HOLLYWOOD - James Bond producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli have threatened to stop filming the super-spy franchise in Britain--because it's too expensive.
Wilson has blamed rising costs in the British capital for his stance and blasts the British Government for failing to help.
He says, "London is the most expensive city in the world right now. To bring talent here and put them up for long periods of time and the cost of doing business here is a factor."
The move means Casino Royale could be the last Bond movie filmed at Pinewood Studios--but the UK Film council insists it will find a way to ensure the British secret agent stays at his natural home.
A spokesperson for the Council says, "We will be doing all we can to ensure that every film that can shoot in the UK, including Bond, does."
