The new “James Bond” film “No Time to Die” should be in the cinemas in April 2020.
According to rumors, a Netflix premiere is also conceivable.
The current
corona situation
is still affecting cinemas in this country.
Although most movie theaters have reopened for a long time, the number of viewers is still far from as high as before the pandemic due to the reduced number of seats.
In addition, many production houses postpone the theatrical releases of large blockbusters.
In other cases, films go straight to streaming services, such as the Disney drama “Mulan”, which started on Disney + *.
How the premiere of the new
"James Bond" film "No Time to Die" will go
is still in the stars.
The action cracker was originally supposed to start in April 2020.
Due to the corona situation, the start of the cinema was postponed to November 2020 and then to
April 2021
.
It is unclear whether this date will remain.
According to rumors, there were also talks with streaming services that are supposed to show interest in the new bond.
New "James Bond" movie on Netflix?
Several streaming services should be interested
According to insider information from business magazine Bloomberg, the said talks should
have taken place
between the production company
MGM
and those responsible for Netflix and
Apple
.
If it comes to a streaming premiere, the insiders assume that the film could
gross hundreds of millions of dollars
.
Such a high revenue is particularly important because, according to Variety, MGM has already
lost
$ 30 to 50 million
due to the delays.
It remains to be seen whether a streaming premiere will be realized.
MGM is
currently
sticking
to its plans to bring the new Bond to the cinema.
The blockbuster is particularly important for cinema operators in view of the current corona situation, as they depend on strong films that attract a large audience.

"James Bond" on Netflix or Apple TV +?
MGM comments on rumors
Bloomberg has already followed up with
MGM
, who kept a low profile on possible discussions.
However, the production company pointed out that the film
"is not for sale"
.
Instead, they want to enable moviegoers
to experience
“no time to die”
on the big screen, explains a company spokesman.
Netflix
and
Apple
declined to make a statement to Bloomberg about a possible streaming premiere.
So far, there seem to be more arguments in favor of a cinema start.
Netflix and Apple TV + users shouldn't expect to find
“No Time to Die”
on either platform in the near future.
