Pierce Brosnan Still James Bond

This fact was stated by Judi Dench who will play M. in the action film.

According to Evening Standard, the actress revealed, "Despite the fact that everyone on the face of the earth has been tested as his possible replacement, Pierce will be doing it again."

Despite this assertion a spokesperson for the production company Eon stated that, "No cast members, locations or release dates can be confirmed."

Filming of Casino Royale has already been delayed one year due to the search for a new director, and a new actress.  Director, Martin Campbell, (GoldenEye, The Mask of Zorro, Vertical Limit) got the job of directing this 21st James Bond film.

Filming will begin by the end of the year.
