Director Danny Boyle Exits 25th James Bond Film


Less than three months after Danny Boyle was hired to direct the 25th film in the James Bond franchise, 007 producers announced Tuesday that the Oscar-winning filmmaker had parted ways with the production.

Michael G. Wilson, Barbara Broccoli and Daniel Craig today announced that due to creative differences Danny Boyle has decided to no longer direct Bond 25, the film franchises website said in a terse statement. No other details regarding Boyles exit were announced, nor was a replacement announced.

Its also unclear whether Boyles departure will effect the Bond 25s release date, currently scheduled for October 25th, 2019 in the U.K. According to Variety, producers were in the process of hiring the latest Bond girl and villain ahead of the December 3rd production start date when Boyles exit occurred.

In May, producers hired Boyle to direct Daniel Craigs final turn as Bond; Boyle and Craig previously shot a short 007 film that was included as part of the 2012 London Olympics opening ceremony. Boyle recently completed work on a Beatles-inspired comedy that is set to open September 2019.

Boyles longtime collaborator John Hodge who penned Boyle films likeShallow Grave,TrainspottingandThe Beach was hired to write Bond 25 based off an original idea. The status of Hodges script following Boyles departure is also unclear.

In other Bond news, actor Idris Elba, long rumored to take over the spy role after Craig gives up the role, dismissed the persistent reports hes the next 007. When asked by Good Morning Britain whether hell play Bond, Elba succinctly responded, No.
