The Queen volunteered herself to be in it, describing her performances as full of "real joy."Frank Cottrell-Boyce, who also wrote the Platinum Jubilee Paddington sketch, explained to BBC Radio Four's Today programme that the Queen was not originally in the James Bond sketch.However, when the team visited Buckingham Palace for permission to represent Her Majesty on at the Olympics 2012 opening ceremony, they discovered that The Queen wanted to be in the sketch.READ NEXT: Netflix's The Crown fans demand extra episode to honour Queen ElizabethHe said: "We went to the palace asking for permission to represent her and to know what she was wearing on the day and it was her amazing dresser who said, ‘No no she wants to be in it.’ "She was game and she was up for that."The famous sketch saw The Queen meet James Bond, played by 007 actor Daniel Craig, in a surprise cameo, where she greeted him with the words "Good evening Mr. Bond."However, Frank also revealed that The Queen did not originally speak in the sketch, until she made a special request to director Danny Boyle for a line in the script."In fact on the day when we were filming, she asked Danny Boyle if she could have a line because there wasn’t a line in the script, probably because when I was typing the script I didn’t quite know how you would type the character of the Queen, what would you type."After their meeting, The Queen and Bond walked alongside one another, and the corgis, before setting off in a helicopter towards the Olympic stadium - when a stunt double for The Queen jumped out of the helicopter and parachuted in.

Nick Vivarelli International Correspondent With “Chiara,” Susanna Nicchiarelli’s portrait of Saint Clare of Assisi – the 13th century saint born into a wealthy family who at age 18 became a nun after hearing St. Francis preach – the Italian director completes her trilogy of female biopics, segueing from “Nico, 1988” and “Miss Marx,” which both launched from Venice’s Horizons section. With “Chiara,” she makes the leap into the main Venice competition. Nicchiarelli spoke to Variety about what drew her to portraying this prototypical feminist and directing “My Brilliant Friend” star Margherita Mazzucco in the pic’s titular role. Excerpts. What drove you to want to tell us this story about St. Clare?Well, first of all, I was always passionate about Saint Francis. I have a very strong memory when I first saw Franco Zeffirelli’s “Brother Sun, Sister Moon.” I was at school when they showed it to us and this boy, this man, taking his clothes off in front of the Bishop. That was a very strong image. Francis’ battle speaks to us just as much today because it’s a battle for poverty, against social injustice. It’s about being on the side of the poor, of those who are different, and the injustices of a society in which very few have everything and then most have nothing. So, this was their battle. The medieval society was like that. It’s not so different from the way it is now.

Matt Donnelly Senior Film Writer No feature film has it easy in the modern theatrical and digital landscape, but 2022 has been particularly fraught. Warner Bros. is outright shelving pricey titles like “Batgirl,” Netflix has gone back to the drawing board thanks to its stock stumble and Amazon is focusing its resources on the almost-billion-dollar rollout of its “Lord of the Rings” TV series.   For fledgling indie movies that come to film markets, like the one currently underway in Toronto, the streamers used to be a safe and lucrative bets for distribution. As these now-legacy companies scramble to cut costs and boost subscriptions to please stockholders, the indie film industrial complex has once again been forced to pivot.
