James Bond Movie 'No Time to Die' Has Been Delayed Again

James Bond fans will be waiting even longer to see the upcoming movie No Time to Die.

Daniel Craig‘s final 007 movie has been delayed yet again because of the pandemic and the closure of movie theaters around the country.

The movie was originally supposed to be released on April 10, 2020 and was one of the first films to push back its release amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The movie was delayed until November 2020 and then that date was pushed back again to April 2, 2021.

Now, the movie has been delayed yet again, hopefully for the last time now that the vaccine is rolling out around the U.S. and other countries around the world.

Dutch exhibitor Carlo Lambregts reportedly revealed that he heard No Time to Die was heading from its Easter weekend date to November in a website post. According to sources that spoke to Deadline, the film’s promotional partners have also been updated on the new release date.

The movie was originally slated for an April 2020 release which was pushed to November 2020 at the start of the coronavirus pandemic. It was then delayed a second time until April 2021.

MGM Studios reportedly considered selling the movie to streaming services in October 2020, but the $600 million price tag was too expensive for streaming platforms.

Lashana Lynch Responds to Backlash for Her 007 Role in 'No Time to Die'

Lashana Lynch is starring alongside Daniel Craig in the upcoming James Bond movie No Time to Die and she has faced a lot of backlash after her casting was announced.

The 32-year-old actress, best known for playing Maria Rambeau in Captain Marvel, plays Nomi, who is rumored to inherit the 007 title from James Bond in the movie.

Lashana thinks any other Black actress would have received the same criticism had they landed the role.

“I am one Black woman — if it were another Black woman cast in the role, it would have been the same conversation, she would have got the same attacks, the same abuse,” Lashana told Harper’s Bazaar UK. “I just have to remind myself that the conversation is happening and that I’m a part of something that will be very, very revolutionary.”

“I feel very grateful that I get to challenge those narratives,” she added. “We’re moving away from toxic masculinity, and that’s happening because women are being open, demanding and vocal, and calling out misbehaviour as soon as we see it.”

James Bond Studio Wanted $600 Million to Put 'No Time to Die' on Streaming Instead of a Theatrical Release

A new report is revealing the amount of money it would have taken to get the upcoming James Bond movie No Time to Die to skip theaters for a streaming-only release.

The movie was supposed to be released back in April 2020, but the release date was pushed back until November 2020 right at the start of the pandemic. Now, it has been pushed back again until April 2021.

With some movies opting for streaming releases instead of going to theaters, MGM reportedly considered the possibility of selling the film to a streaming service.

“The studio was said to be looking for a deal of roughly $600 million — a price tag that was deemed too rich for two of the free-spending streaming services,” Variety reported.

Apple, Netflix, and some other streaming services were reportedly in the mix for the possible acquisition.

A rep for MGM told Variety, “We do not comment on rumors. The film is not for sale. The film’s release has been postponed until April 2021 in order to preserve the theatrical experience for moviegoers.”

The producer of the Bond movies has spoken out about casting the next Bond.

Bond Movie 'No Time to Die' Pushed Back to 2021 Amid Pandemic

No Time to Die is no longer hitting theaters in 2020.

The forthcoming Bond film, already pushed back amid the pandemic, is now being scheduled for April, 2, 2021, Easter weekend, abandoning its November 20 release date, Deadline confirmed on Friday (October 2).

“MGM, Universal and Bond producers, Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, today announced the release of No Time To Die, the 25th film in the James Bond series, will be delayed until 2 April in order to be seen by a worldwide theatrical audience. We understand the delay will be disappointing to our fans but we now look forward to sharing No Time To Die next year,” said the studio in a statement.

No Time to Die stands to make $1 billion worldwide. Given that, it makes sense to release what is expected to be Daniel Craig’s final Bond film in an optimum, vibrant global marketplace,” Deadline reported, adding that this is “horrible news in the short-term” for theaters.

“While it’s good news for exhibition that MGM is keeping this a theatrical release, it’s horrible news in the short-term. Exhibition was banking on this movie, a notable IP versus Christopher Nolan’s original Tenet, and it would not be shocking to hear that some hardcore attrition in the exhibition space will take place.”

Deadline also pointed out that advertising for the film is now stalled again, presenting yet another issue.

“Another monkeywrench here for No Time to Die is the movie’s promotional partners which are moving for a second time. Omega Watches, Adidas, Swatch and Heineken have all started their promotions. Typically when movies jump release dates, there are penalties incurred by the studio. Why? The advertiser has racked up shipping and product design costs, and such ad elements are on a schedule. It essentially becomes a negotiation between the studio and the brand as they all want to remain in business with each other down the road. Sometimes, a decision is made to simply allow the product that’s been shipped to be out there, and products remain part of the movie’s pre-awareness.”

Another promotional piece of the movie was also just released.

“It feels crazy to be a part of this in every way,” Billie shared along with the release. “To be able to score the theme song to a film that is part of such a legendary series is a huge honor.”

It is now set to to be released on November 20. Check out the latest trailer here.

'No Time to Die' Poster Revealed Amid Reports That Film Might Be Next Blockbuster to Hit Theaters

There’s a new poster for the James Bond movie No Time to Die, which may very well be the next major blockbuster to hit theaters after the Coronavirus pandemic.

Amid reports that Disney/Marvel is considering moving the planned November release of Black Window, this would place No Time to Die as the next big movie to hit theaters on November 20.

Christopher Nolan‘s Tenet was one of the first major movies to open in theaters during the COVID-19 pandemic and it hasn’t had a huge box office domestically.

Here’s a synopsis: In No Time To Die, Bond has left active service and is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica. His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help. The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far more treacherous than expected, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology.

Daniel Craig stars alongside Léa Seydoux, Lashana Lynch, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, Jeffrey Wright, Christoph Waltz, Ralph Fiennes, Rory Kinnear, Ana de Armas, Dali Benssalah, David Dencik, and Billy Magnussen.
