Christopher Nolan 親口否認將執導第 25 部《007》電影

知名諜報電影《007》先前確認 Daniel Craig 將會繼續出演 James Bond 一角，並傳出了副標題將會叫做《Shatterhead》，故事改編自 1999 年的原著小說《Never Dream Of Dying》。此外還傳出驚人消息，電影系列製作人 Barbara Broccoli 竟在訪問時提出 James Bond 有可能改為女性演員出演的可能性，造成廣大影迷爭相議論。

先前被傳出有機會執導第 25 部《007》電影的名導 Christopher Nolan，直到近日接受 BBC Radio 4 的 Desert Island Discs 節目中，親口否認他為第 25 部《007》電影的導演，但也順勢表達他對於《007》的熱愛。相信影迷也希望有朝一日，能看到這位知名英國大導接下《007》電影導演一職，延續 James Bond 的傳奇故事。

I won’t be the man. No, categorically. I think every time they hire a new director I’m rumoured to be doing it.

I’d love to make a Bond film at some point and I think those producers – Barbara and Michael – they do a tremendous job and Sam Mendes has done a terrific job the last couple of films, so they don’t particularly need me. But I’ve always been inspired by the films and would love to do one someday.

I love the character, I love the films, I’ve been very inspired by the films as anyone who’s seen my films will find embarrassingly obvious. But you’d only take on a franchise like that if you could bring something completely new to it, if that were needed. And I think at the moment they’re doing fantastically well without me.

第 25 部《007》電影據傳將於 2019 年正式上映，有興趣的讀者不妨留意 HYPEBEAST 的追蹤報導，亦可順勢閱讀打破影史紀錄！《黑豹》北美首週票房突破 2 億美元消息。
