| 1967's You Only Live Twice Featured The BEST Blofeld Donald Pleasence |
WhatCulture reports that co-scripter John Logan attended a BAFTA Screenwriters lecture where an audience member quoted him as once saying "Bond should always fight Blofeld" a decade ago and then asked if he would be back in the new film
With a wry smile he said "Bond should always fight Blofeld". Logan also said that "the production has two weeks rehearsal time scheduled into it which is unheard of in the film industry these days and even more so on a big budget action movie such as the Bond franchise."
Rumors of the return of Blofeld or more likely the establishment of a Blofeld-like villain (due to possible legal issues with using the Blofeld name) have been swirling ever since the franchise reboot in 2006. The last film, "Quantum of Solace", established a SPECTRE-style organisation named Quantum but we only saw a few of its lackies, not the person or persons in charge.
Both star Daniel Craig and director Sam Mendes have said the new pic will be a return to the classic Bond of author Ian Fleming's books.
Keep in mind though Logan's comment neither confirms nor denies anything
Judi Dench Javier Bardem Ralph Fiennes Ben Whishaw and Naomie Harris also star in the sequel
Patrick Marber Neal Purvis and Robert Wade co wrote the screenplay.
The film will begin shooting near the end of the year for its November 9th, 2012 bow.
