It’s been a long time since we last saw Daniel Craig suit up as James Bond in Spectre, going toe-to-toe with the wicked Ernst Blofeld (Christoph Waltz – who’s back in Bond 25). Fans have been left waiting for Bond’s next outing on the silver screen after a series of disruptions, including losing its original director, saw the film’s release date pushed further and further back. Now there’s a new director at the helm, but what else do we know about No Time to Die?. Here’s everything you need to know about Bond 25.
Bond 25 will be released on 3rd April 2020 in the UK and 8th April in the USA. Bond 25 was initially billed for release on 25th October 2019, which would have meant a four-year gap between the new film and the release of Spectre. Filming for No Time to Die eventually wrapped, funnily enough, on the day it was originally supposed to hit cinemas.
The first trailer showed the return of Bond arch-nemesis Blofeld (once again played by Christoph Waltz). It also hints at a dark secret being concealed by Bond’s love Madeleine Swann and introduces us to Rami Malek’s villain, known only as “Safin”. (There’s some speculation that “Safin” is actually a cover and that Malek is playing an updated version of classic Bond villain Dr. No, though that’s as yet unconfirmed.)
