Synopsis A stranger with no memory of his past stumbles into the hard desert town of Absolution. The people of Absolution don’t welcome strangers, and nobody makes a move on its streets unless ordered by the iron-fisted Colonel Dolarhyde (Ford). But Absolution is about to experience fear it can scarcely comprehend as the desolate city is attacked by marauders from the sky. Now, the stranger they rejected is their only hope for salvation. As this gunslinger slowly starts to remember who he is and where he’s been, he realizes he holds a secret that could give the town a fighting chance against the alien force.
Bond series producer Michael G. Wilson told the press in April that there had been no significant work done on the next James Bond film. What a difference a month makes.
CommanderBond.net points out that Wilson attended the Ivor Novello Awards in London this week where he spoke to British tabloid The Sun about the status of Bond 23. “We have started work on the new film, which I can’t say anything about. Daniel Craig is very keen to get going,” the producer said.
Wilson also revealed who he’d like to have sing the theme song to the next sequel. “I would love to get [Welsh singer] Duffy to sing the next tune. I think she is wonderful. Amy Winehouse would be good too.”
In an interview with IGN Movies last fall, Wilson revealed that the next Bond film would likely come out in 2011.

Director Marc Forestor on the Chile set of Quantum of Solace
IGN was a part of a small group of online sites who were invited to London last week to participate in series of special events leading up to the November 14 release of Quantum of Solace. The sites were there to represent the fans whom had submitted questions for Daniel Craig and director, Marc Forestor to answer:
Marc Forster
IGN: Our first question from the readers of IGN is, “Since Quantum of Solace cannot have a love story involving Bond because Vesper is supposed to have been his first and only true love, what was the challenge in order to make this one a unique story like its predecessor?”
Marc Forster: I thought there’s this incredible opportunity here because we ended Casino Royale with Bond being at a very vulnerable state and he was sort of at a place where I felt one could really take advantage of and really pick up and sort of go a little further, a little deeper into the emotional ground of Bond. And I thought in the same time that it’s fascinating because you know… I created the character of Camille [played by Olga Kurylenko] as sort of a mirror image to Bond and a reflection of him. Basically, what I think is interesting about Bond — and I think also was a part of the sort of the success of Bond — is that Bond always kept mystery around him, and this mystery keeps you interested in the character.
In a sense I don’t think one ever wants Bond to talk openly about his emotional feelings. I think it wouldn’t be right because there’s still this hard shell of this tough man, but inside there’s a certain vulnerability. So I created Camille’s character sort of more to be a mirror image of Bond than to have a relationship or anything. So there’s definitely a sexual tension, but above it all it’s more like that she is very similar to Bond and speaks the words Bond sometimes would like to speak and through that we can feel sort of what Bond thinks, and I thought it would be a nice way to express that.

The day is finally here! The most successful Bond film of all time, Casino Royale hits the DVD shelves today (March 13the, 2007). Daniel Craig is outstanding in the role of James Bond in his early years before achieving 007 status. Don’t forget to pick up your copy.
Synopsis: The dangerous quest for artistic greatness chosen by Truman Capote (Toby Jones), accompanied by lifelong friend and Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Nelle Harper Lee (Sandra Bullock) is outlined as he travels to Kansas to investigate the brutal murder of the Clutter family.
Throughout this six-year journey, the eccentric, hilarious and cunning Capote is definitively revealed: to satisfy his insatiable ambition, Truman consorted with his “Swans,” the glamorous ladies who ruled the upper strata of New York society, just as easily as he regaled wide-eyed Kansans with tales of Bogart and Brando.
A compelling study of the complex and tortured relationship that resulted between Truman Capote and convicted murderer Perry Smith (Daniel Craig), a bond formed in a prison cell that brought the destruction of Capote’s career, as well as his soul.
Based on the book “Truman Capote: In Which Various Friends, Enemies, Acquaintances and Detractors Recall His Turbulent Career” by George Plimpton.
Cast: Sigourney Weaver, Toby Jones, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sandra Bullock, Isabella Rossellini, Hope Davis, Juliet Stevenson, Mark Rubin, Steve Schwelling, Glover Johns Gill, Rey Arteaga, Justin Sherburn, Andrew Halbreich, Michael Panes, Frank G. Curcio; Directed by: Douglas McGrath
The Bond sequel will not be based on Fleming’s short story, Risico. Read on:
With James Bond proving to be more popular than he has been in years thanks to Casino Royale, the inevitable sequel to that film is already being hotly anticipated. Now, word has come from two of the writers of the film that contrary to previous reports, the follow-up film will not be based on the Ian Fleming short story Risico.
“That’s not the case,” Robert Wade and Neal Purvis tell The Trades, before adding that the current plan is to start shooting the tightly guarded screenplay (for what is at the moment only known as Bond 22) at the beginning of 2008.
The scripters also say that there’s currently no plan to reintroduce fan favorite characters like gadget-maker Q and ever-faithful secretary Moneypenny, both of whom were dropped for Casino Royale.
“Some people think they should be there, and some people know that they shouldn’t be there,” Wade says. “With the way Casino Royale ends, you know there’s still unfinished business for Bond. He may say, ‘The name’s Bond, James Bond,’ but there’s still a lot of stuff churning up inside him. So, if you’re going to explore that, and we’ve got this great actor to do that with, what you don’t want to do is suddenly clamp it down with all these familiar elements that keep your focus off him. He’s the great asset.”

The follow-up to Casino Royale has been revealed. Read on:
The follow-up to Casino Royale will reportedly be based on the Ian Fleming short story Risico, which appeared in his 1960 book For Your Eyes Only.
“Bosses were so pleased with how well Casino Royale has been received that work has already commenced on Risico at Pinewood Studios,” claimed a source for the British tabloid The Sun. “Some of the same characters will crop up again. But one of the main aspects will be to develop Bond’s complex personality.”
The problem with Risico is that its basic plot and characters was already used for the 1981 film version of For Your Eyes Only. In Fleming’s Risico, 007 is sent to Italy to investigate a heroin ring and crosses paths with the likes of Colombo and Kristatos, both of whom were featured in the Roger Moore movie.
It should be noted that, although A View to a Kill (another short story in For Your Eyes Only) and FYEO have both been filmed, neither movie truly used the plots from their respective source novels. Fleming’s From a View to a Kill saw 007 investigating the murder of a dispatch-rider; FYEO had M sending Bond on an “off the books” assignment to avenge the murder of his old friends, the Havelocks, by Herr von Hammerstein. The film featured the murder of the Havelocks and the inclusion of their vengeful daughter, but M’s employing 007 as a means to fulfill a personal vendetta was not used.
Fleming’s short stories 007 in New York and Quantum of Solace have never been referenced in any Bond film, and only a semblance of The Property of a Lady can be gleaned from the big-screen version of Octopussy. 007′s investigation of a female Secret Service double agent in that story could prove an interesting challenge for Bond in the next movie, especially in light of what transpired in Casino Royale.
