James Bond writers approached for next 007 movie

James Bond screenwriters Neal Purvis and Robert Wade are gearing up to write the new, as-yet-untitled 007 film.

The writing duo are frequent collaborators with the 007 franchise, having penned many Bond pictures including "Casino Royale", "Quantum of Solace", "Skyfall" and "Spectre", the latter of which they boarded at a later stage, reported Deadline.

However, it is still unclear as to whether or not Daniel Craig will reprise his role as 007 but producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson are keen for him to return.
