via Belloni: JB26 in talks with Edward Berger, Denis Villeneuve, Edgar Wright Jonathan Nolan & Paul King. Cuaron out. Jun 19, 22:06
Presumably Jonathan Nolan would be writing for his brother. {nm} Jun 19, 22:07
Jonathan is a director too {nm} Jun 20, 05:41
Yeah... 7 episodes of television...no way MGM would give Bond to a first time feature director. {nm} Jun 20, 05:44
He's been a showrunner twice. If you dont think he's in consideration then you should talk to Belloni. Jun 20, 06:19
This will probably go to Paul King. He's worked with producer David Heyman before, similar to Cuaron. {nm} Jun 20, 07:12
A showrunner is more of a writer-producer than a director. {nm} Jun 20, 07:20
used to be fairly true. then the Hyphenates came for Prestige TV and the Suits said "It is good" {nm} Jun 20, 10:59
Don't see how DVILL can start JB26 earlier than CNOLA. {nm} Jun 19, 22:22
Maybe he can convince Warners to delay Dune Messiah.. doesn't it take place a long time after the original Dune book? {nm} Jun 20, 05:36
Yes but they way they are casting it means they are adapting other books too Jun 20, 05:40
in my head: "Hey Chris! I'll trade you Dune:Messiah for JB26." 😁 {nm} Jun 20, 08:56
If Aaron Pierre will be Bond, they should get Steve McQueen {nm} Jun 20, 05:45
But out of that bunch I'd prefer Berger or Wright... anyone named "Ed" basicallyi :) {nm} Jun 20, 05:45
Paul King is the one mention that is really odd {nm} Jun 20, 06:22
I thought the opposite because as mentioned above, he's worked with Heyman quite a bit already. {nm} Jun 20, 07:12
Wright seems odd, since he walked from Ant-Man and I assume Bond's producers would have similarly tight reins. But what do I know. Jun 20, 07:42
