Casino Royale - The
21st James Bond Movie
By Rod Collins
Casino Royale, the 21st James Bond film, is due to start shooting shortly
and is to be released November 2006. It is already a hot topic amongst
fans of the 007 franchise, with the new Bond, Daniel Craig, generating
much debate amongst fans.
Fans of the original Ian Fleming books will be hoping for a more authentic
portrayal of both the character and the book. The producers seem to have
been reluctant to take a risk with the formula in the past, presumably
for purely financial reasons. The time has come now were they, perhaps,
have no choice other than to bring in a new era.
We hope to see a more realistic and gritty film, less gadgets and explosions,
more dialogue and less of the quips. Something of an opportunity was
lost when the very real possibility of a Tarantino/Brosnan collaboration
fell through. The director of Goldeneye has returned and is charged with
delivering us a new Bond. His work on Goldeneye resurrected the franchise
so he has the qualifications to do it again. Speculation is, as ever,
rife as to leading ladies and Bond girls. The charcter of Vesper Lynd
will be the most crucial female role and we expect it to go either to
a very big name or a complete unknown.
Time will tell whether they have the courage to make a film worthy of
the original creation of Ian Fleming - let's hope they do.
