The director of Bond 25 has quickly denied that he held up film production as he was too busy playing video games.

Cary Fukunaga had been the subject of internet rumours that he had kept the film crew waiting and was late to work as he was glued to his PlayStation 4, but he claims this is not the case.

According to The Sun, a source claimed the director failed to turn up for several hours because he was playing his PlayStation.

Taking to Instagram to refute the claims, he posted a photo of the films production designer, Mark Tildesley, saying: Our production designer/artful master of living for the day, Mark Tildesley— commented to me once that being a director must feel like dying of a thousand cuts, because of the constant stream of questions one must field.

Theres not a minute on this job that isnt scheduled, and even during a shoot day, in the hours before call, between takes and setups, and after we wrap theres always a line of dedicated and hard working department heads hungry to prep our next sequences, no one sleeps on this kind of job.

So sure its hard, but its still the best job in the world and Id never disrespect the hardest working cast and crew. Were all in this together.

As for my PS4 relationship, if my RDR2 progress is any indication, its been stunted at 63% for months and if anyone spoils the end for me before I wrap on B25 Im going to be p****d.

The 25th installment in the James Bond franchise had been plagued with issues.

The film was originally set to be directed by Danny Boyle, until he left production in August 2018 due to creative differences.
