Billie Eilish Drops Music Video for ‘No Time to Die’

Back in February, Billie Eilish dropped “No Time to Die,” the theme song from the James Bond film of the same name. However, within a couple of weeks the Daniel Craig-starring film’s release was delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

With the film’s release now scheduled for November, Eilish has dropped the song’s video, which has presumably been completed for several months.

The Daniel Kleinman-directed clip

taken from the film — watch it below.

The song
 was produced by Eilish’s brother, Finneas,
 along with 
Stephen 
Lipson and orchestral arrangements by 
Hans Zimmer 
and 
Matt Dunkley, 
and guitar 
from 
Smiths cofounder Johnny Marr.

Eilish, who at 18 
is the youngest artist to
 write and record a
 James Bond
 theme song, said, “It feels crazy to be a part of this in every way. To be able to score the
theme song to a film that is part of such a
legendary series is a huge honor.”

Finneas added, “Writing the theme song for a Bond film is something we’ve been
dreaming about doing our entire lives. There is no more iconic pairing of music and
cinema than the likes of ‘Goldfinger’ and ‘Live and Let Die.’ We feel so so lucky to play a
small
role in such a legendary franchise, long live 007.”

Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, the film’s producers, said, “Billie and Finneas have written an incredibly powerful and moving song for ’No Time To Die, which has been impeccably crafted to work within the emotional story of the film.”

The film’s director, Cary Joji Fukunaga added, “There are chosen few who record a 
Bond theme. I am a huge fan of Billie and Finneas.Their creative integrity and talent are second to none.”
