Skyfall was a big success for the James Bond franchise, but Sony/MGM's early hopes to get the next 007 film -- currently called simply Bond 24 -- out by 2014 seem to have been dashed.
According to Reuters, MGM Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Gary Barber told investors in a conference call yesterday that they "look forward to developing the script soon and signing a director. We are hoping within the next 3 years it will be released."
Of course, Skyfall director Sam Mendes' decision to not take on the sequel surely didn't help the studio's intention to fast-track Bond 24. So what are we looking at now? A 2015 or 2016 release? Still, it was four years between Quantum of Solace and Skyfall, and look how that turned out. Maybe sometimes it's better to give these franchises some breathing room between installments.
