James Bond producers interested in ‘pushing 007 boundaries’ after ‘risky’ Daniel Craig era

Promoting his new book The Lost Adventures of James Bond, Edlitz spoke of the Bond movie writing process.

He told Express.co.uk: “Three-time Bond screenwriter Bruce Feirstein told me that Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson know where the dead ends are in the scripting stage.

“While Richard Maibaum, who wrote 13 Bond scripts, talked about the collaborative nature of writing a 007 film.

“The screenwriter said that he would sit in a room with producers Albert ‘Cubby’ Broccoli, Harry Saltzman, as well as the director, production designer and editor and everyone would pitch ideas.”
