Happy to write a script. It begins with Bond skiing through a casino.

New report on the next James Bond movie

• Development has stalled

• There's currently no script or story

• Amazon is interested in making spinoff projects

• Producer Brenda Broccoli was pissed when Amazon called Bond 'content' and thinks they're 'fucking idiots'

A man looks on in astonishment. Then throws his drink away.

Obv Bond both wins at roullette and pulls a glamorous lady as he weaves through the gaming tables.

M (via remote camera): You’re taking one hell of a gamble, Bond!

BOND (straight to camera): The odds are in my favour, sir.

[Crashes into craps table. Adjacent one-armed bandits disgorge huge jackpot]

[We see villain upside-down from Bond’s POV]

DR BETFINGER: The house always wins, Mr Bond!

Then skis out the window: we see the casino is on a sea cliff. Union Jack parachute. Followed by scuba diving scene.

Someone hits a win on the fruit machine as Bond passes. The puggie starts playing the 007 theme. Bond raises an eyebrow. Meanwhile, someone is startled by some doves.

I wish Roger Moore was still around. He'd go through a casino backwards. And on one ski. Well, Willi Bogner would. With Roger looking pensive in closeup.
