A source told The Sun Newspaper the following.
“There were three huge explosions and it’s blown part of the Bond stage roof off and some wall panels off the stage. There were three loud explosions, one after another, and a member of the crew was lying on the floor outside the building injured.”
The Sun reports that the fire came from a test run of a stunt involving a laboratory and a fireball. The film will be the twenty-fifth film in the popular and long-running franchise. And it’s likely that this will be the last film in which the titular character is portrayed by Daniel Craig.
I do enjoy the Bond films, but became a fan from playing GoldenEye when I was younger. That’s when I began to watch the films, the newer ones at least. I haven’t went back through the films of Roger Moore and perhaps most famously, Sean Connery.
