In a recent report by Variety, John Logan, the solo writer for the next two Bond movies may be writing BOND 25 as a sequel to BOND 24, similarly to Quantum Of Solace being the sequel to Casino Royale. This has also let to speculation that we may see the continuation and finale of the QUANTUM organisation first introduced fully in 2008's Quantum Of Solace. Rumour has started that BOND 24 and BOND 25 are to be shot back-to-back and released seperately like Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2 and Back To The Future Part III. Although we highly doubt the producers would allow that. Logan worked on "Skyfall" with the team of Neal Purvis and Robert Wade who had worked on the franchise's scripts back to 1999's "The World Is Not Enough." BOND 24 has an estimated release date of November 2014 and BOND 25 in 2016 as the series is trying to pump a new Bond film every two years like normal. Click here for more updates on BOND 24 Screenwriter John Logan has signed on to write BOND 24. He is currently working solo instead of his co-writers Neal Purvis and Robert Wade. John logan has worked on all of the Bond films since The World Is Not Enough (1999).
According to recent reports, Logan has already began writing a first draft and an outline plot has already been presented to the producers. Shooting is expected to begin within the next 12 months for the film to be released around late 2014. MGM and Sony Pictures will finance the next two films in the series and is trying to pump a new Bond film out every 2 years. The media seem to be pretty certain that Sam Mendes will return for BOND 24 (which is already in pre-production), but Mendes has hinted that this may be his only Bond film. Last November, at the initial press conference, Sam Mendes said that he would be up for another Bond film if all goes well with SKYFALL but with a recent interview with Time Out he has said otherwise.
"I've enjoyed it enough to do it again. I think the choice is in the audience's hands. If people love the movie and they want to see another one from the same people who brought you Skyfall, then that would mean a lot to me. I would feel like, 'Well, actually there are people who really want to see it.' But I feel like I've put everything I want to do with a Bond movie into this Bond movie. I would have to feel the same again to do another one. So, it would take a lot of thought to try and make it as special to me as this. I'm knackered, but I've loved it."
It has been confirmed that BOND 24 is already in production but recent reports have said that the 24th film may come sooner than expected as the series is trying to get back into the 2 year cycle.
That would place Bond 24, his fourth film, around November 2014 - the release window that Sony were hoping for. When asked by MTV if Bond 24 will begin production sooner rather than later, Craig said: "Ask the producers. I don't know. I think they'd like to [speed up the timetable], and I think that would be the plan." "That was too long last time, although I quite enjoyed the gap, but it's too long. As long as we've got the script and we're ready to go, there's no reason why we can't start shooting."
