Five Hollywood studio are currently battling over which one will make the next James Bond film .

The New York Times reports that MGM and Eon , the company that see to it the film rights , are presently take pitches from several major studios for a one - film contract to allot the 25th film in the Bond dealership .

accord to the slice , Sony , which had a bargain for the previous four films , vend the rightfulness holders brag its great successes with those films and deep ties to the enfranchisement . The studio reps even held the meeting on a reproduction set from Dr. No , to show their passion . Also vie for the right wing are Warner Bros. , Universal , twentieth Century Fox , and Annapurna , all of which will be doing similar pitch . ( Just in all likelihood not on replica Dr. No sets . )

The Times reports that casting , or recasting , is not being talk about in the merging , as it remain the producers ’ trust that Daniel Craig will reelect for one more movie .

So what does this all think to the general moviegoer ? Not much . Whichever studio MGM and Eon terminate up choosing will still produce a high - end hamper film that ’ll be seen on millions of filmdom . This is more a battle for the inside track at a globally proven franchise , something studio are desperate for these mean solar day . The news also means anything you ’ve listen or read about Bond 25 being cast , indite , or location - scouted is all bullshit . No one is doing anything until these right are in order . And with the deal being only for one movie , there ’s no warrant this whole matter wo n’t happen again in three or four years after this next moving picture comes out .
