News Daniel Craig signs up for Bond 25, Christopher Nolan in talks to direct

To be fair, that site does have a source, /Film.

/Film is a notorious news "aggregator" website, infamous for both taking stories and republishing / rewriting them without attribution, and very often flat-out making shit up.
 
And she's still the greatest Bond girl imo.

And despite his many failings, Lazenby is the perfect Bond for this film.
I think Lazenby gets a bad rap. I would have liked one more outing with him as Bond.

And that made-for-TV Man from UNCLE sequel doesn't count! ":lol:

^ A Bond fan site? Are you freaking kidding? Variety, the BBC, and official EON statements constitute confirmation - nothing else.
Don't be so quick to knock them, they're quick to call out bullshit on stories. To whit:

Then there is the Independent newspaper which in turn quotes the Hollywood Reporter which I've heard of:

A shit, I do not give. Craig's return has been rumored since before Spectre came out. This thread was started a month ago, with a link to an established news site declaring said return a fact - and yet, there has still been no official confirmation. Well, I'm bloody sick of the wanking over will-he-or-won't-he. Wake me up when it's reported, beyond any reasonable doubt, who will be starring in the next movie. Until then, all tabloids, fan sites, and trending tweets can piss the hell off. :p

Yup seems like the "leak" of info came from the president of the US Network Showtime.........it confirms talks are happening with Craig and a deal is likely, but perhaps not DONE.

I tried to see if that interview was available, it might shut up some of the 'Doubting Thomases' out there.

It still doesn't prove anything until its confirmed by the parties involved. You would have thought if the deal was signed SOMEONE would confirm it by now. Hammering out details and the money I guess.

You shut up. ;) Does it seem likely that Craig will return for at least one more flick? Yes, but if it were an easy deal to make, they'd have done it years ago.

If the president of a TV network says that a project they're working on is delayed because one of the actors involved is doing something else, I take that as confirmation that the actor is question is doing something else.
 
^ And who could blame him?!

If I were as rich as Craig, and had such an amazing wife, I'd have a pretty astronomical price for an arduous-foreign-shoot-plus-publicity obligation, too. :p (And that's not even factoring in their kids and families.)

By this logic, the fact that Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 4 entered active development, with multiple scripts drafts written and casting negotiations undertaken, should have been taken as confirmation, as late as December 2009, that that movie was happening. Mind lending me your DVD of SM4 for a few days? ;)

Not saying it won't happen but working around a schedule is not confirmation, that IS proof they are trying to get a deal done.
