I think Barbara Brocolli (or her and Wilson) owns 50% of the Bond film & TV rights. The other 50% is owned by United Artists, or whoever now owns UA.

A couple of decades ago, UA (or their then current owner) bought all rights to Never Say Never Again and the 1967 Casino Royale from Columbia, so now all of Bond's film & TV rights are owned by Brocolli & UA. That's why they were able to make the Craig Casino Royale.

The Fleming estate still owns the literary rights, and has been licensing new Bond books for a while now.

I don't consider the 1967 Casion Royale to be a real Bond film, though Never Say Never Again qualifies.
