LOS ANGELES, Sept. 1 (UPI) -- Columbia Pictures confirmed the yet to be named James Bond flick, now called "Bond 22," being made after the current film drops will debut Nov. 8, 2008.

After "Casino Royale" drops in November, work will start on the new bond film that was pushed back from it's original May 2, 2008, release date and currently has no director. Roger Mitchell of "Notting Hill" dropped out of the project, the Hollywood Reporter said Friday.

Sony Pictures Entertainment Vice Chairman Jeff Blake said the studio, along with partners MGM and British production company EON Prods., are in talks about getting a new director.
