25th James Bond release date pushed back again

The news was shared by the James Bond Franchise official Twitter account which states: “The release date for Bond 25 has changed.”

Producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli also confirmed the new release date, which they “are absolutely thrilled” with.

“We are absolutely thrilled to be releasing Bond 25 on 8 April 2020,” say the producers.

It’s been a difficult start to the franchise’s 25th output, and it’s not the first time the release date has been pushed back. Director Danny Boyle left the project over creative differences last year, which meant the slated November 2019 release date was set to be delayed.

When the film’s new director, Cary Joji Fukunaga, took over, it was announced the new Bond film would begin filming at Pinewood studios this March before being released to the world on 14th February 2020. But the date has now been pushed back two months.

Daniel Craig, who has starred in the last four Bond films, is set to star once again in the next release. However, it’s currently unknown as to whether he’ll carry on as 007 following Bond 25.
