Script - Although
a first draft for the "Jinx" movie has
been completed, the script still is undergoing amendments.
Halle Berry took receipt of the draft back in July shortly
before the annual ComicCon where she said, "we just
got the script last night, the first script and I hear
its really really good".
Halle Berry - Even though Halle Berry played the
Jinx role in "Die Another Day", she is as yet
un-contracted for the "Jinx" film. Problems with
the current draft of the script need to be addressed before
casting can begin. Berry's current workload of projects
means she would be unlikely to start shooting until Fall
2004 at the earliest.
Colin Salmon - US tabloid and UK a
breakfast television have been touting Colin Salmon has
signed on to the "Jinx" film.
Salmon played MI6 aide "Robinson" in "Tomorrow
Never Dies", "the World Is Not Enough" and "Die
Another Day". The first alleged "official" news
came four weeks ago in US entertainment columns, later
caught on to by TV reporters. GMTV in the UK today announced
that Salmon had been cast alongside Berry as "official".
Eon told 'KungFooKing' this was not the case and Salmon
has not been cast in the film, nor has any other actor
or actress.
Release Date - Due to the amendments required on the
script, no shooting dates or release dates have been set
yet. Press rumours of November 2004 as a release date are
untrue.
As with the Bond series, Eon Productions will helm the
project under the badge and financing of MGM. |
