Hey Bastards. BOND 23 just keeps getting fucking cooler. Sam Mendes directing, Javier Bardem as the villain, a Bond film that is more about the story than the action, and now word from the UK’s Daily Mail that Mendes just sprung a surprise on the cast.

From the article:

“As the likes of Daniel Craig, Judi Dench, Javier Bardem and Ralph Fiennes sat leafing through their scripts, each stamped ‘Highly  Confidential’, with every page watermarked and coded, they must all have been wondering: who on earth could the Oscar-winning director be bringing in who might leave them shaken and (pleasantly) stirred?

Finney, who has been in remission from cancer of the prostate for  several years, will play a Foreign Office mandarin with powers over the Secret Intelligence Service, described to me as a reasonably big role and full of class.”

Is that fucking badass or is that fucking badass? This flick just keeps getting better and better.

SEE YOU ON FORTY DEUCE,

G
