Brace for a Thrilling Cinematic Experience with Daniel Craig’s James Bond in ‘No Time to Die’

Catch the latest Bond film in theaters this December 15!

In the latest installment of the worldā€™s most beloved film franchise and agent James Bond, Daniel Craig suits up one last time as 007 in No Time To Die that will open in Philippine cinemas on December 15.     

In No Time To Die, Bond has left active service and is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica. His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help. The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far more treacherous than expected, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain known as Safin armed with dangerous new technology.

In this all-new mission, directed by Cary Fukunaga, the film brings together returning cast from previous Bond films – iconic, award-winning and compleat actors with Daniel Craig, poised to bring the audience to an unforgettable ride going back to the cinemas.

Returning cast includes LĆ©a Seydoux, Naomie Harris, Ben Whishaw, Ralph Fiennes, Rory Kinnear, Christoph Waltz and Jeffrey Wright.

LĆ©a Seydoux as Madeleine Swann, is an intelligent and highly-capable psychologist who stands as the most significant other in Bondā€™s life.  ā€œMadeleine is happy sheā€™s with Bond, and we think that they are united for the best,ā€ she says. ā€œBut weā€™ll find out that they have problems to solve, and I think that in No Time To Die we learn more about their intimacy, in a way.ā€

Another significant woman in Bondā€™s life is Naomie Harrisā€™s Moneypenny. She is now settled in her position as Mā€™s right-hand woman, though her loyalty to Bond remains untarnished. ā€œI think itā€™s absolutely brilliant that the women in this movie play such a central role,ā€ Harris affirms. ā€œThey are so important to driving the story forward. They are bad-ass. They are formidable, strong and confident women. Throughout this film you know Bond would not have survived without the help of the various women that helped him along the way.ā€

One of Bondā€™s longtime allies and another key M16 member is Q played by Ben Whishaw.  With Q torn between his loyalty to MI6 and his friendship with, and admiration for Bond. ā€œQā€™s always caught between Bond, and what heā€™s told to do by M,ā€ says Whishaw. ā€œAlways his loyalty is with Bond; thereā€™s a real affection there, which I think comes out in this film quite a lot.ā€

Along with Harris and Whishaw, Ralph Fiennes also returns, reprising the role of M. Fiennes says that he was more than impressed with the story ideas on which Fukunaga wanted to concentrate.  ā€œWhen Cary got on the phone with me and told me the story, I must say I thought it was very strong,ā€ says Fiennes, who stars in his third consecutive Bond film.

Lea Seydoux in NO TIME TO DIE

Another long-serving MI6 employee who reappears in No Time To Die is Tanner, played by Rory Kinnear.  ā€œThere is that sense of tying up loose ends and there is a sense of family in many waysā€” that family of MI6, for one. The story looks at what loyalty requires of you, what it can take from you, and what it can do to your own personal life as well as your working life.ā€

Also returning is the heroā€™s most famous nemesis Blofeld, who debuted on screen in 1963ā€™s From Russia With Love, and whose first overt connection to the Daniel Craigā€™s films began in Spectre, where he provided important insights into Bondā€™s upbringing and the pain he has suffered from Casino Royale onwards. Christoph Waltz comes back for a second outing after the characterā€™s incarceration at the end of the last movie.

Actor Jeffrey Wright returns as Leiter once again in No Time To Die. ā€œWith Felix and James there is a sense of fraternal kinship,ā€ says Wright. ā€œThey are almost like brothers in a very select circle. The story looks at this love for one another and respect for one another. Also, I think, thereā€™s a love for the game.ā€  

From Universal Pictures International (Ph), No Time to Die opens December 15 in theaters nationwide (check local listings of cinemas).
