It’s been two years because the launch of No Time To Die – however we’re no nearer to a brand new James Bond film, Barbara Broccoli appears to verify.
It took a protracted, very long time for the twenty fifth James Bond movie, No Time To Die, to even get to manufacturing. And even when Daniel Craig’s swansong as 007 was full, it then took a protracted, very long time to get it to a cinema display screen. No Time To Die was ultimately launched in 2021, and from there, the plan was to reboot the collection as soon as once more, with a brand new James Bond on the coronary heart of that.
