant delay in production.

Todays News!! 14/9

Location for production of Casino Royale - the 21st James Bond film - would be heading to an island of the east coast of the USA.

Today  can reveal more information on the precise location. Scouting is taking place on various islands in the Caribbean by director Michael Campbell - now working on the film full time after completing work on "Legend Of Zorro".

A major filming location is expected to be based in Bermuda.

The Bahamas has been a popular place for 007, first with Ian Fleming's novels, and then with the filming of "Thunderball", "The Spy Who Loved Me", "For Your Eyes Only" and "Licence To Kill". Nearby Cuba has been used as a location in two Pierce Brosnan films, "GoldenEye" and "Die Anoher Day".

Pre-production is still on schedule despite the shift from the planned location of South Africa and the lack of an official announcement on the casting of 007.

Pierce Brosnan Set For James Bond Return
12th September 2005

Expecting someone else? As the saying goes in Bond-lore, "never say never"!

The turf war over the casting of James Bond for the forthcoming movie "Casino Royale" is about to end. If the trade press reports are anything to go by, Sony, who took over MGM earlier in the year, have been turning down candidates for the "vacant" 007 role proposed by the producers right, left and centre.

The casting of 007 is down to four people: Amy Pascal (Sony), Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli (Eon Productions producers), and Martin Campbell (director of "Casino Royale"). Each party have had their favourites, and due to the much reported failure to find a suitable replacement by the producers, despite their wide reaching casting calls, Sony has come to the inevitable conclusion: if it's not broke, don't fix it.


Casino Royale - 31-08-05
James Bond writer Robert Wade explains the Casino Royale screenplay situation - Paul Haggis only to polish not rewrite

The screenwriting team behind the new James Bond feature have confirmed that Oscar-nominated screenwriter Paul Haggis has been brought on board - reports ScreenDaily.
Robert Wade told ScreenDaily.com that Haggis, who adapted Million Dollar Baby as well as writing and directing Crash, will do a three-week polish on the second draft of Sony/MGM's Casino Royale, originally penned by himself and co-writer Neal Purvis.
The following is a press release from EON Productions confirming that the title for James Bond's 21st aventure is Casino Royale, that it will be released in 2006, and that GoldenEye director Martin Campbell will return for the film.

Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, producers of the James Bond films, and MGM announced today that Martin Campbell will direct CASINO ROYALE, the 21st film in the 007 franchise.

This is Campbell's second time as helmer of a James Bond film. In 1995 he directed the hit GOLDENEYE which introduced Pierce Brosnan to the role of 007 with great success.

Wilson and Broccoli said:
"We are thrilled that Martin has accepted our offer to direct CASINO ROYALE. He is an extremely talented director and we believe he will help take our films in a new and exciting direction. He is currently finishing filming 'Legend Of Zorro', the sequel to 'The Mask Of Zorro', and will be joining EON Productions shortly to work on the development of the script with our writers, Neal Purvis and Robert Wade."

MGM Vice Chairman and COO Chris McGurk said:
"Martin is an incredibly exciting filmmaker. GOLDENEYE was a wonderful movie and helped reinvigorate the Bond franchise. We're thrilled to have him back to direct the newest Bond."

Born in New Zealand, Campbell moved to England in 1966 and made his directorial debut on the popular TV series' 'The Professionals' and 'Minder'. He moved to America in 1986 to direct 'Criminal Law' and 'Defenceless'. Following GOLDENEYE, he went on to direct 'The Mask Of Zorro', 'Vertical Limit' and 'Beyond Borders' and is currently directing 'Legend Of Zorro'.

CASINO ROYALE will be released in 2006 and distributed world-wide by MGM. No decision has yet been made regarding casting for the role of 'James Bond'.

From those at CBn, a description of the history of the 1954 novel-turned movie:

Casino Royale was first adapted in 1954 as a one-hour TV teleplay by CBS with American Barry Nelson playing the screen's first 007. Because Fleming had already sold the film rights to his first James Bond novel, Casino Royale was not part of the 1961 Cubby Broccoli/Harry Saltzman film rights purchase deal that was the foundation of the James Bond/Eon Productions franchise.

The rights passed from hand to hand until Charles K. Feldman announced he’d produce a rival Bond film to the Eon series. But this was at the height of Bondmania, and Feldman decided he couldn’t compete with Sean Connery, so in 1967 he and Columbia Pictures turned Casino Royale into a farce comedy starring David Niven and Peter Sellers. (Kaleidoscope, an excellent thriller made in 1966, used plot elements so strikingly similar to Casino Royale that it could almost be called an unofficial adaptation.)

Fast forward to the late 1990s when Sony (who acquired the Casino rights when they purchased Columbia Pictures) locked horns with MGM over disputed rights to the Bond film Thunderball. The settlement in favour of MGM not only returned the Thunderball rights to Eon, but Sony also surrendered their long-held rights to Casino Royale. This alowed Eon to finally adapt this first Fleming novel.

The original James Bond girl Ursula Andress has beaten modern pin-ups like Kelly Brook, Elle MacPherson and Angelina Jolie to top a poll of 100 beach beauties.

Ursula is best known for sexily emerging from the sea in 1962 Bond film "Dr No" – and is still loved by men more than 40 years later.




Sun-kissed Celebrity Love Island presenter Kelly Brook and Elle 'the body' MacPherson followed closely behind Ursula, proving the combination of feminine curves and classic beauty add up to a perfect summer stunner - reports The Sun.

Modern day Bond girl Halle Berry’s recent remake of the Ursula Andress scene in Die Another Day helped her into fourth position.

In the vote, the judges seemed to favour a natural and classic beach look - shown by the fact that surgically-enhanced Pamela Anderson did not make it into the Top 20.

Here’s the Top 20 winners in full:

1. Ursula Andress
2. Kelly Brook
3. Elle MacPherson
4. Halle Berry
5. Gisele
6. Cameron Diaz
7. Charlotte Church
8. Bridget Bardot
9. Angelina Jolie
10. Coleen McLoughlin
11. Bo Derek
12. Heidi Klum
13. Jennifer Anniston

Bookmakers slash odds on Clive Owen becoming James Bond 007 #6 18/1-2005

Bookmakers Tuesday halved the odds on Clive Owen becoming the next James Bond after he won a Golden Globe award for his role in the sex drama "Closer" - reports Reuters.

Bookmaker William Hill also made Owen 6-4 favorite to land the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for Closer at next month's Hollywood ceremony.

"Since winning the Golden Globe, we have had a succession of calls from punters who think he would make an excellent Bond," said a spokesman.

Owen is now priced at 4-1 from 8-1.



But "Van Helsing" actor Hugh Jackman is still 2-1 favorite to take over from Pierce Brosnan and land the coveted role of the world's most famous spy. Second favorite at 7-2 is Ewan McGregor.

 

 

Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen says she`s not James Bond girl material despite rumours

Gisele Bundchen may be a leggy Brazilian supermodel, but she's no James Bond girl. Actually, she's says she's kind of dull - reports NineMSN.



Bundchen denied rumours she'd been invited to play the love interest in the next James Bond film, following an appearance at Rio Fashion, a weeklong fashion event that showcases the autumn/winter collections of local designers.

"I never received that invitation (for the Bond film). You know what happens? I'm a very boring person. I work a lot, I go from home from work, I eat dinner, sleep. I don't take drugs, I'm not scandalous. So people have to start inventing things about me to publish in the columns," Bundchen told reporters during a brief press conference following the fashion show late on Friday night.



Bundchen also said she plans to promote events in New York next month to raise money for tsunami victims in Asia. She said she will organise a charity bowling event, and will ask fellow models to donate clothes for an auction.

"I'm concerned with social causes," she was quoted by the Estado news agency. "I will donate a lot of money."

It was Bundchen's first appearance at Rio Fashion, an event that she had passed over for years preferring instead to parade in Sao Paulo, where the fashion industry is more established and the designers are considered more serious.



Bundchen, who paraded for the Brazilian label Colcci, did leave open the possibility of participating in other film projects.

"I've read some scripts, but nothing is certain in the film industry. I don't want to be a professional actress, but I like to experiment," she said.

While visiting Rio, Bundchen taped a brief appearance in one of the local telenovelas.

 

 

Nov. 10, 2004

Campbell may raise glass to 007


By Liza Foreman
Martin Campbell, who helped to revive the James Bond franchise with the 1995 hit "GoldenEye," is in negotiations to direct the 21st installment in MGM's spy series.

Although MGM recently said the Bond film will not arrive in theaters next November, as originally scheduled, the project would be on track to meet a 2006 release date should Campbell come aboard.

Campbell, who is filming another major franchise -- the sequel to "Legend of Zorro" for Columbia Pictures -- introduced Pierce Brosnan to audiences as James Bond in "GoldenEye." However, Brosnan has said that he will not be returning as Bond, so Campbell could find himself introducing yet another actor in the role. Neither MGM nor producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson have commented on casting plans for the new installment.

Campbell's contribution to reviving the series in the mid-'90s made him the man for the current job, sources said Tuesday. Other directors who had been mentioned as candidates for the assignment were Paul McGuigan, who recently directed MGM's "Wicker Park," and Matthew Vaughn, Guy Ritchie's longtime producing partner who made his directorial debut this year with the British crime thriller "Layer Cake."

 

Sources close to fellow James Bond fansites Absolutely James Bond and CommanderBond.net are reporting that the script for Bond 21 is set to be based on the 1953 Ian Fleming novel Casino Royale.   The current drafts for the film (to be written by Neal Purvis and Robert Wade), as reported by these sources, are rumored to be based on the Fleming novel.

The sources did not indicate whether the film itself would be titled Casino Royale or if a location of filming would be Prague (as it was previously rumored to be).  If the film is made, it would be the third installment of a Casino Royale-related film.  The first installment, starring Barry Nelson as Bond was released as a made for TV movie on CBS in 1954, shortly after the publishing of Fleming's book.  The second installment in 1967 was a spoof starring David Niven, Peter Sellers, Woody Allen and Ursula Andress.

This news probably comes disappointing to Pierce Brosnan, a major supporter of a Royale based Bond 21, who recently announced his 'retirement' from the Bond franchise.  The news also opens up the door for veteran filmmaker Quentin Tarantino to take the helm as director.  Tarantino mentioned that he would love to make a Bond film based on the 1953 novel, and is going to submit his idea for a film to Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson.

All said and done, production of the 21st installment will not begin until a final agreement is found in the possible sale of MGM to Sony, Warner Brothers and other candidates.  This could delay the production of Bond 21 until 2006.

More on this news as more details are known...

 

Bond 21 James Bond 21 to Film in Prague? Sunday, July 18, 2004Variety has learned that executives on the next James Bond installment are keen on filming in Prague and have begun talks with studios and service companies. However, it looks like a decision may be waiting on the completion of a script.
Also, Universal has scheduled a September-February production schedule in Prague for its big-budget adaptation of the Doom video game. 20th Century Fox will be filming the Swiss-set Josiah's Canon, directed by Brett Ratner and starring Sean Connery, in the city this October.
The trade adds that Brian De Palma's Los Angeles-set Black Dahlia may shoot in the Czech Republic capital city. Director Wayne Kramer's Running Scared, a low-budget New Jersey Mafia film starring Paul Walker, will start production there in late June.
Liev Schreiber's directing debut, Everything Is Illuminated, starring Elijah Wood as a young man searching for the Ukrainian woman who saved his grandfather's life, began filming on Barrandov's Hostivar stages in mid-June. Roman

Bond-brud i världens sexigaste filmscen


Den sexigaste filmscenen genom tiderna om de brittiska tv-tittare får bestämma. Ursula Andress och Sean Connery i James Bondfilmen ”Agent 007 med rätt att döda”
Foto: UNITED ARTIST
Ursula Andress i gul bikini stiger upp ur havet i Bond-filmen ”Agent 007 med rätt att döda”.
  Det är den sexigaste filmscenen genom tiderna, enligt brittiska tv-tittare.   Att en 41 år gammal scen ur en Bondfilm skulle ta hem titeln som världens sexigaste var kanske inte vad arrangören Channel 4 väntade sig när omröstningen startade i oktober.
  Ursula Andress, 67, som Bond-bruden Honey Ryder, sopade banan med sina yngre filmkollegor, de flesta kvinnor i mer eller mindre avklätt tillstånd.
  Tvåa kom en lesbisk men dock påklädd kyss i den moderna omgörningen av ”Farliga förbindelser” med skådespelerskan Michelle Gellar, känd för det flesta från ”Buffy och vampyrerna”.
  På tredje plats kom Salma Hayeks förföriska ormdans i ”From dusk til dawn”.
  Men även tecknade figurer kan vara sexiga tycker britterna. På åttonde plats hamnade nämligen den kurviga Jessica Rabbit från filmen ”Vem satte dit Roger Rabbit?”. De övriga på 100-listan var alla riktiga människor, men några riktiga svenska filmer fanns inte med.

Zeta-Jones nya filmroll: Bond-brud


Vill hångla med 007.

HOLLYWOOD. Nu följer Catherine Zeta-Jones i Halle Berrys fotspår.
  Skådespelerskan är aktuell som ny Bond-brud.
  Hon har erbjudits en roll i den kommande 007-filmen "Everything or nothing".
  Zeta-Jones rapporteras vara så intresserad att hon frågat Sean Connery om råd.
  De har varit kompisar sedan de spelade in thrillern "Entrapment" tillsammans.
  - Catherine överväger att tacka ja. Om manuset är rätt och hon får spela en självständig kvinna kommer hon inte att tveka att hoppa på jobbet, säger en närstående källa till Zeta-Jones

Fakta:

Nästa film är den tjugoförsta i den officiella ordningen och kommer antagligen börja spelas in i början av 2005 och ha premiär i slutet det året.

Pierce Brosnan kommer att spela Bond igen.

Michael G. Wilson och Barbara Broccoli är givetvis inblandade och båda kommer att vara med och producera filmen.

John Cleese har kontrakt på denna och en film till, så han kommer att spela Q igen.



Troliga fakta:

Antagligen kommer även Dame Judi Dench (M), Samantha Bond (Miss Moneypenny) samt Colin Salmon (Charles Robinson) vara med.

Neal Purvis och Robert Wade har skrivit manuset till de senaste filmerna. Kanske skall de skriva även detta?

Förhoppningsvis skall David Arnold göra musiken även till denna film (hans fjärde i rad i så fall).

Mariah Carey could be in line to sing the next James Bond theme tune according to reports.

Rumours circulating in the US suggest that Carey has already agreed to sing the lead track from the 21st Bond film.

The film - which is scheduled to be Pierce Brosnan's last in the role - is in the early stages of pre-production but Carey could come on board if she gets a cameo role herself.

World Entertainment News Network reports that Carey is interested in a part in the movie on a similar standing as Madonna's brief recent appearance in Die Another Day.

"Mariah has had meetings with producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson," a source is reported to have said.

"She was asked if she'd consider singing the theme tune for Bond 21. Mariah said she wanted a part in the new film although the story hasn't been discussed yet."

Rykten:

Det har funnits rykten att filmen skall komma redan vintern 2004. Detta är dock dementerat från EON. Däremot har det kommit hörts att EON vill vänta ända till 2007 innan filmen skall komma, men det får vi verkligen INTE hoppas!

Ryktet att Martin Campbell skall regissera den nya filmen har dementerats av EON.
Campbell har regisserat en bondfilm tidigare, Pierce Brosnan's debut GoldenEye

Det ryktades om i april 2003 att den indiska skådespelerskan (och före detta Miss World) Aishwarya Rai blev tillfrågad om hon vill vara med i filmen . Detta har också dementeras av EON.
Andra som också ryktats få roller i den nya filmen är: Sångerskan Pink, Keira Knightley ('Pirates Of The Caribbean', 'Skruva den som Beckham'). Ingen av dessa rykten lär stämma...

Nästa film kanske utspelar sig (eller bara spelas in) i Sydafrika och Liverpool, England.
EON har dock dementerat detta också.

Sedan har vi vem som skall göra musiken.
Hittills har (bland annat) följande artister varit inblandade i rykterna: Mariah Carey , Eminem och Atomic Kitten

Till sist vill jag bara säga att EON har tidigare dementerat rykten, som sedan visats sig vara sanna bara för att behålla så mycket som möjligt hemligt innan filmen har premiär.

The non-Bond Bonds are Casino Royale (1967) and Never Say Never Again (1983).

It is generally known that the rights to the novel Casino Royale were sold to a producer, Gregory Ratoff in the early fifties for $1,000.* A television play was made from it, with Barry Nelson as Bond and Peter Lorre as Le Chiffre. Hence this title stayed separate and free when the rest of the Ian Fleming oeuvre was acquired for the movies. Much later Casino Royale was made into a big-budget comedy spy caper to 'Get on the Bond-wagon', as they used to say. Its producer was Charles K. Feldman, an agent who represented Ratoff's widow.

Never Say Never Again stems from a different situation. Also generally known is that in the late fifties Ian Fleming took a break from writing novels to develop a screenplay in conjunction with potential producing partners, who included English producer/writer Kevin McClory. That project, called 'Longitude 78 West', was never filmed. Fleming converted ideas from it into his book, Thunderball, and a court case followed, which in 1963 ended with film rights to Thunderball being awarded to Sean McClory. When it came time in the official series to film Thunderball, McClory remained part of the package. Exercising his rights, he essentially remade Thunderball in 1983 as Never Say Never Again. His producing coup, of course, was to successfully cast Sean Connery, which is why Never Say Never Again is often erroneously thought to be part of the series.
