A few months ago, the franchise appeared stone cold dead. But not only has James Bond come back to life, now Bond 23 is actually a done deal -- there's even a release date. Sony Pictures Entertainment will distribute the next James Bond movie for MGM. The two studios have confirmed that the 23rd 007 movie, again starring Daniel Craig, has been given a Nov. 9, 2012 release date, and if that's not enough good news, MGM and Sony will also be co-financing and distributing Bond 24 at some future date. Sony distributed Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, but MGM’s recent restructuring threw the Bond series into chaos, with several studios duking it out for distribution rights. “After successfully working on the re-launch of the James Bond franchise with Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, we could not be more proud or privileged to continue our association with Barbara Broccoli, Michael G. Wilson, Daniel Craig, and the talented teams at EON and MGM,” Sony's Amy Pascal said in the statement. Now we need to see a title and a cast.
