And what about Bond?

Haggis, who both worked on the script of Casino Royale as well as its sequel Quantum of Solace, complained about the shift of the recent film, after the producers had decided last month to be seen once the sale of MGM Studios production.

"I do not know what is going on so," said Haggis. "I only know that at some time with [director] Sam [Mendes] is to be filmed."

Although he admitted was not too impressed by Quantum of Solace to be, he had nothing but nice words for long-term bonds producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson left.

"I had written a script and they decided to move in a different way," he said. "I liked Casino Royale. I like these people. Barbara Broccoli is a wonderful producer, so I wish them all the best."

Haggis next directing project is the thriller The Next Three Days, with Crowe, Liam Neeson, Olivia Wilde and Elizabeth Banks, and is the director that include "lots of action and an approximately 60-minute chase.

In the original language

Und wie steht es mit Bond?

Haggis, der sowohl am Drehbuch von Casino Royale als auch an dessen Fortsetzung Ein Quantum Trost mitgewirkt hat, beklagte sich über die Verschiebung des jüngsten Films, nachdem die Produzenten im vergangenen Monat beschlossen hatten, erst einmal den Verkauf des produzierenden Studios MGM abzuwarten.

„Ich weiß nicht, was damit los ist", sagte Haggis. „Ich weiß nur, dass er irgendwann mal mit [Regisseur] Sam [Mendes] gedreht werden soll."

Obwohl er zugab, nicht allzu begeistert von Ein Quantum Trost gewesen zu sein, hatte er nichts als nette Worte für Bonds langjährige Produzenten Barbara Broccoli und Michael Wilson übrig.

„Ich hatte ein Script verfasst, und sie entschlossen sich dazu, einen anderen Weg einzuschlagen", erzählte er. „Ich mochte Casino Royale. Ich mag diese Leute. Barbara Broccoli ist eine wundervolle Produzentin, deshalb wünsche ich ihnen alles Gute."

Haggis nächstes Regie-Projekt ist der Thriller The Next Three Days, mit Crowe, Liam Neeson, Olivia Wilde und Elizabeth Banks, und wird dem Regisseur zufolge „jede Menge Action beinhalten und eine ungefähr 60-minütige Verfolgungsjagd".

There is absolutely nobody left to come forward to defend QoS. They all are disowning it and feel free to say it out loud. What happened? What a difference 2 years make. If it goes on much longer I don't think they'll bother calling Craig for a third. This is the reaction is at two years then in two more it is going to be complete poison to suggest continuing that movie.

Daniel Craig will slate this film one day too when he's no longer Bond.

Lets check what whos chimed in. We got one of the writers, the director of CR, Mr White. Who else that was in the eon family? It was universally pan by any critic worth his salt, funny to look back at those reviews trying to prop QoS up.

Jesper Christensen(Mr. White) has claimed he was misquote. Now I'm not so sure.


I'll be interested to see,when QOS debuts on US TV, if it gets the sort of hype that CR did.
