Danny Boyle is No Longer Directing BOND 25
It looks like Bond 25 is going to have to find a new director because Danny Boyle has decided to drop out of the director's chair. The official announcement came from the official Twitter account saying that he left due to creative differences:

I was actually looking forward to seeing what Danny Boyle would do with the James Bond franchise! I assumed he was going to do something a little different than what has been done before and obviously, the producers weren't ready for what he was looking to bring to the franchise. That's kind of a shame.
The script for the film was written by screenwriter John Hodge who previously worked with Boyle on Trainspotting and The Beach. It will be interesting to see if they still plan on using that screenplay after another director is hired to replace Boyle.
Are you happy or sad to see Boyle drop out of Bond 25? Are there any directors you'd like to see take on the franchise?
The film is currently dated for November 2019.
