A Pitch Video For A Lego James Bond Game Has Leaked

At one point in time, TT Games—the studio behind the Lego Star Wars franchise—pitched a James Bond game to the toy block brand. That project never happened, but now a video pitch for the proposed 007-themed Lego game has leaked and it lets us look at what might have been.

On December 1, The Lego Video Game Museum (a fan-run account) posted a leaked pitch video for a James Bond Lego game featuring dialogue from the films and brick versions of Roger Moore and Daniel Craig. The video, which was first posted on Reddit, has since been pulled from there and Twitter, but can still be found on YouTube and the Internet Archive.

Former Lego Games/TT Games Fusion tech director Paul Hughes confirmed that the leaked trailer was real on Twitter, posting “I wonder how that got out.” He explained that it was made by TT Games’ cutscene department.

“I saw [the 007 pitch video] when it was being made,” posted Hughes. “As always there’s a story behind it. Suffice to say it never went into production... Could’ve been amazing.”

Hughes wasn’t able to provide many more details on the project, citing NDAs that “still prevent people [from] talking about what it was [or] could’ve been.”

“I always thought [a 007 Lego game] would’ve been a total banger if it had happened with so much history behind it... Oh well...”

On Reddit, The Lego Video Game Museum claims they were told the trailer was produced as a way to pitch a 007 game to the Lego Group in the hopes that it would get approved and the team could build a full game. However, it’s reported that Lego decided that the franchise wasn’t suitable for its audience and passed. We technically have received two 007 Lego sets, but both of them were just recreations of his car. Perhaps if Lego had created more sets based on the movies, the 007 game could have happened. Sadly, we’ll never get to play that game.
