JUDI DENCH COMMENTS ON HER TIME AS JAMES BOND'S BOSS "M"

26/10/2013

Seven time "M" actress Judi Dench has recently commented about her time as James Bond's boss. She admits she was spoiled by the filmmakers...

"You know, I had a wonderful time, but you have to be realistic. Would MI6 really not have given me the push by now, there aren’t [enough roles], considering the amount of people who are my age. But then there never have been. Look at Shakespeare: there aren’t enough women parts in Shakespeare. You feel very, very lucky if you get to play any. You feel very lucky indeed."

It has recently been confirmed that the role of "M" will be fulfilled by Ralph Fiennes in the fourth-coming 24th James Bond adventure, scheduled for release in the UK on 23rd October 2015

BRINGING BACK THE HUMOUR... BOND 24

27/8/2013

Whilst Daniel Craig and his wife Rachel Weisz are gearing up for their Broadway production 'Betrayal', they were interviewed by Vulture about the show. Eventually, the conversation turned to BOND 24.

"The shot where Bond leaps atop a speeding train in pursuit of a killer and straightens his cuffs: That came to Craig practically in mid-flight. He’s really fucking hurt himself jumping on top of a train, and he just wants to straighten himself up. That’s what it’s about: poise. To be more concerned about the way you look at the moment of crisis. The weirder the place it comes from the better it is.”

According to Craig, he had the entire crew reset the sequence so that the addditional scene could be shot. Vulture also asked Craig if his interpretation would now be 'ready to take on the trappings and suits of 007 with less chafing'. To which he replied...

“Hopefully we’ll reclaim some of the old irony, and make sure it doesn’t become pastiche. I can’t do shtick, I’m not very good at it. Unless it kind of suddenly makes sense. Does that make sense? I sometimes wish I hammed it up more, but I just can’t do it very well, so I don’t do it.”

NAOMI HARRIS TALKS ABOUT EVE AND BOND'S RELATIONSHIP

24/2/2013

Naomie Harris has given an interesting insight in to the debate whether James Bond and Eve hooked up in Macau in "Skyfall". The shaving scene left a lot of viewers wondering, "did they, or didn't they?"

On the topic of whether Eve and Bond actually had sex after the cut-throat razor shaving scene, Harris told the Empire podcast: "That scene actually got cut short. It was originally cut so that you would know categorically that nothing happened, and then they re-edited it so they left it a bit more open."

On where she would like the Moneypenny character to go in future instalments: "I'd like her to go back into the field, I think, because I got so much stick for being a terrible shot, a terrible driver, not really a great agent. I want to prove everyone wrong."
