Which is that, at this moment, audiences don’t want real life. I think James Bond’s weak box office in the wake of recent over-performers Shang-Chi and Venom is telling the market something. Writers: Neal Purvis & Robert Wade, Cary Fukunaga, Phoebe Waller-Bridge (characters by Ian Fleming) It’s a sour note on the franchise’s best run ever. It turns out there was way too much time to die. While films like Venom and Shang-Chi have nearly reached 100 million in their opening weekends, No Time To Die cleared only 56 million. They finally took their shot over the weekend and it didn’t go well. And, since then, they’ve been notably gun-shy about when to open it. The movie had rolled out practically its entire promotion when it was suddenly delayed. Premise: James Bond is pulled out of retirement to hunt down the owners of a dangerous new virus that can target its victims through their specific DNA profile.Ībout: There probably isn’t a movie that has been more hurt by the pandemic than James Bond’s latest jaunt. Has a Daniel Craig James Bond film finally won me over?
