The world premiere of the James Bond film “No Time To Die” will be on September 28 at the Royal Albert Hall in London, it has been confirmed.
Daniel Craig’s final outing as 007 has been repeatedly delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
A message on the film’s official Twitter account said Craig will be joined by producers Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli and director Cary Joji Fukunaga on the red carpet.
The premiere will come two days before the film is released in cinemas on September 30.
A number of Bond premieres have taken place at the famous London venue, including 2015’s “Spectre” where the duke and duchess of Cambridge and duke of Sussex were in attendance.
“No Time To Die” was the first major film to fall victim to the pandemic when its April 2020 release was pushed to November as the virus swept the globe. It was subsequently delayed a number of times while cinemas around the world remained shuttered.
“No Time To Die” also stars Lea Seydoux, Rami Malek, Lashana Lynchand Ana De Armas and is directed by Fukunaga, with a script co-written by “Fleabag” creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
“No Time To Die” finds Bond having left active service and enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica when his old friend Felix Leiter, played byJeffrey Wright, from the CIA turns up asking for help.
Danny Boyle was originally hired to direct but stepped away from the project due to “creative differences.” — PA Media/dpa
