The producer of the new James Bond thriller ‘Spectre,’ denies the script was changed to get monetary incentives to shoot part of the film in Mexico. The website Tax Analysts says leaked emails indicated Mexico made suggestions on the nationality of an actress and the villain, the villain’s intended victim, and some film shots. The emails implied that Mexico’s incentives for the film were at stake. Film Producer Michael Wilson said Wednesday: ‘There is nothing in the script that we hadn’t had before. The villain was always an Italian … we already shot that in Rome.’ Asked about Mexico’s purported insistence on a Mexican actress in a role known as ‘Estrella,’ Wilson says, ‘We always had a Mexican actress playing this part.’ Officials in Mexico City declined to comment on possible incentives offered on the movie, which is scheduled to begin filming in Mexico on Thursday.
