Bond producers EON are expected to announce at some stage soon (read: whenever they feel like it) that British actor Daniel Craig is to be the next James Bond.
* Definitely, maybe.
This story is a complete rebuttal of an earlier hecklerspray almost exclusive that Piece Brosnan is expected to remain in the role. Well, you only have to be right for a day in this business.
Back and forth like a bloody yo-yo this James Bond thing is. With no sign of let up, all this chit-chat’s undoubtedly doing nothing to dampen the producers’ spirits.
We have upped periscope in a number of entertainment hotspots and found this Daniel Craig thing to be fairly solid. At least as fairly solid as a completely nsubstantiated rumour can be anyway.
"Everybody who works at Eon Productions has been told Daniel is the new 007." sneaked an unnamed, unverified and perhaps even uneducated source. Just like they said yesterday about Pierce. Oh, our heads.
Craig has, apparently, been offered a contract for two new James Bond movies, which he’s already signed and clinked a class or two of Piper Heidsieck to. The important ‘All the Presidents Men‘ style confirmation is supposedly right around the corner.
It’s fair to say Daniel Craig was not the fanboys choice as 007. With Pierce remaining or former ‘Capital City’ yuppie Clive Owen floating their fully armed hydrofoil instead.
Still, what do they know? If they had their way Connery would probably be back with a rocket powered zimmer frame and exploding pill box.
Add to this the news that Sean Connery actually is going to return as James Bond, in a computer game, and the whole world gets an aneurysm.
hecklerspray will endeavour to you updated as and when further Bond developments surface. Unless they occur during mealtimes, breaks, social gatherings, The Apprentice, after six, before eight, or during nap times.
Other than that we’ll be right on it.
