They have really fucked up the Craig run. Sony/the Brocolis have had some real problems starting up these films.

Casino Royale came out in 2006. This will be the fifth Craig film and it comes out in 2020. Between QoS (underrated) and Skyfall (overrated) I think it was 4 years. Between this one and Spectre, there will have been 4 and a half years.
Brosnan had roughly 2 years between his films.
As I said in the very post you quoted: "Sony/the Brocolis have had some real problems starting up these films. "

While Daniel Craig is set to reprise his role as James Bond in the next film, the franchise is set for a shake-up, with reports claiming that black British actor Lashana Lynch has been cast as 007 – taking over Bond’s secret agent number after his character leaves M16.

but cmon it’s really Bond, James Bond
pretty stupid
charlize Theron did Atomic Blonde last year, I enjoyed it
love kill bill
love women, love women in empowering roles
not this, this is an obvious placating move.
And who cares what reason lies behind it? As long as it makes a great film in the end?
maybe in his next life
when people think 007
they think the different actors who have played James Bond, beautiful Bond Girls, Bond Villains
Most Bond fans are older, I just see a backlash from the hardcore fans
It's better than the worn out "Bond, you have to go rouge and solve this outside of the MI6" like every Bond and Mission Impossible movie does nowadays zzz
they are fucking this up Royally
I sort of want to agree, however, by making this information available before launch, it may pique interest in the franchise with some demographics that wouldn’t previously considered seeing a Bond movie in the theatre. I guess it’s a bit of a fine line.
Isn't it the "00" part that signifies licensed to kill, and the last number the specific agent? That makes Bond 007, and other agents would be 001, 002, etc. The series has had a 006 before.
I haven't seen a Bond film since Skyfall but am interested to see what comes of this.
But now Bond is retired, so another agent gets his number.
But - HE COMES BACK!
Saying you haven't seen a Bond film since Skyfall sort of implies there have been a few sequels, but there has only been Spectre after Skyfall. Which sucked. But this one ties into that one, so you should watch it - and the one-shot opening is nice.
I would have thought they would retire the number, sort of like retiring a jersey. It's not like they're going to run out of numbers
In Ian Fleming's James Bond novels and the derived films, the 00 Section of MI6 is considered the secret service's elite. A 00 (typically read "Double O" and denoted in Fleming's novels by the letters "OO" rather than the digits "00") is a field agent that holds a licence to kill in the field, at his or her discretion, to complete any mission. The novel Moonraker establishes that the section routinely has three agents concurrently; the film series, beginning with Thunderball, establishes the number of 00 agents at a minimum of 9, with the likelihood of more.
