 Finally, the endless rumors of Eiders Elba, Tom Hiddleston, or freakin' Jillian Anderson being the next James Bond can stop, because just a couple of hours ago, this happened. Uh, Daniel Craig, will you return as James Bond? Yes. I could not be happier with this news, I had a good gut feeling that Craig was going to return for quite a while now, and now that it's finally confirmed we can start focusing on some other speculation. As most Bond fans will know, recently the release date for Bond 25 has been revealed to be on November 8th, 2019, in the USA. And as has been tradition for many years, the USA gets screwed and European countries will get it a couple of days earlier. Not much else is known about Bond 25 at this point. We know that Neil Purvis and Robert Wade are once again returning to write the script and that it's produced by Eon, and that's pretty much it. As for the title, my favorite pick has been Shatterhand, pretty much since seeing Spectre. As most iHeart Bond fans will know, Shatterhand is another nickname for Blofeld in the novels. Plus I think it would be really cool to have all the Bond movies of this decade be made up of one word starting with an S. I also wouldn't mind if Sam Mendes returned to direct Bond 25. I think he did a fantastic job on both Skyfall and Spectre, and I think it would be pretty cool to have him directed all the Bond films of the 2010s, much like John Glenn directed all the Bond movies of the 80s. As for the plot of Bond 25, I am in the minority I think of fans that is hoping to see the storyline that they started and created with Craig's movies continued in the next film. Now Danny Boy has confirmed in the interview that this will be his last time returning and that he's hoping to go out with a bang. And I certainly hope so too, because if you look at the swansons of Connery, Moore and Brosnan, they weren't exactly the greatest hits, so let's hope Craig's final Bond film will do better. Traditionally though, if there is a gap between Bond films that takes four years or more, they tend to be really exceptional Bond films. Take a look at GoldenEye, Casino Royale and Skyfall. As for now, let's just celebrate that Craig will turn in two years time to reward us with the next entry in the series. So here is to Daniel Craig. It's yours and you subscribe to my channel.
