Production on the 23rd James Bond movie has been suspended.
Michael Wilson and Barbara Broccoli - producers on the movie - claim the future of film studio MGM is halting suspension on the project, which will be Daniel Craig‘s third outing as the British spy. In a statement, the pair told Variety, “Due to the continuing uncertainty surrounding the future of MGM and the failure to close a sale of the studio, we have suspended development on Bond 23 indefinitely. We do not know when development will resume and do not have a date for the release of Bond 23.

‘Valkyrie’ Debut Delayed
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: MGM, Action, Drama, Period, Political, Filmmaking, Upcoming Releases,
Valkyrie, a movie already plagued with production issues, has just given us another reason to be wary. It’s now been linked to two of the most cringe-inducing words in the film industry: delayed release. The Tom Cruise biopic about a German officer who plotted to take down Adolf Hitler will now premiere October 3, 2008. Valkyrie was originally slated to open June 27, unfortunately Bryan Singer (The Usual Suspects) has yet to shoot an integral war scene.
So let’s now officially add ‘date change’ to the ever-growing list of problems. (Items already noted include Scientology haters, destroyed footage and injured extras.) I predict a Suri fashion faux pas - or maybe even locusts - will trip things up next.
