Baz to the rescue.
I hope.
I still wish they’d cast Sir Kenneth one of these times…
Branagh would be great as a Bond director.

It baffles me that he hasn’t been a part of anything Bond yet! He seems a natural fit to me. Whether it be directing or starring, I’d be elated for either.
I continue to hold out hope!
I’ve always thought Branagh was a better actor than director.
A FAR better actor than director.
Can’t get on board with the idea of Branagh doing a Bond film. That Jack Ryan film was simply horrendous.

And insanely forgettable.
I’m very much a fan of Branagh, on both sides of the camera, while I agree that his work on Jack Ryan wasn’t good, I very much like his recent work on Thor, Cinderella, and Murder On the Orient Express. I’d be on board for him to helm a Bond film but I think he’s already booked passage for Death on the Nile.
I actually liked his JACK RYAN film.
Oops.
Now, he previously denied being considered - so take this with a grain of salt. Probably just a good quote for him to draw attention to his new film.
This Hollywood Reporter article on Warner Bros 2019 slate says Warner’s is the current front runner for the Bond film rights…
Coming Soon says “Another potential big get for the studio is international distribution for the next James Bond film, the details for which are still being worked out.”
Which would point into Nolan´s direction, too…
WB would want Nolan - in fact they’ve demonstrated that they’re willing to spend HUGE amounts to keep Nolan at WB (see background of Interstellar)
And after the JUSTICE LEAGUE debacle they would love to get a working franchise.
Nolan loves OHMSS, which means he’s speaking my language when it comes to taste in Bond films.
One surely hopes so 
Yes, my language too. And he has yet to make a film I dislike.
I’m just worried that with Nolan, the movie would open with Bond killing the villain and the gunbarrel would be in the middle of the movie
LOL.
Yes, I’m not sure about Nolan.
He would try to make the best Bond movie of all time. But what if he succeeds? Where does the franchise go after “The Best Bond Movie Ever”. It’s interesting to think about what we actually want from each new 007 flick
Do we want an amazing hard-to-top classic? Or would we rather a solid adventure every 3 years?
A solid adventure every two years.
Like the Glen era.
