Daniel Craig’s swansong as 007 will open as planned at the world’s box offices.
For almost two years, Covid has done the one thing many villains over the past fifty-nine years have failed to do. It defeated James Bond. Originally due to open in April 2020, ‘No Time To Die.’ has been delayed time and again. The delays are now over. Today has seen the final trailer for the film hit the wires. The swansong for Daniel Craig’s time incorporating 007s tuxedo will open as planned with no further delays. And the international trailer opens with the words “The Wait Is Over”, finally confirming that Bond is back.
THE FINAL INTERNATIONAL TRAILER
THE FINAL U.S TRAILER
THE PREMISE
Five years after the capture of Ernst Stavro Blofeld (Christoph Waltz), James Bond has left active service. He is approached by friend and CIA officer Felix Leiter (Jeffrey Wright), who enlists his help in the search of Valdo Obruchev (David Dencik), a missing scientist. When it becomes apparent that Obruchev has been abducted, Bond must confront a villain whose schemes could see the death of millions.
THE CAST
Joining Daniel Craig, Christoph Waltz, Jeffrey Wright, and David Dencik in the film are Lea Seydoux. Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris and Ralph Fiennes. Newcomers include Lashana Lynch, Billy Magnussen. Ana De Armas, and Rami Malek as the villain. Rumors continue to swirl that Malek’s character is, in fact, Dr. No. I wouldn’t put too much faith in that idea but he does look to be another great baddie for Bond to take on. If you view both trailers above, you’ll see some differences in the footage. But in both, Malek gives us chills.
After all the delays, I just hope that the film is one of the best Bond films of recent years. The world is once again waiting with bated breath. The world is waiting for Bond. Daniel Craig’s final appearance of the world’s least secret, secret agent will hopefully give the actor the send-off he deserves as the character. And we can finally say, The Wait Is Over.
James Bond Will Return In ‘No Time To Die’ from September 30th in the U.K and from October 8th in the United States.
Are you planning on seeing the return of James Bond? Are you glad the film is finally about to open? Will you miss Daniel Craig as 007? Let us know your thoughts!
