A gazing Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen) yearns for their love.
“Why can’t I have that?”
“Your gun is digging in to my hip.”
He cries…in blood.
Worst. Valentine’s Day. Ever.
The official 007 Twitter account has just posted six awesome character posters in anticipation of tomorrow’s trailer to No Time To Die and they are AWESOME! They feature Daniel Craig as James Bond, Léa Seydoux as Madeleine Swann, Rami Malek as Safin, Lashana Lynch as Nomi, Ben Whishaw as Q and Ana de Armas as Paloma.
Some quick, random thoughts about them:
- Bond is a badass in gloves and tactical holster on his thigh – almost looks like an assassin. Is Bond required to kill Safin?
- Swann looks great but overall muted…does she meet her maker in the beginning part of the movie?
- Safin is devious and kind of hiding his hands (akthough you *can* definitely see skin if you look close enough) Are they or will they be metallic? Safin aka Dr. No?
- Nomi is a badass…looking left to Safin’s character in the Tweet…does she first try to take him down and Bond helps her finish the job?
- Whishaw’s Q is a treasure…we are spoiled to have someone take up the Q helm worthy of Desmond Llewelyn.
- Paloma is a lowkey (not anymore) badass apparently…between the dual klobb in the teaser to the teaser trailer and this pic, she will likely be a force to be reckoned with.
Daniel Craig as James Bond in No Time To Die (2020)

All signs point to a No Time To Die dud.
I hope I’m wrong. Prove me wrong. Please. From a fan’s perspective, the 25th James Bond movie No Time To Die (2020) – Daniel Craig’s fifth and his last outing as 007 – was plagued from pre-production to its current status as a hopeful blockbuster and worthy entry into the James Bond canon.
Production Issues
Five long years since the last movie. A change in director. A change in release date. A broken ankle for Daniel Craig. Could anything else go wrong? Well, yes, of course it could. And sure, an on-set injury can happen, but I can also see it as a bad omen. The writing is on the wall, so to speak. I guess at least frogs haven’t rained down on-set. They continue to film and haven’t given up, so that’s a good thing.
It’s been a harrowing 5 years of waiting for James Bond fans too, Daniel.
