crediting Sam Rolfe as sole creator

[edit]

The article claims Sam Rolfe was the sole creator of the Man from U.N.C.L.E. That is very inaccurate. Norman Felton and Ian Fleming are deserving of at least co-credit in the creation of the show. Not that it matters much I guess considering about all the film used were names from the old show. 75.17.127.177 (talk) 05:51, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The thing is, in the film, no one is credited for it if I remember correctly, but I don't think, due to legal rights, Ian Fleming would have a relation to it at all. Sure, he did create the character of Napoleon Solo and the idea of an international spy organization (not sure if he was the one to come up with "UNCLE", which I believe goes to Rolfe in the matter of creation). Cubby Broccoli, when he was producing the James Bond films, pushed Fleming to bow out of the UNCLE project and sold all the rights of his contribution to it for one dollar. I don't think he should have involvement so far... Unless they pull off Batman v Superman on it like crediting Bill Finger for creating Batman as well after all these years. --ZeroMinusTen (talk) 10:36, 10 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Elizabeth Debicki Casting

[edit]

It says: "Elizabeth Debicki was cast in a femme fatale role on July 31, 2013" Is the role really a femme fatale role? Is it not just a villain? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.110.124.54 (talk) 23:46, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Very late reply. It’s debatable; she is primarily the main villain, but with the introduction of sex into her relationship with Solo, in a broad sense she becomes a femme fatale. The cited source specifically states that she was cast “in some sort of femme fatale role”. The description should be reworked to indicate that the source is making the claim, or rewritten as a quote, because as-is it reads like the editor’s personal interpretation. 2603:9001:4500:1C09:B538:7A65:8CEC:E08C (talk) 13:26, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

T.H.R.U.S.H. involvement?

[edit]

one question. was T.H.R.U.S.H. mentioned in any way? Visokor (talk) 18:25, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No. Its all about nazis. Guy Richie did an interview where he said that the name was silly and unusable. 12.12.144.130 (talk) 18:49, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Possible sequel

[edit]

The article cited sounds like a sequel may be being written. There's no confirmation of an actual script. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.201.224.122 (talk) 21:56, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
