There was a leaked draft of the script that was actually pretty close to the final film with the torture scene swapped out for a poker game, which actually worked better than that torture scene. Anyhoo, in this draft Q explains slightly more about SPECTRE and that Silva was the IT, while Le Chiffre was the money. As usual, no one cares about Dominic Greene.
Thatās very fair and true.
Do we know who wrote the tube scene?

Great question - iād love to know!
Filming delayed until next year
Carefulā¦ I canāt find any other outlets reporting it and āSimonās Bizarre Columnā at The Sun isnāt exactly The Timesā¦
Why be careful? It makes sense. I tried to tell people about how the babyās arrival would mess the schedule of it all but all you lot were having none of it.
Iām getting tired of the long gap between films. The franchise is showing its age.

I say be careful for the same reason we didnāt bother posting an article like this from 3 weeks agoā¦
Ha, come on mate. Weāre all dying to hear a bit of news concerning this film, Iāll take anything I can get right now
Soooooo Ralph Fiennes just signed on to star in a film that begins shooting in āearly 2019.ā Discussā¦
Well if M is only there to give Bond his briefing, then this shouldnāt matter much. Though, the Craig films have had M play a much larger role, so this could bode badly for Bond 25.
More papers are reporting that the film is being pushed back. It could all be got air, of course, but I believe it for now.
Shame thereās always more delays in top of delays, these days. They waited for Mendes last time, now theyāre waiting for Craigā¦
If you look closely though, they are all just quoting the original Sun article. And one of the papers is The Express, which reported that Craig had been replaced by Hardy 3 weeks ago.
I just urge Bond fans to be extra careful about the kinds of news that is going to start coming out at this point in production. Some sources should carry much more weight than othersā¦
That article is from April Foolsā Dayā¦
Fair point. Pity Baz doesnāt report such things anymore.

Definitely something to consider when judging how much weight to give their reportingā¦
Baz should definitely be considered a good source, IMO. And he reported on Boyle a few months ago, so heās definitely still in the Bond game.
Cheers
If Rachelās pregnancy does push back Bond, perhaps the real reason is because sheās been cast in Bond 25.
Could she be Irma Bunt?
What if that was Boyleās āgreat ideaā that Hodge is drafting?
Sheās a good actress, so iād be happy with her as the femme fatale.
And i can certainly see that luring Craig back for one more.
Note: this is high speculation with nothing to base it on, but no harm in putting the thought out there.

I swear heās looking more like Sid James all the time.
At this point for me, Bond 25 is something to put at the back of my mind. When news hits, Iāll be there. But I donāt see anything happening on that front anytime soon, sadly. I hope I come to eat these words.
