Only when Lashana Lynch was in the midst of stunt training did she finally learn just who she would be playing in the James Bond film “No Time to Die.”.

The outgoing James Bond actor says it is "an absolute honour to be walked all over in Hollywood".

Speculation has swirled that actors like Tom Hardy, Idris Elba and Henry Cavill would take over the iconic role after Daniel Craig's final flick "No Time to Die."

Fifteen years and five films later, Daniel Craig’s tenure as 007 is coming to a close.

Fresh off his turn as James Bond, Daniel Craig has his next project lined up and its also got plenty of blood being spilled.

The Prince of Wales, the Duchess of Cornwall and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have arrived at the world premiere of the new Bond film No Time To Die, in a rare joint royal engagement on the red carpet.

In the 1965 movie "Thunderball," starring Connery, Bond forces himself on a nurse who rejects his advances.

The film business is inherently full of starts and stops, but few have experienced the phrase “hurry up and wait” quite like “No Time to Die” director Cary Fukunaga.

"Skyfall" co-writer John Logan said he's concerned about what Amazon's oversight could do to the artistic integrity of "James Bond."

The release of the James Bond film “No Time To Die” has been delayed again, this time to 2021, because of the effects of COVID-19 on the theatrical business. “No Time To Die” was originally supposed to open in April 2020 but was pushed back to Nov. 12 in the U.K. and Nov. 20 in the U.S. The Walt Disney Co. last week delayed the planned 2020 releases of a handful of major movies until 2021. They include Marvel’s “Black Widow” and Steven Spielberg’s “West Side Story.” Universal delayed “Candyman” to next year. Some major releases are still planned for 2020.
