Well just read this over at Dark Horizons.
The rumours kept spreading throughout news media outlets yesterday about Pierce Brosnan departing the 007 franchise and suggestions from Aussies Hugh Jackman & Eric Bana to Brits Jude Law & Clive Owen cited as potential replacements. Now at last the talk has been quenched.
LatinoReview contacted MGM who confirmed the rumours are NOT TRUE, Brosnan is still very much 007. Further quenching the talk is an article in today's Variety which cites that Brosnan has just reupped his deal with MGM for his DreamTime production company, hardly a move of a company and star who have "bad blood" running between them.
Brosnan's deal is expected to include a sequel to his 1999 remake of "The Thomas Crown Affair", the action vehicle "Mexicali", and a fifth go as Bond in the next flick due out November 2005. Dreamtime is developing "The Matador" with Pierce outside of the lion studio but the company will remain based at their Santa Monica offices.
