Creating another damaging blow to a movie that already had a hard time bringing back Daniel Craig to the role of James Bond, director Danny Boyle has exited the project due to creative differences. Boyle, who seems to run the gamut with his choices of films, was an excellent choice for the upcoming 25th entry in the long running 007 franchise. He would have added something new and different to the project. Now, it seems that his ideas didn't quite align with Barbara Broccoli and the other people behind the upcoming movie. It was sent out on Twitter just a little while ago.
This 25th Bond would have marked the exit of Daniel Craig as rumors are already swirling about who will take over the role. Craig hasn't been very happy being locked in to such an iconic character and is finally leaving after this finishes production. Finding a new director at this late stage of the game will definitely put a damper on the movie's release which was scheduled for November of 2019.
