Daniel Craig looks like he could be the older brother of Alfred E. Neuman (Mad Magazine). I haven't been able to watch a bond movie since without picking it apart. Mad Magazine has actually done several parodies of Bond films.

Daniel Craig plans to walk away from the James Bond franchise completely after the release of his fifth and final turn as 007.
The British actor, 51, has confirmed reports suggesting next year’s (20) No Time To Die will be his last outing as the suave superspy, admitting he’s ready to move on from the role he’s played since 2006’s Casino Royale.
In an interview with German website Express, he explained, “In the future, someone else has to do it.”
He was also asked about the possibility of returning to Bond to work behind the camera, but Craig – who has yet to direct a project of his own – made it clear he won’t be pursuing that gig because it’s too time-consuming.

“For God’s sake, no,” he replied. “I want to come home, eat something and then go to bed.

“If you’re a director, then at night you’re still with the producers, screenwriters, (and more) on the phone. And then after two hours of sleep, you have to go back up to the set. No thanks.”
Craig wrapped filming on his final Bond movie last month.
No Time To Die, directed by Cary Fukunaga, also features the return of Lea Seydoux, Jeffrey Wright, Rory Kinnear, Naomie Harris, Ben Whishaw, and Ralph Fiennes, while Oscar winner Rami Malek plays the new film’s villain.
It is due to open in theatres in April.

American teen pop sensation Billie Eilish said on Tuesday she was honored to have been chosen to write and record the theme song from the upcoming James Bond film “No Time to Die.”
Eilish, 18, who wrote the song with her brother Finneas O’Connell, will be the youngest artist in history to take on the task, following in the footsteps of musicians like Adele, Madonna, and Paul McCartney, producers said in a posting on the official @007 Twitter account.
“No Time to Die,” the 25th film in the James Bond series, arrives in movie theaters in April with Daniel Craig resuming his role as the British secret agent for a fifth and final time.

Alternative pop star Eilish had a break out year in 2019, with hits like “Bad Guy” and “All the Good Girls Go to Hell,” and is nominated for six Grammy Awards later this month, including the top prizes: album of the year and best new artist.
“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 honour. James Bond is the coolest film franchise ever to exist. I’m still in shock,” Eilish said in a statement.

Eilish wrote and recorded most of her debut studio album “When We Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?” with her brother Finneas, 22, in the small bedroom of their Los Angeles area home.
“Writing the theme song for a Bond film is something we’ve been dreaming about doing our entire lives,” Finneas said in a statement.
Adele’s theme song for 2012 Bond movie “Skyfall” won an Oscar, a Grammy and a Golden Globe award, while British singer Sam Smith’s song for “Spectre” took home the best original song Oscar in 2016.

Billie Eilish releases theme to forthcoming James Bond film 'No Time to Die'

Billie Eilish confirmed to perform James Bond theme for new movie

LOS ANGELES — American teen pop sensation Billie Eilish, fresh off her big Grammy Awards victory and an Oscar night performance, has released her much-anticipated official theme song to the forthcoming James Bond film “No Time to Die.”
The four-minute ballad, a haunting song of betrayal and despair co-written by Eilish and her older brother, Finneas, and performed to an orchestral arrangement, was posted on Thursday to YouTube and various music streaming sites.
The recording, itself titled “No Time to Die,” was produced by Finneas with a musical arrangement by Hans Zimmer and Matt Dunkley. The track, released by Eilish’s Interscope Records/Darkroom label, includes veteran British session musician Johnny Marr on guitar.
Eilish, 18, becomes the youngest artist ever to write and record a James Bond theme song, following in the footsteps of such stars as Adele, Madonna and Paul McCartney.
The song’s foreboding lyrics more than suggest a romance that meets with a decidedly unhappy ending, as Eilish sings in a chorus:
“Fool me once, fool me twice/Are you death or paradise?
“Now you’ll never see me cry/There’s just no time to die.”
The movie “No Time to Die,” the 25th title in the James Bond motion picture franchise, is due to arrive in theaters in April, with Daniel Craig resuming his title role as the British secret agent for a fifth and final time.
Eilish is slated to perform the theme song live for the first time at the Brit Awards in London Feb. 18, ahead of the March 9 launch of her North American arena tour, Interscope said in a statement.
She had widely been expected to debut the Bond single at the Academy Awards show on Sunday, but she sang the Beatles’ “Yesterday” during the telecast’s in memoriam segment instead.
Two weeks earlier Eilish swept the Grammys by taking the four top prizes – best album, best record, song of the year and best new artist – becoming only the second musician to win all four categories on the same night.
Eilish wrote and recorded most of her debut studio album – “When We Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?” – with her brother, Finneas, 22, in the small bedroom of their Los Angeles-area home.
The album, including such hits as “When the Party’s Over,” “Everything I Wanted” and “Bad Guy,” ranked as the No. 1 album of 2019.
