James Bond 21 in `development hell` according to Variety
"With six months to go before the 21st installment of the franchise should start lensing, MGM and Eon Prods. still don't have an actor to play the suave British superspy, a director or even a shooting script. And the lack of all three is fueling the rumor mill."
"For several months, Pierce Brosnan has been distancing himself from the project and pundits have taken that to mean he's retired as Bond. But Brosnan, who is not under contract to play Bond for a fifth time, has not yet been made an offer to come back -- nor has any other thesp been offered the role."
