The long overdue James Bond film “No Time To Die” will finally have its world premiere in London next month, the creators of the franchise announced on Friday.
“The world premiere of #NoTimeToDie will take place on Tuesday, September 28, 2021 at the @RoyalAlbertHall in London,” read a tweet from 007’s official Twitter account.
Producers Michael G. Wilson, Barbara Broccoli and director Cary Joji Fukunagase will join Daniel Craig on the red carpet. “
The 25th installment in the fictional British spy saga has seen its release postponed several times due to the pandemic.
It was originally scheduled for a London premiere this past March, before a global launch the following month, before it was delayed by subsequent waves of coronavirus around the world.
In January, US studio MGM said the film would open globally on October 8.
“No Time to Die,” directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga (“Beasts of No Nation,” “True Detective”) is expected to be Craig’s last appearance as the suave British spy, after starring in four previous films.
See Bond pulled out of retirement in Jamaica by his old friend and CIA agent Felix Leiter.
Rami Malek (“Bohemian Rhapsody”) plays Bond’s adversary Safin, while Lashana Lynch, Lea Seydoux, Ana de Armas and Ben Whishaw also star.
Produced at a cost of reportedly around $ 250 million, the film’s success is crucial for MGM, while Universal Pictures will distribute the film overseas.
