Danny Boyle has stepped down from the director's seat for 'Bond 25'. He will no longer be part of the James Bond film reportedly after not being able to overcome some creative differences on the film. The official James Bond account announced the news on Twitter. "Michael G. Wilson, Barbara Broccoli and Daniel Craig today [Tuesday] announced that due to creative differences Danny Boyle has decided to no longer direct Bond 25," the 007 account posted on Tuesday.

Fans remained divided on the decision and went on to suggest some directors who could be a valuable addition to the Bond franchise.
