007 Gets His Gadgets Back?

007 Gets His Gadgets Back?

Haggis gives an update on the Bond 22 script.
September 20, 2007 - Paul Haggis has hinted that Bond 22, which he is now rewriting, may feature the return of the sort of gadgetry eschewed by the previous James Bond film he scripted, Casino Royale.



MI6.co.uk and CommanderBond.net both report that the Oscar-winning filmmaker appeared Wednesday on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson to tout his new film In the Valley of Elah when the host inquired about Bond 22.

Haggis informed Ferguson that he was currently on page 45 of the script, which he clarified was "no where near" the halfway point of the story. According to MI6, Haggis "joked that 'shooting doesn't start until December, so I have plenty of time', and hinted that traditional Bond gadgets may come back in the new film - 'they might, they might, but I won't tell you', he teased."

The scribe also revealed that he would finish the script in Italy, which he is looking forward to since it is 9 hours ahead of L.A. and no one can pester him on the phone.
