No Time to Die (12A)

Retirement doesn’t suit James Bond. When an old friend turns up to his Jamaican retreat in need of help, the spy is taken on a mission far more treacherous than even he could have expected. Léa Seydoux, Daniel Craig, Ralph Fiennes and Rami Malek star in the 25th film in the Bond series.

Having left active service, James Bond (Daniel Craig) spends his retirement feeling the weight of separation from Madeleine (Léa Seydoux). His solitude is fleeting, though, when Felix Leiter (Jeffrey Wright), an old friend from the CIA, shows up unexpectedly.

Agreeing to help Felix Bond is thrust back into action. Reunited with M (Ralph Fiennes), Q (Ben Whishaw) and Moneypenny (Naomie Harris), Bond is also introduced to a new Double-O (Lashana Lynch) at MI6.

Joined by Paloma (Ana de Armas), Bond is led onto the trail of a mysterious, masked villain armed with dangerous technology and known only as Safin (Rami Malek). But life back in the field also forces him to confront an old foe (Christoph Waltz) who threatens to reveal a sinister secret about the buried past of Madeleine.

In his reportedly final outing as the debonair secret agent, Daniel Craig (Logan Lucky, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) stars in the 25th instalment in the action-packed Bond series, directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga (Maniac) with Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Killing Eve) among the writers.

Academy Award winner Rami Malek (Bohemian Rhapsody, Mr. Robot, Papillon) and Ana de Armas (Knives Out, The Informer, Blade Runner 2049) also star while Academy Award nominee Ralph Fiennes (Official Secrets, Schindler’s List, the Harry Potter series), Academy Award nominee Naomie Harris (Black and Blue, Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle, Moonlight), Emmy winner Jeffrey Wright (The Goldfinch, Westworld, The Laundromat) and Léa Seydoux (It’s Only the End of the World, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Blue is the Warmest Colour) all reprise their roles.
