I'd like Henry Golding for 007, I'm also still on for Idris Elba. I like Tom Hardy but not for James Bond.

The thing about Idris, though he still looks fantastic, is that he would be starting his first Bond movie at the same age that Bonds generally retire. Connery, Brosnan and Craig all retired at 50. Filming of the two most recent Bond movies had to be halted for months so Craig could recover from stress injuries and he decided his body couldn't take it anymore.
Presumably the Bond producers want to get about 15 years out of the next Bond, and that's not going to happen if they hire somebody who is already 50. I think it's going to be somebody in their 30s.

Movie delayed again now April 2021 . Everyone thinks in 6 months things will be better but that is what everyone though 6 months ago.

Yeah, I think at this point the big blockbusters need to figure out alternative ways for release. "Mulan" seems to have been a wash, so now everyone is super cautious. But the industry is slowly adjusting how to shoot in these new conditions and they have restarted that. So I'm thinking they need to come up with alternative plans for releasing big movies as well. This is just the new normal.

Tenet didn’t to well either. Friends of mine saw it the second weekend it opened and they were the only two in the theatre.

It's unfortunate that Mulan was the test run, because it had so many things going against it that had nothing to do with the VOD release (the Xinjiang controversy, the lead actress criticizing the Hong Kong protesters, and the movie itself seeming to please neither fans of the 1998 move or the original Chinese source material).

Now looking like the latest movie will go direct to streaming. I wonder if this is the end of cinema?
