Next Bond film on hold due to MGM Sale


Dark Horizons is reporting that due to issues surrounding the pending sale of Metro Goldwyn Mayer, the next James Bond film is currently on hold. The film was scheduled to begin production late this year for a 2011 release. The last two entries in the long-running franchise, 2006's "Casino Royale" and 2008's "Quantum of Solace" were co-financed by Sony Pictures.

Here's hoping that the delay will allow the screenwriters of the new film to polish their work to match or come close to the level that the screenplay for "Royale" had. A super-rushed production on "Solace" no doubt hampered the script for that film (at least I would like to think it did).
