“I learned a lot about myself by working on the film James Bond. I work alongside screenwriters and I am not ready for this collaboration to stop”declared Danny Boyle, in remarks reported by Yahoo Movies.
“We worked very, very well, but they did not want to take this path. So we decided to separate, and it would be unfair to say why because I don't know what Cary Fukunaga is doing. He sent me a very nice message, I wish him the best … But it's really a shame “.
“It's behind me”
Seven years later, when he is on a promotional tour for his new film, 28 years later, long awaited, moreover, the filmmaker speaks again on this departure, at the microphone of Business Insider.
“It is behind me. The thing I regret in there is that the scenario was really good. John Hodge is an excellent screenwriter. I do not think that the producers have realized how good the scenario was, and because of that, we have moved on, and that's how it is. No matter what's going on with Bond in the future, that's how it is.”
