Bond and Trek 2 movement...

Things continue to move forward on Bond 23. Eon Productions confirms that actress Naomie Harris – so good in 28 Days Later – has met with Sam Mendes and the filmmaking team. Reports continue to persist that both Javier Bardem and Ralph Fiennes have been in talks about playing the villain. Great to hear things are continuing to progress. No word on the story yet. Now if we can just get a title!

My favorite quote of the week – as painful as it may be to wait for a sequel to Star Trek (December 2012, so we hear), word from a Super 8-promoting J.J. Abrams is the kind of thing we just don’t hear enough of. When discussing the move from mid-summer 2012 to December, Abrams commented, “I care much more that it be good than it be ready… I don’t think anyone wants a movie on time that’s not worth your time. We want to make sure it’s done right.”
