No_Time_to_Die_19
No Time to Die is a forthcoming British spy film and the twenty-fifth instalment in the James Bond film series produced by Eon Productions. It features Daniel Craig in his fifth and final outing as the fictional MI6 agent James Bond. The film is directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga from a screenplay by Neal Purvis, Robert Wade, Fukunaga and Phoebe Waller-Bridge. Léa Seydoux, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, Jeffrey Wright, Christoph Waltz and Ralph Fiennes reprise their roles from previous films, with Rami Malek, Lashana Lynch and Ana de Armas joining the main cast.
Development of the film began in 2016. It will be the first film in the series to be co-produced and distributed by Universal Pictures, which acquired the rights following the expiration of Sony Pictures' contract after the release of Spectre in 2015. United Artists Releasing holds the rights for the United States, including worldwide digital and television rights. Universal will also release the film on physical home media worldwide. Danny Boyle was originally attached to direct and co-write the screenplay with John Hodge. Both left due to creative differences in August 2018; Fukunaga was announced as Boyle's replacement a month later. The majority of the cast had signed on by April 2019. Principal photography lasted from April to October 2019 under the working title of Bond 25. The official title was announced to be No Time to Die in August 2019.
No Time to Die was originally scheduled for release in April 2020, but was postponed worldwide due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It is now scheduled for release on 12 November in the United Kingdom and on 20 November in the United States.
