Martin Campbell on next James Bond film: Casino Royale

Martin Campbell the director of new Bond Movie ‘Casino Royale’ finally spoke about the movie with a leading newspaper.

In Casino Royale James Bond thwarts a dangerous Russian spy from winning a baccarat game worth millions.

“There are things that will have to be changed from the original novel. The Cold War elements will have to be reconfigured, for example, but ‘Casino Royale’ will be a grittier, tougher and more realistic Bond movie.”

“We’ll be getting away from the huge visual effects kind of films. In the new film, Bond is essentially starting out in his career, and has just recently become part of the double-0 section.”

“The idea is to put a bit of the dash back in Bond. By the end of the movie, the character will have been forged into the wiser, harder Bond we know. I’m looking forward to humanizing Bond a bit.”

KGB agent Le Chiffre captures Bond and threatens his manhood in an effort to extract information.

So, its out. Next Bond film will be very unlike the recent Bond flicks in term of huge special effects. The new James Bond flicks will be gritty spying movies of good old time.
