The next actor to take on the iconic role of James Bond in Bond 26 is still unknown after the ending of No Time To Die. However, many possible actors could take on the role, with Aaron Taylor-Johnson being one of the favorites to portray 007 despite Henry Cavills unofficial James Bond trilogy movie. There are also many possibilities for who could play the villain, but now that a new James Bond era is coming, a woman is just as suitable as 007's new antagonist.

In a recent interview with Happy Sad Confused, podcast Lady Bird star Saoirse Ronan revealed that she could not see herself in a Marvel Studios movie but Ronan would prefer to be cast in a James Bond movie as a villain. As 007 fans await updates on James Bonds casting, Ronan could conceivably be cast as a prominent female villain. Ronans wishes are too good to be ignored,...

The new James Bond film, Spectre, leaves lots of questions behind. We try and answer some of them here...

This article contains spoilers for lots of James Bond films, including Spectre.

The new James Bond movie will have been out for a week before we know just how well it's done at the box office, but based on the hype, the critical acclaim and the extended nine-day opening 'weekend' (including 60% of the whole UK box office take on Monday, despite only showing after 7pm), it's likely that Spectre will break records for this year.

The 24th instalment, and Daniel Craig's fourth outing as 007, comes on the heels of the billion dollar success of Skyfall, currently the highest-grossing film of all time at the UK box office and the highest-grossing British film of all time, full stop. With Sam Mendes back in the director's seat, the shadow...

Daniel Craig's latest Bond movie Spectre is out now, and it's positively jam-packed with Easter eggs and callbacks to 007 movies from yesteryear.

Grab yourself a Martini and prepare to get very nerdy about James Bond with Spectre's many, many homages. Massive Spoilers, naturally, will follow...

1. The classic gun barrel is back

Daniel Craig has filmed separate gun barrel sequences for each of his 007 movies. In Spectre he does it again, but this time it's pulled to its rightful place at the front of the film and apes the classic Maurice Binder design first seen in Dr No.

2. Goldfinger's white tuxedo and red carnation

Remember that pre-title sequence from Goldfinger where Sean Connery infiltrated a drugs ring, blew the whole place up then stripped down to a white tuxedo?

Craig wears the exact same suit - complete with red carnation - in Spectre. Other movie stars who've rocked the look?...

Director/writer: Stéphanie Joalland. Cast: Dakota Blue Richards, Karl Davies, Jack McMullen and Brigitte Millar. The Quiet Hour is a science fiction drama. From Stéphanie Joalland, the film takes place during an alien invasion. Characters can only emerge from their hideaways for two hours a day and the local cannibals take advantage of these 120 minutes. Meanwhile, a desperate family struggles to survive, in these dire circumstances. Strangely, there are a number of suicidal characters, in this outing; they crack under the many pressures. And, the focus of the film is more on interaction and dialogue, versus action or story elements. The film is slowly paced through early acts, but the film is well produced, overall. Most science fiction fans will enjoy this indie film outing. Sarah (Dakota Blue Richards) is the protagonist of the film. The opening scene involves Sarah, burying her father. He has fallen victim to an alien attack.

Daniel Craig is back to work on the new James Bond film "Spectre" in the U.K. following an accident earlier in the week. Movie extras were reportedly told to go home on the day Craig was injured.

Craig sprained his knee while shooting a fight scene at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire. However the shoot has not lost any time or filming days according to a source, with Craig returning to work on Saturday.

In other news about the film, Jesper Christensen has reportedly completed all his work on the film as Mr. White. Christensen apparently shot all of his work in the UK for a scene that was "damn fine" he tells BT.

A few more casting additions have been made to the film with Belgian actor Marc Zinga, German actor Detlef Bothe and British actress Brigitte Millar having scored roles as adversaries in the upcoming movie.

Plot: An intimate look at a young man who is forced to come to terms with his relationships when he is diagnosed with HIV.

Who’S It For? Those who like dialogue-heavy movies may be taken with Jackson’s way with words. However, it’s hard to think of a group of people who deserve to be put through this ordeal.

Overall

David is Dying puts me in the awkward position of asking, why does it take David so long to die? Can’t he do us all a favor and make it happen just a little bit faster? There are plenty of movies that suffer from awkward pacing and muddled storytelling,...
