Lazio Film Commission President Luciano Sovena has revealed that a key
sequence in Bond 24 is set to be
shot in Rome.
Sam Mendes is once again directing the film. Veteran James Bond screenwriters Neal Purvis and Robert Wade have returned to perform rewrites. The duo have been the early writers on the film series since 1999's "The World is Not Enough,"and they would often do the initial script drafts while other writers like Paul Haggis and John Logan would polish. The pair were set to retire from the series after handing in their early drafts of "Skyfall," with Logan subsequently taking over the later drafts. Logan was writing the latest adventure solo.
Daniel Craig is back as Bond--we will also see the return of Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw and Naomie Harris reprising their roles from "Skyfall" as M, Q, and Moneypenny.
Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson will produce the new film
The sequel is still targeting a November 6th 2015 release.
MI6-HQ has transcribed the key quote from Sovena using various Italian press sources:
"I met the producers of the Bond series, Barbara Broccoli
and Michael G. Wilson, and we discussed the project. One of the key
scenes, among the most spectacular in the film, will be a car chase in
Via Quattro Fontane.I'm already excited. I hope that the City streamlines the procedures
for the granting of permits, it would be a shame to miss this great
opportunity because of the bureaucracy."
