Well, I can live with that. But truly, I'm not a Leiter fan (be it Jeffrey Wright or anyone else).

I think that this is probably the only good news I've heard so far regarding Bond 22. Jeffrey Wright was underused in Casino Royale, and an actor of his quality should have more screentime than he had the last time around.

QUOTE(MkB @ 3 January 2008 - 15:51)  Well, I can live with that. But truly, I'm not a Leiter fan (be it Jeffrey Wright or anyone else). I agree. But I am fine with this news. He was good as Leiter and so it will be nice to see him again in Bond 22. About the same amount of screen time would be good, although I guess Bond and Leiter will start to become friends in this one. --DaveBond21--

Hmmmm... perhaps they'll take a page from Live and Let Die; I'm sure old Leiter doesn't need an arm and a leg, anyway, right?

Jeffrey Wright is a fine actor, and his turn as Felix Leiter was a definite bonus in Casino Royale. I'm really looking forward to seeing him return. This is great news.

Excellent news!
I enjoyed his portrayal of Leiter, despite the fact that it was a fairly small part, so I am excited to see what Bond 22 brings for the character. It's also nice to finally have proper continuity with the character, as opposed to a different actor always playing him (not counting David Hedison).   |

2 of the nice surprises for me in Casino Royale were:-
1) I had forgotten that Felix was in the movie and so I got a surprise when he introduced himself to Bond (as the film-makers intended for the audience) and 2) I didn't know who Jeffrey Wright was, at the time, so didn't have my memory jogged about Felix being in it...

The fact that P&W's work on the film was entirely thrown away isn't good news? That it seems we'll have a rollicking, classy chase in Siena isn't good news? There hasn't been much news on BOND 22, admittedly, but I think it's all been good so far.  |
