Reuniting with M (Fiennes), Q (Whishaw), Tanner (Kinnear) and Moneypenny (Harris), and teaming with new 00 agent Nomi (Lynch), Bond leads a mission which leads him to dangerous villain Safin (Malek), who has mysterious ties to Bond’s former flame Madeleine Swann (Seydoux), and a deadly plan that will kill millions of people around the world…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

At long last, after endless delays caused by the pandemic, Daniel Craig’s fifth and final outing as James Bond arrives to deliver all the action and suspense we want out of a 007 movie – and judging by the hype-inspiring footage, it’s been worth the wait.
