According to a recent tip from reader zencat (who blogs over at thebookbond.com) Stuart Baird, favored editor of Martin Campbell, will be returning to the 23rd James Bond production.

If the rumor has any substance then Baird will be ousting Tariq Anwar who has worked with Bond 23 director Sam Mendes on American Beauty. Recently, Anwar affirmed that he would be editing the James Bond film in an interview with the Indian media.

Baird works consistently with the GoldenEye and Casino Royale director on many non-Bond Campbell films including Zorro, Edge of Darkness and Green Lantern.

Bond 23 location rumor sparks as Israel and Britain sign filming deal

Nov 4

Posted by M in Locations, Pre-Production, Rumors | No Comments

According to the British Bond site MI6 Israel and Britain signed a cooperation agreement in the field of cinema on Wednesday after 10 years of intense negotiations.

Israel’s Foreign Ministry estimated that British films may start being filmed in Israel very soon. One option that is being considered is shooting parts of the next James Bond movie in Israel.

It seems unlikely that EON would have made any decisions on filming locations – based on the very murky status of a script draft, after Peter Morgan recently admitted to not handing in more than an outline to the James Bond producers. However, as the cliche goes: never say never (again)! Other rumors (prior to the shutting down of production to make way for the MGM bankruptcy) included location scouting in the Middle East, namely Afghanistan.
