Bond producers want Brosnan back?
Posted on Mon, 4-Apr-2005

After all the rumours, all the speculation, those gazillion auditions, and of course, bad blood, is Piece Brosnan able to return to the Bond franchise?

According to a scooper for Dark Horizons, Sony are apparently looking at snagging Brosnan back, fearing a newcomer to the series might be a bit of a cinematic wound - a'la bringing in Timothy Dalton in the late 80's.

"...ultimately, the filmmakers would like Pierce Brosnan back. All the stuff we heard about Brosnan being out is just a ploy from both camps. The negotiations between Brosnan and Eon came to an end because, in the last year, things were up in the air, thanks to all the organizational changes taking place", says a scooper for the site.

"Brosnan/Eon camps are still going through the motions of bluffing each other: an echo of the old poker game that Cubby Broccoli went through with Roger Moore. Moore frequently announced that he wouldn't be back".

Apparently, "the mood around here (at least for now) is that he'll be back. Hence, the reluctance of the filmmakers to come right out and announce that they have parted ways with Brosnan. If anything, they've kept the door open by not making any casting announcements in the recent press release. So much money is at stake and the word is, SONY are not in a gambling mood. They could lose more with an unknown actor, or with an experienced but unpopular actor. They're well aware that you just can't place any actor in this role; and with Brosnan's star power and successful track record ($1 billion from four films), he's currently the strong money-maker for the Bond films".

The scooper says it's likely Brosnan will be reinstated for "Casino Royale" and possible Bond 22 as well.

I read that one, it's on Mi6 too.. I'm not sure if Sony has the power to dictate such massive decision... I want it big time, but I think that the Broccoli's won't accept it

Pierce still probably wants a bigger paycheck than they want to dish out.

I'm not sure, if they over 35, he might agree

I think either way there is alot of money being gambled, although not as much as if they were to recruit a new Bond actor instead.

well, a new one would always settle for less, but I feel they should keep Pierce for at least one more

I agree, I think he still has at least one more Bond left in him.

but then he really is getting too old

Croatian actor Goran Visnjic is being seriously considered as the sixth 007. He has reportedly been in multiple meetings with "Casino Royale" director Martin Campbell throughout March.
