The Los Angeles Times reports that talks are well under way between MGM and Sony for the latter company to release the next James Bond movie, slated to premiere in November 2012. Cash-strapped MGM recently emerged from bankruptcy but doesn't have the financial resources to properly market its films. Under the proposed deal, Sony would distribute a couple of MGM titles that have been sitting on the shelf, co-finance and distribute future movies including those in the Bond series. Sony handled distribution for the last two 007 films, Casino Royale and Quantum Of Solace. The studio reportedly has a good working relationship with the Bond producers, Eon Productions. Details are still being worked out, but if the deal goes through, Sony would also take possession of DVD distibution for MGM's massive back catalog, currently being marketed by Fox under an agreement that terminates in September.
