Danny Boyle will not have a James Bond movie on his
filmography. 

The Oscar-winning director is leaving the next movie in the
legendary franchise over creative differences, according to a
tweet from the official James Bond account on Tuesday. 

“Michael G. Wilson, Barbara Broccoli and Daniel Craig today
announced that due to creative differences Danny Boyle has
decided to no longer direct Bond 25,” the tweet read.

Boyle was previously announced as the director of the 25th movie
in the 007 franchise, which will once again star Daniel Craig as
the iconic secret agent.

The movie, which is currently untitled, has a November 8, 2019
release date. Production is to begin on December 3 of this year.

Prepare for the internet to go crazy with suggestions on who
should take over the director reins. And the producers will have
to hustle if they want it to make its November 2019 release
date. 

Business Insider contacted MGM for comment but did not get an
immediate response.
