Thanks to the coronavirus pandemic, James Bond’s 25th appearance on the big screen has been pushed back several times, with the latest release date now set for April 2, 2021.
Reportedly the studio is getting itchy and No Time to Die could, instead, make its debut on one of the major streaming services.
According to film critic and screenwriter Drew McWeeny, Apple is working hard behind the scenes to secure the movie rights for its Apple TV+ platform, with Netflix also a frontrunner.
