And just like that, we no longer have to call the next 007 movie Bond 25. It’s now been revealed that Daniel Craig’s next and likely final performance as James Bond will be titled No Time to Die.
I actually prefer the Bond movies with phrases in them than the single-word titles like Skyfall and Spectrum. And this one at least makes sense! It’s no time for James Bond to die! It doesn’t get much simpler and easier to follow than that. But it also bodes the question, well, when is a good time to die? The very fact the title hints at Bond’s death has to be taken into account, doesn’t it? Especially with Craig hanging up his tuxedo?
Immediately it recalls Goldfinger’s famous quote from the 1964 movie: “No Mr. Bond, I expect you to die.”
The title reveal also comes with a brief teaser which you can check out below.
No Time to Die is directed by Cary Jo Fukunaga and co-stars Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris, Rory Kinnear, Léa Seydoux, Ben Whishaw, Jeffrey Wright, Ana de Armas, Dali Benssalah, David Dencik, Lashana Lynch, and Billy Magnussen. Look for it to open on April 8th 2020.
