James Bond 25 UK release date REVEALED – Two whole weeks before the US
It’s been rumoured for quite sometime and now the official 007 website has confirmed Boyle will direct Daniel Craig’s last outing as James Bond.
Joined by Trainspotting screenwriter John Hodge, production on Bond 25 will begin on December 3 this year at Pinewood Studios, London.
Previously the US release date was announced for November 2019, but there was concern this would be pushed back due to Craig focusing on the new addition to his family and Boyle on his Richard Curtis rom-com.
Nevertheless MGM and Eon productions have not pushed the movie back and now the US date has been announced as November 8, 2019.
Meanwhile lucky UK fans will get to see Bond 25 a whole two weeks earlier on October 25, 2019.
According to the 007.com, this is “the traditional earlier release in the UK”, presumably because Britain’s where Bond hails from and where the movies are made.
Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson have also made a statement.
The said: “We are delighted to announce that the exceptionally talented Danny Boyle will be directing Daniel Craig in his fifth outing as James Bond in the 25th instalment of the franchise.
“We will begin shooting Bond 25 at Pinewood Studios in December with our partners at MGM and thrilled that Universal Pictures will be our international distributor.”
The chairman of Universal Pictures Donna Langley added: “Universal is extremely proud to collaborate with Michael, Barbara and MGM on the international marketing and distribution of Bond 25.
“The unparalleled combination of Danny’s innovative filmmaking and Daniel’s embodiment of 007 ensured we simply had to be partners in the next chapter of this iconic series.”
Previously Sony Pictures distributed the Daniel Craig Bond movies, so this is quite the change.
Also having John Hodge on as screenwriter means this will be the first Bond film not penned by Neal Purvis and Robert Wade since 1997’s Tomorrow Never Dies.
