"Bond 24," the new James Bond flick, is set to start filming soon.

According to new reports, the Sam Mendes movie has already received the green light from producers and is slated to start filming by late November.

Baz Bamigboye in his column for Daily Mail UK, dished some exclusive details about the new Bond movie.

"'Everyone's excited, and all systems are pumping away at full speed,' my 007 Informant told me, adding that Purvis and Wade's script is 'substantially different' from Logan's."

"'There was an awful lot of work to do. It was a big job. The impression given was that Purvis and Wade were hired to add jokes - but it was a bigger deal than that,' an executive at one of the studios associated with the Bond films explained."

It has been previously reported that the script penned by John Logan was asked to be revised by different scriptwriters- Neil Purvis and Robert Wade- to have a little bit of humor infused in the script.

Bamigboye continued saying, "Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris and Ben Whishaw (the new voice of Paddington, another exclusive from this column) are set to join Craig on Bond 24. Casting for other parts - including the all-important Bond persons (it's not acceptable to say Bond girls these days!) - is ongoing."

In a separate interview on the Charlie Rose Show, director Sam Mendes shared why they chose to have the certain tone as seen in "Skyfall."

"What we tried to do, and audiences seemed to embrace in Skyfall, is that for the first time, characters were allowed to age. And they were allowed to acknowledge - in a kind of a sly, mischievous way - the history of the franchise that they'd been part of," Mendes said.
