      Hello Steven, hope your having a wonderful day.

      well I believe choosing Cillian Murphy for the lead role, would be undeniably the best choice of your. But what made you choose him, how did u come across him?

      Thank you

      Hello, Steven! Thanks for doing this.

      Three questions. 

      1. I’m trying to break into the industry, but can’t really find a way to do it at the moment. Do you have any tips I could use to help my chances?

      2. What was the most rewarding project you’ve ever worked on? How did it come to your mind?

      3. Only answer this question if you can. How is work on the next Bond film progressing?

      Thanks again and best of luck with the new film!

      Hi!

      Please be biased and tell us who was your favourite character to write throughout the journey (aside from Tommy ofc).

      I haven’t actually seen “Peaky Blinders”, but I really wanna add to the discussion. So I’ll ask instead, did you and the other creators of “Millionaire” expect it to be as big as it is?

      Hi, Mr. Knight. I love so many of your projects.

      I loved *Taboo*, and I’ve been anxious over the second season. But it’s been 9 years since that show came out and there’s been no news about it. Could you provide an update?

      Would Tommy genuinely have gone legit if Grace was alive? Or do you believe that he would’ve still somehow stayed on the path that he went on?
      If so, would Grace have stayed with him or eventually left?

      How do you balance historical authenticity against changing things to suit the story’s needs? Do you handle it on a case-by-case basis, or is there some kind of set approach you consistently take?

      1. Can you answer how you think your Bond will be different from all the other Bonds before?

      2. Your favorite Bond film?

      Thank you!

      Hi Steven,

      What authors, screenwriters, directors, etc would you say had the biggest influence on yourself?

      Also, given that you will be writing the next James Bond movie, which of the existing Bond films is your personal favorite?

      Thank you!
