007 actor Daniel Craig at a photo call earlier this year. Leo Hudson

The 25th James Bond movie title has finally been revealed

The title was announced earlier today.

THE 25TH JAMES Bond movie title has been revealed as No Time To Die.

The announcement was made earlier today and the film is set to be released in Ireland on 3 April 2020.

Daniel Craig will continue his role as 007 for the fifth time and the film will also feature Rami Malek, Léa Seydoux and Ralph Fiennes.

In the movie, Bond has left active service and is enjoying a more relaxed life in Jamaica. However, this peace is short-lived after his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA shows up and asks for his help with a mission that becomes more treacherous than expected.

Bond is led onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with a dangerous new technology. 

The film is directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga who also directed Beasts of No Nation and True Detective. 

Craig’s four previous Bond films have grossed more than $3.1 (€2.8) billion combined in the worldwide box office. 

The film had been referred to as Bond 25 before its title was announced earlier today. It is currently in production and will be released globally from 3 April 2020. 

There were some setbacks during production. An explosion during filming at Pinewood Studios in June injured a crew member of the production and damaged the sound stage.

Craig required minor ankle surgery in May after hurting his foot while performing a stunt in Jamaica.

    @Charles McDuck:

    You haven’t read any of the leaks then

    Read no further if you don’t want spoilers.

    The 007 number is given to a woman for a portion of the film when bond goes missing & is replaced.

    The next one is set post brexit. Bond can only travel unhindered at home so is set in exotic locations such as Sunderland and Newcastle and he has to make do with killing foreign looking Scots and riding buck tooth lasses called Mandy he picks up in Wetherspoons

    Gotta say I love the title. Reminiscent of the older film titles like From Russia With Love and On Her Majesty’s Secret Service it actually sounds like the title Fleming would have given a bond novel and doesn’t give away a plot element in the title. It just sounds so Bond
