In 2012, James Bond Returns

A while back, it was beginning to look like the end of days, at least for MGM. They were going under, The Hobbit seemed like it would never see the light of day, Cabin in the Woods was being buried alive, and James Bond was knocking on his own grave. Luckily, Spyglass Entertainment has signed a deal to help MGM out with their upcoming films. That means, among other things, that the next film in the James Bond franchise will be released in November of 2012, a mere two years from now. It's still unclear whether or not Daniel Craig will return, or if Sam Mendes and Peter Morgan will continue to be involved. It all comes second to the fact that Bond isn't going anywhere.

'Spyglass' to Run 'MGM'?

Remember how I felt so sure that the next James Bond film as well as the two Hobbit films would never come. It luckily turns out that I may be wrong, as Spyglass Entertainment is supposedly close to a deal to run the studio in charge of those projects, MGM. Ofcourse, the deal could fall apart at the last second, once again leaving MGM in ruin, but there's a very likely chance that it won't. This would mean that all of the projects that the studio has had on hold can finally go into production. It also means that their completed films, including Cabin in the Woods and the remake of Red Dawn, could be making their way to the big screen sooner than anticipated.
