Hitflix has confirmed that Bond 24 has found a new Cinematographer in BAFTA nominated director, Hoyte van Hoytoma. He will replace Roger Deakins as cinematographer for the Bond franchise as of now. Roger Deakins exited the franchise after his work on the critically acclaimed Bond movie 'Skyfall', to move onto other projects.
Hoyte van Hoytema's directing credits include 'Let the Right One In', and 'Her', both of which were critically acclaimed films in their respective genres. Both of these films were critically praised not only for their execution, but for the manner in which they were shot, which the cinematographer would be the principal one to oversee. If Hoytema can give Bond 24 the same visual flair that he gave these films, it should be very impressive indeed.
