Neal Purvis & Robert Wade: Die Another Day Writers

It must be tough, having to write a Bond for which expectations are so high...
Robert Wade: I think we felt more pressure writing The World Is Not Enough, because that was our first one. There’s always a lot of pressure, though. It’s difficult to come up with new stuff when it’s all been done 19 times before. But everyone feels Die Another Day has a good story, and the basic idea is interesting, so you’ve just got to get on with it and forget about the pressure.

The story’s rooted in a plot to reunite North and South Korea. How realistic have you tried to make this movie?
Neal Purvis: We’ve actually decided to get away from some of the realism of the past few Bond movies, and make a slightly more fantastic story. We’re trying to get back to the big sets that Bonds were known for years ago.
