The producers of the 007 series must have heaved a huge sigh of relief when they read the reviews of TOMORROW NEVER DIES. The verdict was pretty much unanimous: Pierce Brosnan had passed the test in GOLDENEYE and his second adventure, with audiences and critics embracing him as James Bond in a way they never did with his predecessor Timothy Dalton. "Brosnan is fast becoming the second best 007 – effortlessly competent and coolly sexy," raved *San Francisco Gate* critic Ruthe Stein. "For his part, Brosnan now looks so at ease in the role that it seems like second nature to him," agreed Todd McCarthy of *Variety*. But just in case there might have still been some qualms about the New Guy, the filmmakers added an irresistible wild card to the TOMORROW cast in the form of Michelle Yeoh. TOMORROW NEVER DIES, like GOLDENEYE, was also designed to reflect topical issues. The plot pits Bond against an avaricious Rupert Murdoch-style media czar named Elliot Carver (Jonathan Pryce), who is content to create bad news and then profit from the coverage through his news networks. His latest scheme: conjure up a crisis that will send Great Britain and China into what could be World War III.
