Trivia and QuotesQuotes Natalya Simonova: Who are you?
James Bond: I work for the British government. The more you tell me the more I can help you. [Q has blown up a dummy with an explosive pen]
Q: Don`t say it...
James Bond: The writing is on the wall.
Q: Along with the rest of him.Trivia The Jack Wade character was named after screenwriter Kevin Wade who wrote a draft of the screenplay. The name of the winged horse St. Petersburg statue that ended on a top of the T-55 tank was Pegasus. Pegasus was also the name of Max Zorin`s pedigree racing horse in A View to a Kill (1985). This is the first time that the Bill Tanner Mi6 Chief of Staff character has appeared in the series since For Your Eyes Only (1981). The character was meant to return for the next Bond movie Tomorrow Never Dies (1997) but the actor Michael Kitchen who had played him here was unavailable to return. But Kitchen did get to return as Tanner in The World Is Not Enough (1999). Because the series was caught up in litigation, the six-and-a-half-year hiatus between the release of Licence to Kill (1989) and GoldenEye (1995) is the longest gap between Bond films since the series first started in 1962. First opening titles sequence directed by title designer Daniel Kleinman picking up the baton from long-standing designer Maurice Binder, who had died since the making of the previous Bond movie Licence to Kill (1989). The Bond film to follow Licence to Kill (1989) (often times erroneously said to have been intended to be `The Property of a Lady` but which eventually became GoldenEye (1995)) was supposed to be released in 1991, but legal squabbles over the ownership of James Bond, disappointing box office results on Licence to Kill (1989), and the death of longtime screenwriter Richard Maibaum, delayed the start of production for several years. Although he was contracted to play Bond a third time (and possibly fourth time), after several years elapsed with no new film, Timothy Dalton announced he didn`t want to play the role again. This opened the door for Pierce Brosnan.
Several changes had to be made to the script during production because the plot was virtually identical to True Lies (1994) which was being released at the time.
Actresses considered as Bond girls were Elizabeth Hurley and Elle Macpherson. Paulina Porizkova and Eva Herzigova were offered the role of Natalya but turned it down. Before Pierce Brosnan was cast as James Bond, Liam Neeson, Mel Gibson, Sam Neill, Hugh Grant and Lambert Wilson were all rumoured to be in the running for the role. This was Pierce Brosnan`s first appearance as James Bond. After Roger Moore retired, considering himself to be too old to play Bond any more, Pierce was offered the role of James Bond in The Living Daylights (1987), but lost out due to his contractual obligations to "Remington Steele" (1982). | ||
