Sony pictures and MGM have finally struck a deal to co-finance and distribute worldwide the next James Bond film, tentatively dubbed 'Bond 23'. Still reviving from their recent bankruptcy woes, MGM has been shopping the Bond franchise around to several studios. When talks between MGM and Paramount (who was at the forefront of the competition) broke down over distribution fees, Sony was quick to snap up the multi-million dollar rights, having already played a role in the re-launch of the franchise with 'Casino Royale' and 'Quantum of Solace'.

 

MGM execs Gary Barber and Roger Birnbaum had this to say:

“Sony Pictures is the ideal studio partner for us as MGM re-enters the filmmaking business. We have longstanding relationships with Michael and Amy and look forward to what promises to be a prosperous future together.”

 

In addition to 'Bond 23' - expected to be in theaters November 9, 2012 - they also plan to join forces for the next installment (also simply designated 'Bond 24') under a similar arrangement. Sony's 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo', as well as their forthcoming 'Total Recall' remake are assumed to be a part of this new partnership, but no deals have been explicitly made.

dont forget QoS also lacked the style and suave of casino royale. the first craig film felt like a mature bond movie wheras QoS felt like they wanted some over-the-top action set-pieces but still wanted to retain a realistic feel, and for me, it didnt work. i had fun watching it, but something was always missing. in a bond film you cant be over-the-top and lack the style and visuals.

Javier Bardem as the one of the villains is a great casting choice!

@Cthulhu - I feel that QoS failed because it tried too much to be another Pierce Brosnan or Roger Moore film, with the quips and gadgets and stuff. I preferred the more serious and edgier tone of Casino Royale.

Fungusmonkey, how was QoS similar to the classic Bond? It was a poor mans Bourne.

They better have a good villain this time.
Comment by Mr. Jumbo on April 14, 2011 at 8:18pm
I still would kill to see Javier Bardem as the villain.
