BOND 25 UPDATE

BOND 25 Update

During the filming of a controlled explosion on the set of BOND 25 today at Pinewood Studios, damage was caused to the exterior of the ‘007 Stage’.

There were no injuries on set, however one crew member outside the stage has sustained a minor injury.

Conceived in 1976 by production designer Ken Adam to house the set he had designed for the interior of the Liparus supertanker in The Spy Who Loved Me (1977), the original ‘007 Stage’ was later destroyed by a fire in 1985. Rebuilt and reopened in January 1985, with the new name ‘Albert R. Broccoli 007 Stage’, in time for the filming of A View To A Kill (1985). Another fire occurred on 30 July 2006 after the production of Casino Royale.

Filming on BOND 25 begins in Norway

BOND 25 masked Gunman

After months of press speculation and rumours surrounding the production of the as yet untitled 25th James Bond film, it would appear that filming has finally begun in Nittedal, 20-miles north of Oslo in Norway. The scene involved a masked gunman chasing a blonde young girl across an ice lake. The situation described in the shooting script as: “A child shoots an intruder. She is chased by a 2nd intruder and runs onto a frozen lake.” The scenes very likely forms part of a flashback for Madeleine Swann's character, who described this story to Bond as they make their way by train to Blofeld's desert hideout in Spectre (2015). Although director Cary Fukunaga nor any principal players were present at the location, the action is the first concrete evidence that filming on BOND 25 has begun in earnest. With major casting still to be announced one can only speculate as to who the masked gunman is, although the girl clearly represents a young Madeleine Swann who will be played in BOND 25 by Léa Seydoux.
