Obviously, you have joined the rest of us that have past out of the "desirable" demographic segment.
It appears that, if true, they will be appealing to whatever the "Britney" generation is called.
BTB, I heard a couple of authors of a Bond book a year or so ago. Sounded interesting in that they had the stories on
Flemming's relationship with the producers, how the quality of writing is inversely proportional to the gadgets and special
effects, product placements, etc. Can't recall the title, though.
Already been done:
Bond is ageless in his adventures but not as Fleming developed him. The last Fleming book was "The Man with the Golden Gun". we learn that Bond was born in 1919 and had entered WWII as a callow yute!
It's 2004 and he is 85 years old!!!!
Maybe a screenplay where Sean Connery could play him at his "real" age is in order. He could chase the Golden Girls while riding his Aston Martin Rascal. No more Morland Cigarettes since he now has emphazema. His Silver Cigarette case is used for his stash of Viagra. He doesn't pack the Walther PPK anymore since he has "the palsy" and his hand shakes uncontollably.
Britney can be his grand daughter, by Moneypenny, who is attending Hogwarts! Mel Gibson can be the evil SPECTRE leader who has succeeded Blofeld.
Well you get the idea. Anyone want to pitch this to CBS?
I could think of two roles they might write for her probably not beyond her talents, and that she could play as straight dramatic roles, something of which her career is not blessed with an excess.
They'd never do it in a hundred years.
