No Time To Die: Trailer Talk
Next year sees the return of Daniel Craig’s iteration of James Bond. While I’ve never been a fan of the James Bond films (shocker I know), I’ve always enjoyed the Daniel Craig films.
The IMDb synopsis for ‘No Time To Die’ is below:
“Bond has left active service. His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology.”
While I’m glad I didn’t know the synopsis (hence why I had to turn to IMDb), this trailer is a mess. It’s filled with returning characters, references, fan-service and way too many visual transitions. While the action scenes look exciting and I will definitely be going to see this, I’m hoping the second trailer is better in the editing department.
‘James Bond: No Time To Die’ will be in cinemas 2nd April 2020
No Time to Die is a British upcoming 2020 spy action film directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga. It is the twenty-fifth instalment in the James Bond series to be produced by Eon Productions. The film features Daniel Craig in his fifth outing as fictional MI6 agent James Bond. Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris, Ben Whishaw, Rory Kinnear, Jeffrey Wright, Léa Seydoux and Christoph Waltz reprise their roles from previous films, with Rami Malek, Ana de Armas and Lashana Lynch joining the cast.
Development of the film began and was confirmed in 2016. It will be the first film in the series to be internationally distributed by Universal Pictures, acquiring the rights following the expiration of Columbia Pictures‘ contract after Spectre. In the United States, United Artists Releasing holds the rights. Universal will also release the film on home media domestically.
Danny Boyle was originally attached to direct and co-write the film with John Hodge; both left due to creative differences in August 2018. Fukunaga was announced as Boyle’s replacement a month later. The majority of the cast had signed on by April 2019. Principal photography lasted from April to October 2019.
The film is scheduled for theatrical release on 2 April 2020 in the United Kingdom and on 8 April 2020 in the United States.
