New issue of English fanzine MI6 Confidential (issue 34), another special dedicated to the making of the 2015 James Bond film SPECTRE, reviewed here.
MI6 Confidential, the full-colour magazine celebrating the world of James Bond, returns with its 34th issue.
The multi-million dollar
SPECTRE opened in cinemas late last year to a raft of expectation and a record-breaking first week at the box office. Although, as time would tell, the financial takings did not top its predecessor, the tone of
SPECTRE struck a chord with many, and harkened back to an easier, more cavalier era of Bond. As its Associate Producer
Gregg Wilson (son of
Michael G. Wilson) explains to MI6 in this issue,
SPECTRE is bigger and bolder by design, and reveals an unburdened Bond.
As well as conversations with Wilson,
Ben Whishaw and
Naomie Harris, this issue cast an eye back at the box office and global premieres of the 24th Bond film, and inspect the way the film was marketed via EON’s many promotional partners.
