The James Bond 25 live broadcast on April 25th below revealed the film will be produced but failed to provide the film’s title. The informal title is James Bond 25. One thing we do know is that the film will be based on Raymond Benson’s book Never Dream of Dying. In the book, James Bond, 007, finally comes face to face with his most cunning nemesis-the enigmatic blind criminal mastermind behind the sinister organization known only as the Union. Several mistakes were made along the way including friends being hurt but James Bond prevails. Although the book may look like screenplays; it nevertheless make very entertaining reads.
