Bond 25 director Cary Fukunaga said in an Instagram post on Tuesday that he did not hold up his film crew by playing Red Dead Redemption 2.
A report in The Sun surfaced on Monday that said Fukunaga kept the James Bond crew waiting hours. The excuse? Because he was too busy playing PlayStation 4. Fukunaga responded to the Bond 25 controversy by posting a picture to Instagram of Production Designer Mark Tildesly on Tuesday with a caption denying his supposed video game addiction.
“There’s not a minute on this job that isn’t scheduled, and even during a shoot day, in the hours before call, between takes and setups, and after we wrap there’s always a line of dedicated and hard working department heads hungry to prep our next sequences, no one sleeps on this kind of job,” Fukunaga wrote. “As for my PS4 relationship, if my RDR2 progress is any indication, it’s been stunted at 63% for months and if anyone spoils the end for me before I wrap on B25 I’m going to be pissed.”
