With a guest list made up of Oscar winners and British royalty, the James Bond film "No Time To Die" has finally held its delayed world premiere in London in the cinema's most high profile red carpet since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Cinema operators hope the hotly anticipated movie will help bring audiences back to pre-pandemic levels.
"No Time To Die", the 25th Bond movie, has been delayed three times since its original April 2020 slot as movie theaters around the world were forced to shut their doors as well as impose audience number restrictions due to the pandemic.
The Universal Pictures and MGM film, part of one of Hollywood's biggest franchises, marks Craig's fifth and final outing as the British secret agent, wrapping up a 15-year tenure that began with 2006's "Casino Royale".
Costing an estimated $200 million to produce, "No Time To Die" sees Bond come out of retirement in Jamaica to help track down a new villain.
