JAMES BOND star PIERCE BROSNAN is returning to Ireland to make a new movie with his production company IRISH DREAMTIME.

The 007 actor has to make the film before Christmas (01) - when shooting of the next Bond movie begins. The film will be a drama based on a true story and will be produced by Brosnan and his business partner BEAU ST. CLAIR - the girlfriend of the late Irish actor DONAL MCCANN.

Brosnan married journalist KEELY SHAYE-SMITH at a glitzy ceremony in the west of Ireland last month (AUG01). Three years ago (98) Irish Dreamtime shot NEPHEW, THE (1998) in Ireland. It featured Brosnan and Donal McCann in the lead roles.
