With the success of Saddle Tramp on its way, 21st Century Pictures is ready for its next hit. According to a source within the studio, executive Teufel is looking to develop the James Bond franchise, but with a twist.
In the new incarnation of the famed spy series, Teufel wants to make the lead a female.
"He's pretty hyped about the idea," noted the source. "They've been having trouble getting a normal Bond off the ground. But a female-led action thriller? They'll be lined up around the block to see that!"
The studio hopes to cast Summer Glau as Jane Bond, relation to James unknown at this time. Having proven herself able to handle a physical role, is the actress ready for this major one?
The source continued "It's all in development now. But we're sure that we can get it off the ground for mid-2014. Keep an eye on the calendar!"
Neither Miss Glau nor her representation returned calls as of this writing.
