No Time to Die: Jeffrey Wright and Billy Magnussen on the New James Bond Film

With director Cary Joji Fukunaga’s No Time to Die now playing around the world, I recently got to speak with Jeffrey Wright and Billy Magnussen about making the latest James Bond movie. During the interview, they talked about what people would be surprised to learn about the making of a 007 film, when Wright found out he’d be back as CIA agent Felix Leiter, if Magnussen was nervous the night before his first day of filming, filming in Jamaica, and more. Written by Fukunaga alongside Neal Purvis, Robert Wade, and Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Daniel Craig’s final Bond movie picks up with James Bond having left active service. Of course, his peace is short-lived when Felix Leiter (Wright), an old friend from the CIA, turns up asking for help, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain (Rami Malek) armed with dangerous new technology. No Time to Die sees the return of Ralph Fiennes (M), Ben Whishaw (Q), Naomie Harris (Miss Moneypenny), Léa Seydoux (Madeleine Swann), Christoph Waltz (Blofeld) and Rory Kinnear
