Skyfall is the highest grossing James Bond movie ever with over $1 billion in global ticket sales, so, obviously, the producers want to bottle whatever happened in that movie and hope for lightning to strike again. This includes having Sam Mendes back to shepherd the project.
But due to his other obligations, like his theatrical productions, he won't be able to take on Bond 24, even if he wanted to. The question is, does he want another go at the Bond franchise?
Mendes was on record saying that he didn't want repeat himself so this time away is actually a good thing for him and the franchise.
He can take all the time in the world because the Bond producers are willing to wait, and they are confident they can get him to return.
"We will get him back," producer Barbara Broccoli said. "We haven't given up hope... Maybe not for the next one... but we will get him back again."
According to MGM chairman Gary Barber, the next Bond movie will arrive in theaters "within the next three years."
As for who will direct the next one, Guy Ritchie is favored, according to bookmakers William Hill. Is Ritchie a good choice to replace Mendes? Share your thoughts below.
