Among other cast members who return from recent films in the franchise are Ben Whishaw as Q, Jeffrey Wright as Felix Leiter, Christoph Waltz as Blofeld, Ralph Fiennes as M, and Naomie Harris as M's secretary Moneypenny.

Ana de Armas and Lashana Lynch are new additions to the Bond family in "No Time To Die".

The film was slated for an April 2020 release, but has been pushed back owing to the ongoing Covid pandemic that has forced the closure of cinema theatres all over the world. As of now, the film is scheduled for a November release.
