Daniel Craig Gets Royal Sendoff (Photos)

“No Time To Die,” the fifth and final James Bond film starring Daniel Craig as the iconic spy, enjoyed a star-studded premiere at the Royal Albert Hall in London on Tuesday. The highly-anticipated theatrical release – which was pushed back numerous times due to COVID-19 restrictions – drew Hollywood and British royalty to the red carpet.

Inside the reception, the Duchess of Cambridge mingles with the cast and crew, including singer Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas O’Connell. The songwriting duo penned the film’s theme song, also titled “No Time To Die,” which was released in February 2020. “No Time To Die” picked up a Grammy in 2020 for Best Song Written for Visual Media, making it the first song from an unreleased film to earn the prestigious award.

Of course, this isn’t the first time Daniel Craig hung out with a member of the royal family. He and “Queen Elizabeth” jumped out of a helicopter for the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics.
