re: Looks like no new James Bond movie for a while….

Yes, because what Bond really needs is non-linear storytelling, bad sound mixes, and mumbling.*

Is he, really? Or does he just like to bang hot chicks?

Right? It’s not like Craig was slapping girls on the arse. If you think about pop culture as whole right now, Bond is pretty tame when it comes to his morality. If having a one night stand is considered “misogynist” then shut the whole thing down.

“Bond is a dinosaur” is a trope that Bond producers have needlessly wrapped themselves in. How many times do we see a Bond actress say “My character isn’t your typical Bond girl.”?

Wasn't Christopher Lee exposed as lying and embellishing about his war record?

We’re working out where to go with him, we’re talking that through. There isn’t a script and we can’t come up with one until we decide how we’re going to approach the next film because, really, it’s a reinvention of Bond

Translated: We really wanted to go woke and have a tranny Bond, but the only movies making a profit these days are ones that take the woke parts out. So we’re not sure how to write non-woke characters.

Is Hammer even employable, at this point?

really, it’s a reinvention of Bond. We’re reinventing who he is and that takes time.

I hope this means they are looking to go younger Bond, and cast someone they can keep in the role for a long time.

But, it is Hollywood…

Why wouldn't he be?

Make it a period piece set during the Cold War in the 60s. “Problem” solved.

He's a good looking, misogynistic, badass spy that wears nice suits, drives cool cars, sleeps with hot women, and kills bad guys trying to control the world. That's the character Ian Fleming created. If you don't want to make a movie about that character, make a movie about a different character.

They want to ride on the coat tails of the "Bond" name since they know an altered character would bomb at the box office.

This is ominous to me

Bond is a fictional character with specific character traits. He's an intelligent, handsome, British spy who can foil master villains with a mixture of brains and brawn, and is irresistible to gorgeous women.

If you want to "reinvent" the character, that's fine. But if he is anything but that then he is not "James Bond".
