Excellent news! Both are creative producers of successful franchise movies - SPIDER-MAN and HARRY POTTER respectively, as well as many other successful films. Pascal oversaw CASINO ROYALE, QUANTUM OF SOLACE and SKYFALL (the most successful Bond ever), while Heyman brings a British sensibility.

@brianjamessmith.bsky.social remember guitarman Vic Flick. Despite playing the most famous film theme in the world, Vic admitted he didn’t have a favourite piece of music. “I’m proud to have been associated with the Bond films, Mancini, Bacharach and countless others” jamesbond007.se/eng/memoriam...

Saddened to hear VIC FLICK passed away, the original JAMES BOND THEME guitarist on DR NO and most of the Connery Bonds.
He returned for 1989’s LICENCE TO KILL.
I used to stock his CD JAMES BOND NOW. I would just give him a call when it was time to restock. He was a genuinely lovely guy. 🎸
