It may be Daniel Craig’s final outing but is No Time To Die the last Bond film for now, or ever? Is there a No Time To Die post-credits scene that explains or reveals the future of the James Bond 007 series? Could Daniel Craig’s James Bond return or is this version of Bond completely done? When will the next Bond film come out, if it happens, or is No Time To Die the last Bond movie after all?
Spoilers for No Time To Die follow!
No Time To Die post-credits scene explained
There is no actual post-credits scene in No Time To Die but instead, the end credits finishes with the classic message “James Bond will return.” This statement has been in every single James Bond movie since the very first film, Dr. No in 1962, although this is the first time it has been used following a shocking ending where James Bond unambiguously dies.
Is No Time To Die the last Bond film ever?
The message “James Bond will return” is proof that the producers are not done with James Bond and No Time To Die is not the last Bond movie. Daniel Craig will not be returning to the role of Bond, so it is likely that the Bond franchise will be rebooted again with a new actor in the role of 007 when it comes back. There were four years between Pierce Brosnan’s last Bond movie Die Another Day (2002) and the reboot with Daniel Craig, Casino Royale (2006), and six years between Spectre (2015) and No Time To Die (2021) — so don’t expect another James Bond movie until at least 2025.
Regarding No Time To Die, is Rami Malek’s villain Safin really classic character Dr. No? For more on James Bond, there’s a leak of a remastered version of GoldenEye out there, and the creators of Hitman are working on a new Bond game too, which could end up releasing alongside the next movie.
