BOND 25 Is Reportedly Going Back To The Drawing Board Following Danny Boyle's Departure
As we expected, the departure of director Danny Boyle has had a huge effect on the production of Bond 25, as MGM and Eon begin searching for a new writer to join the project. More details past the jump.
When the announcement that Danny Boyle would no longer direct Bond 25 came out a few days ago, one of the biggest questions that arose was whether the film would still make its November 9, 2019 release date.
Now, that seems highly unlikely, as Variety reports that the film "is back to the drawing board" and notes that MGM and Eon are currently "looking for a writer or a writer-director to come on to the film."
As the trade explains, this likely means a major rewrite is coming, if Boyle's script isn't scrapped altogether. Likewise, we shouldn't expect the producers to use the draft submitted by Skyfall scribes Neal Purvis and Robert Wade.
Because of these developments, it will be incredibly difficult to hit the 2019 release date, as Bond 25 will reportedly have to begin filming by this coming January in order to stay on target.
