Announced at the San Diego Comic-Con, Dynamite Entertainment announced Gail Simone has been tapped to tell the next James Bond adventure.
“It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of Ian Fleming’s James Bond,” said writer Gail Simone. “I like the version that’s involved in the meanest part of the secret wars of espionage, the kind of warrior who does his work in the dark. I want the Bond who has dalliances with beautiful women and then goes home to an empty apartment. I want adventure and risk around every corner, with the next betrayal always looming over his head. ‘Iridescent’ is one of my favorite stories I’ve ever written, about a character I have loved since I first saw The Man With the Golden Gun years ago. It’s high action, big stakes, and a very, very human Bond. I’m grateful to Dynamite and Ian Fleming Publications for asking me to do this dream project!”
While we don’t know everything about the project, it is tentatively titled “Iridescent!”
