HOT 007 NEWS

Peter Morgan, writer on Bond 23, has resigned over disagreements with director Sam Mendez.

Judy Dench has confirmed that the next Bond movie would be her last - however given that the movie is taking time to get off the starting block it is not certain that Dench will appear at all. Daniel Craig may also push himself out of the running as he is about to start filming, Cowboys and Aliens.

The Book of Bond written by Alastair Dougall and will be released as a 160-page hardback on 3 May (UK) and 16 August (US). Retail price is £9.99 / $15.00.

British newspaper claims that the working title of Bond 23 is Property of a Lady, which was actually the title of a Ian Fleming short story.

Isn't PROPERTY the original title of OCTOPUSSY? I guess I should Wikipedia it.

I hope Craig returns, I'm not ready to switch 007s yet.

Property of a Lady was the auction short story in the Octopussy collection. The Octopussy film gave a nod to the auction aspect...

It's been bandied about as a title before but I'd like to see them use it because of the Fleming title. I think it works too and gives the same feeling as the classic titles
