It looks like everybody’s favorite British secret agent with a license to kill may have fallen on hard times. Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, producers of the Bond franchise, have announced that development on the next Bond film has been suspended indefinitely. The yet unnamed film would have been the 23rd in the series.
The suspension comes as a result of MGM’s continuing financial difficulties and inability to sell the studio. Hopefully, if development continues, there will be enough money allocated to the production of the new Bond film to maintain the high standards viewers have come to expect. We hate to imagine Bond having to adhere to a shoestring budget.
