Christopher Nolan talks James Bond, praises Mendes and EON

It's not secret that acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan admired the Bond films, but he was recently asked again about Bond and the possibility of helming a 007 production. Nolan admitted that he had had talks with the Bond producers, but that nothing had been forthcoming.

Speaking to The Daily Beast in the course of promoting "Interstellar", the writer and director said: "I love James Bond and I’ve talked with the producers over the years, but nothing’s ever worked out. They do a great job—they don’t need me right now, and Sam [Mendes] is an extraordinary talent."

He left the opportunity open of future collaboration, remarking, "I will absolutely be first in line to see the next Bond film as I have been for all of them."

Thanks to `Samuel001` for the alert.
