James Bond … is still planning to return in 2020. In a wild twist of fate, the highly anticipated and much-delayed No Time to Die may actually be one of the few remaining blockbusters to see the light in this godforsaken year. Today, MGM recharged the hype machine with an explosive new trailer that promises 007 will be back by November.
Now billed as “the mission that changes everything”, the fifth and final outing for Daniel Craig appears to be his diciest yet. In the trailer below, we see even more glimpses of his adventure, which includes the kind of literal high-wire stunts that may just be enough to get this bloody writer back into theaters again. Just maybe.
We also get our first real look at Oscar winner Rami Malek as main villain Safin. His face is certainly a far cry away from the chiseled looks of Freddie Mercury, and he’s looking as fiendish as ever here. Also getting some screentime here are Ana De Armas as Paloma and Lashana Lynch as Nomi, who should help shoulder some of the action from Craig.
