Although script issues threatened to push BOND 24's release date to 2016, it appears Neal Purvis and Robert Wade have finished "punching up" the script for Sam Mendes' next Bond movie. According to several sites, the duo have turned in the script, and production should start by late November or early December.

This means casting should start soon, and Schmoes Know is claiming BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR and MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: GHOST PROTOCOL star Lea Seydoux is the top choice for a lead role in the upcoming Sam Mendes film. The site also believes there's a chance Seydoux might end up playing Miranda Frost (although her version will be different compared to Rosamund Pike's from DIE ANOTHER DAY), based on a casting breakdown the received back in March.

Obviously none of this has been confirmed, but what are your thoughts on Miranda Frost possibly returning for BOND 24 with Lea Seydoux as the character?

BOND 24 is scheduled to hit theaters on October 23, 2015.
