The Bond 26 news landscape
There was more Bond 26 non-news this week.
The British Film Institute honored director Christopher Nolan at an event. Eon boss Barbara Broccoli was present. Of course, the subject of what's (not) happening with Bond 26 came up.
Deep, deep in the Baz Bamigboye story on the Deadline entertainment news site, Broccoli was asked if there was anything new on the Bond 26 front. Naturally, the answer was no.
"(T)here's nothing I can tell you about the next Bond film," she said. "There's nothing. Nothing is happening yet."
This, of course, matches other "nothing is happening" quotes from Broccoli over the past few years. Gregg Wilson, associate producer of the last three Eon-made Bond films and the son of Eon's Michael G. Wilson, told The Express the same thing in November 2023. "No plans on making the next Bond at this stage," he said. "There will be another Bond someday, but we're not actively developing it."
On social media, there were the typical fan reactions. One of the more amusing came from @TheTchaikovsky on X/Twitter: "It's quite all right, really. She's having a rest. We'll be going on soon. There's no hurry, you see… We have all the time in the world."
There's nothing any Bond movie fan can do about it. You might as well get a good laugh.
