For the Ian Fleming Estate to pass the baton of writing 007 novels from Anthony Horowitz to Kim Sherwood, it took a stellar proposal with just enough heart, thanks to child Kim’s magazine-clipping-scrapbook report on Fleming. With Double or Nothing, she introduces new Double Os to care about: doctor Johanna Harwood (003) and chess prodigy Sid Bashir (009), locked in a love triangle with the Mia Bond; and ex-soldier Joseph Dryden (004), linked to quantum computer Q, as they outwit a billionaire holding the world hostage. Sherwood’s hands-on research had her racing in the Alpine A110 S sports car, exploring the Barbican in London, and bringing Bond into the 21st century.

It’s a gloomy Monday afternoon in Westwood and Phoebe Waller-Bridge is wrapping up Deadline’s cover shoot. Fresh from the Fleabag stage in New York, in two weeks’ time her brainchild Killing Eve will sweep the BAFTAs, but of course she doesn’t know that yet. For now she’s hard at work on a very famous, typically male-dominated franchise.
“Congrats on the Bond job,” the make-up artist tells her, during a last-minute touch-up.
Waller-Bridge is surprised. She seems to almost blush. “Oh, thank you,” she grins.
The Bond job is a big deal. Following a special request from Daniel Craig, Waller-Bridge is currently polishing the script for the newest installment, due for release in 2020 and directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga, with the working title Eclipse.

Across 24 previous 007 films, James Bond has tangled with women of every background imaginable: some every bit his equal (see Michelle Yeoh in “Tomorrow Never Dies” and Sophie Marceau in “The World Is Not Enough”), and some who’ve felt dropped into his spy adventures as little more than eye candy with next to nothing to do. That hit or miss record is almost certainly because the Bond film franchise has historically only ever had one female screenwriter: Johanna Harwood, who helped launch the series with writing credits on its first two films, “Dr. No” and “From Russia With Love.”
Until now that is: “Fleabag” star Phoebe Waller-Bridge has polished the script for Bond 25, currently shooting in Jamaica, after she helped bring a more contemporary edge to the spy genre by creating the acclaimed BBC America series “Killing Eve.”
So does Waller-Bridge want to address the 007 franchise’s historical wrongs against women?...

We still don’t have a title for “Bond 25,” but we’ve got a baddie (“Bohemian Rhapsody” Oscar winner Rami Malek), a Bond lady (Ana de Armas from “Blade Runner 2049”), and a premise for Cary Joji Fukunaga to direct. Obviously, it was less than what we were hoping for, as producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli announced the full cast during a live stream event Thursday from author Ian Fleming’s GoldenEye retreat in Jamaica (the spiritual home of the franchise where “Dr. No” and “Live and Let Die” were filmed).
Eschewing the usual Bond launch press conference, they were joined by James Bond star Daniel Craig and Fukunaga, who answered a few fan questions from Twitter. Meanwhile, Malek provided a quip via a video feed from New York about “making sure that Bond doesn’t have an easy ride.”

“Fleabag” and “Killing Eve” creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge has been brought in to polish the script for the next James Bond film, Variety has confirmed.
News of Waller-Bridge’s involvement on the currently untitled Bond film, the 25th in the long-running franchise and the fifth to star Daniel Craig, first appeared in Britain’s Observer newspaper on Sunday. A source with knowledge of the situation confirmed that the British writer was indeed taking a pass through the script and that director Cary Fukunaga was fully aware of the decision. The source said production remained on track to begin at the end of April.
Waller-Bridge’s involvement came at the direct request of Craig, according to the Observer, which said Craig felt the script needed a polish to add more humor. The Emmy- and BAFTA-nominated writer is known for her offbeat, caustic humor and strong characterization.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge will reportedly take a crack at polishing the Bond 25 script, representing the latest turnover.
Bond 25 appears to be getting an injection of modern quirkiness to its script, which has passed through the hands of a sizable number of screenwriters by now.
Phoebe Waller-Bridge has been recruited by the proverbial MI6 of MGM to “liven up” the script to the still-developing 25th James Bond movie, reports The Observer. The move reportedly occurred at the behest of star Daniel Craig himself, who wants to bring the wit of Waller-Bridge – an actress and writer, notably the creator of BBC America’s smash spy series Killing Eve and starring creator of the Amazon Prime comedy, Fleabag – to the nearly 60-year-old Bond film franchise.
Moreover, it appears that early talks about Waller-Bridge’s contribution to the script have already taken place. With Waller-Bridge currently in New York making the...

"Fleabag" creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge has been roped in to lend her offbeat style to the script of the new James Bond film, known as of now as Bond 25. According to The Guardian, Waller-Bridge has been specifically requested by actor Daniel Craig, who plays 007, to bring her wit and quirkiness to the screenplay. Craig, who lives in New York with his wife Rachel Weisz, is a fan of "Fleabag", which reached the end of its second series last week, and also of "Killing Eve", which Waller-Bridge developed.
Sources close to the film in the Us said that while in New York she discussed with Craig how to improve the script of Bond 25, which the 007 actor felt needed some "polishing", by introducing more humour and the offbeat style of writing she is best known for.
Before Waller-Bridge, there has only ever been one female writer - the Irish-born Johanna Harwood,...

Back in 2012, our staff decided to group together and come up with a list of the best films in the 007, James Bond franchise. With Spectre rolling out this weekend, we decided to republish the article. Let us know which is your favourite, and be sure to check out our review of Spectre here.
#1: From Russia With Love
Directed by Terence Young
Written by Richard Maibaum and Johanna Harwood
1963, UK
50 years later, and with twenty three “official” entries, From Russia With Love represents the very best of the Bond franchise. Skyfall is the closest to be considered, at best – almost equal to what was achieved in ’64 – but From Russia With Love is still unparalleled. Although it is the second in the series, and although it feels like no Bond film that followed, it is the film that solidifies all the Bond elements into a formula – a template that carries on,...

Dr. No
Directed by Terence Young
Written by Richard Maibaum & Johanna Harwood
1962, UK
Author, Ian Fleming had been seeking out a movie deal for nearly a decade until the rights for his novels were finally bought by producers Harry Saltzman and Albert R. Broccoli. Little did they know they would change the landscape of spy-action cinema forever with the release of Dr. No.
Dr. No was the first James Bond novel turned into a film, though it was the sixth novel in the book series The film was adapted by Wolf Mankowitz (who went uncredited by request, fearing the film would bomb), Johanna Harwood (the first and only women screenwriter of the franchise), Berkeley Mather, and long time contributor Richard Maibaum. Arguably Dr. No is one of the closest cinematic interpretations of any Bond novel in tone and plot. The changes they made were mostly cosmetic save for some minor...

I’m a month late in writing this up, but I want to give a seriously laudatory shout-out to the good people of Cinema Retro for their latest issue of Movie Classics—a Cinema Retro Special Edition Magazine dedicated to the first James Bond film, 1962’s Dr. No.
Cinema Retro/Movie Classics dedicates a 148-page special edition magazine to Dr. No.
The magazine and online site Cinema Retro offers some of the most amazingly researched and slickly packaged features on 1960s and 1970s cinema that I’ve ever seen and though this latest issue has been available for several months, it certainly warrants attention and respect right now.
I ran into Cinema Retro editor-in-chief Lee Pfeiffer at a press event in late January and he was nice enough to slip me a copy of the Dr. No special and I’ve gotta tell you, it’s one helluva magazine!

In the second of our Favourite Bond series, Philip French falls for the unselfconscious charm of Dr No: a modest thriller with Sean Connery as the tough, stylish hero
Someone once said that the best Raymond Chandler novel is the first one you read, because between the debut of Philip Marlowe in The Big Sleep (1939) and his last significant appearance in The Long Good-bye (1953), the books are pretty even in quality and there's nothing quite like the initial impact of Chandler's style, Marlowe's company and their colourful southern California locale. The same is not true of his devoted follower, Ian Fleming, whose first half-dozen James Bond novels are far superior to those that followed – being more realistic, better plotted and altogether less fantastical. Casino Royale is arguably his best book, and when eventually it was filmed with Daniel Craig in 2006 (there had been a sad, jokey, non-canonical version in 1967), it...
