I had a feeling they were pursuing Monica Bellucci a long time for a 007 role. She's gorgeous.

And only Sam Mendes could get away with that 'crazy auteur' hairstyle. It looks good on him.

She's 50? Hot damn!

Yea, she's always been a stunner.

Would have been a perfect Bond girl in any of the Brosnan films.

Is Monica Bellucci the first Bond girl to be older than the actor playing Bond?

I'm not sure about the other girl Lea something. I did a search on her and she's a bit homely looking. I guess they'll glam her up like at the press conference. Hard to beat the striking looks of Berenice Marlohe.

Honor Blackman (Pussy Galore) is 5 years older then Connery

Wow that's too bad. She would have worked better than Terri Hatcher in that movie!

Would have even been a better nuclear scientist than Denise Richards too!

Forgot about that. Even still, Con looked older than her.

It was announced last week in the big press conference that Mr. White was returning, did you miss that part then?

Should have gone for this in Skyfall instead of the massively undercooked plot in that film. Would have been worthy of a 50th anniversary.

Hell, yeah! Jesper Christensen's back! Hell, yeah.

"You've no idea who we are".

But what's this? I just read that Stuart Baird is not returning. BOO!!!!!!

Obviously they didn't have the rights to SPECTRE at that time, so saying that "they should have bla bla" is just a massive statement of bollocks!

No rights?

Do the inventors of a series need to acquire rights to the same series? And if they did, they could have done it two year earlier.

Erm, it's SPECTRE/Blofeld, not the series. Know anything about Kevin McClory? Even after his death in 2006, there was an extensive legal battle with his estate, which only was only resolved when Danjaq and MGM won the court case in November 2013.

The length of the struggle makes EON/Sony's acquirement of the rights for Casino Royale in 1999 (which MGM traded for Spider-Man) look like a walk in the park by comparison.
