James Bond fans have faced a lengthy wait for No Time To Die, and it seems we’ll also face a lengthy time in the cinema when the long-delayed film opens at the end of the month.
As revealed by IndieWire, Daniel Craig’s fifth and final outing as 007 is said to run for 163 minutes, making it the longest film in the Bond franchise to date. To put that into some context, if you felt that Spectre was long, No Time To Die runs a full quarter of an hour longer…
The film, originally slated to open way back in November 2019, is now just a few weeks out from its UK release, and to mark the occasion a new featurette has arrived online entitled ‘New Agents’, which showcases Ana de Armas’ Paloma and Lashana Lynch’s Nomi; check it out here…

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 armed with dangerous new technology.
No Time To Die stars Daniel Craig (James Bond), Ralph Fiennes (M), Naomie Harris (Moneypenny), Rory Kinnear (Tanner), Léa Seydoux (Madeleine Swann), Ben Whishaw (Q), Jeffrey Wright (Felix Leiter) and Christoph Waltz (Blofeld), while new additions include Rami Malek (Bohemian Rhapsody), Ana de Armas (Blade Runner 2049), Lashana Lynch (Captain Marvel), Billy Magnussen (Velvet Buzzsaw), Dali Benssalah (A Faithful Man) and David Dencik (Top of the Lake).
No Time to Die hits UK cinemas on September 30th, and US theaters on October 8th.
