THE RELEASE DATE for James Bond film No Time To Die has been postponed amid fears around Covid-19.
The film was due to be released in April, but Bond producers Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli today said that “after careful consideration and thorough evaluation of the global theatrical marketplace” it will now be released in November.
It’s expected to be released in Irish and UK cinemas on 12 November, and in the US on 25 November.
The news was announced via the film’s official Twitter account.
The world premiere for No Time To Die was scheduled to take place on 31 March at the Royal Albert Hall in London.
The 25th film in the franchise will mark Daniel Craig’s fifth and final time as the spy.
The film also stars Lea Seydoux, Rami Malek, Lashana Lynch and Ana De Armas.
Directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga, the film also saw Fleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge drafted in to improve its script.
No Time To Die finds Bond after he has left active service and is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica when his old friend Felix Leiter, played by Jeffrey Wright, from the CIA turns up asking for help.

From Wuhan With Love
@Arthur Pewty: your delusional absolute no right to say that joke man shush
@Arthur Pewty: that was actually very funny
@Richard Parker: you alright lad?
@Arthur Pewty: Don’t mess with the Wuhan…
@ceartattack: how dare you fool this is a shameful act and must be dealt with accordingly smh
An aptly named movie
@Jurga Moylan: Jaime Moylan has a problem with you if you want to take it up with then refrain from these absurd comments, joke man
@Richard Parker:
I’ve no idea what you’re trying to say but I reckon it’s easier to agree with you on this.
@Jurga Moylan: so submissive it’s a joke
Will it still be on the dodgy box on time?
I’m shaken, not stirred
No time to Die indeed..
7 month delay because the final edit is probably horrible. A great excuse.
@Ed: nah it’s because they spent $250 million on the movie so without the Chinese box office they’d most likely be screwed on making much of a profit on it. It’s a financial decision that frustrates me as a fan but I begrudgingly understand as someone who pays attention and understands the industry to a degree
@Jake Kelly: I’ll stick to my theory. I have great knowledge in all things cinema.
Gotta get that cold Hard Chinese dollar
@Jake Kelly: what’s your deal
Terrible haven’t to wait another 8 months. The Corona virus wouldn’t bother Jimmy Bond. He wouldn’t call in sick with a cold. Now would he
Ahhh feck. Booked the Stella in Rathmines, hadn’t been there yet. Totalls disappointed. Ce la vie. This is a rolling scenario. Don’t jump on the slamming badwagon. Thats easy to do at this stage while we are all mostly fine. Won’t be the case if we end up dealing with it from a personal place and the situation takes over any opinion right now.
Does that mean they’ll keep playing that stupid Heineken add until November then.
@Conor Noonan: Well at least ….they were lucky that they weren’t in fact doing a joint marketing promotion with Corona beer ..
James Bond?!
Ehh, no Yames Bond
So there is time to die, then?
Booooooo!! I was looking forward to seeing it
You can, in November?
have your say
