The Mail has quoted from an anonymous “movie insider”, who says that the 25th film opens with Bond (Craig), retired in Jamaica, being called back to action to fight a new villain.
Bond producer Barbara Broccoli told the Guardian last year that there would “never” be a female Bond.
The 25th Bond film – which is being shot in Italy and the UK – has been plagued by difficulties, beginning in October 2015 when Craig said he would “rather slash my wrists” than play Bond again.
It has just got to evolve, and the important thing is that the film treats the women properly. He doesn’t have to.
