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.
MGM, Universal and Bond producers, Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, said on Twitter
the 25th instalment in the franchise will now open globally on April 2, 2021.
No Time To Die was originally supposed to open in April 2020 but was pushed back to November 12 in the UK and November 20 in the US. It was one of the first Hollywood films to abandon its release before cinemas in the US shut down in mid-March because of the coronavirus pandemic. The film from director Cary Joji Fukunaga stars Daniel Craig as 007, Rami Malek, Lashana Lynch and Ana de Armas.
Other major studios have made similar decisions over the past few weeks.
