'No Time to Die': Lashana Lynch gets the license to kill in her latest look as agent 007 in upcoming Bond movie
'No Time to Die' has been making headlines almost every day as there are enough theories and speculations building about the 007 blockbuster ahead of its release this April.
Fandango uploaded an exclusive image featuring Lashana Lynch from the film on its Twitter account sending fans in a tizzy.
The 'Captain Marvel' star has been a topic of discussion ever since her role was announced. From what we have seen from interviews and the official trailer, Lynch will most definitely be a central character and while she is a new MI6 agent with the 007 status, she won't be replacing Daniel Craig's James Bond traditionally.
A Daily Mail report said 'No Time to Die' would see Lynch in a crucial role. Talking to the site, a source revealed major information on the character. "There is a pivotal scene at the start of the film where M says 'Come in 007', and in walks Lashana who is black, beautiful and a woman."
The source said, "It's a popcorn-dropping moment. Bond is still Bond but he's been replaced as 007 by this stunning woman."
"Bond, of course, is sexually attracted to the new female 007 and tries his usual seduction tricks, but is baffled when they don't work on a brilliant, young black woman who basically rolls her eyes at him and has no interest in jumping into his bed." the source adds. "Well, certainly not at the beginning."
"Lashana is absolutely brilliant and Phoebe's script is as sharp and funny as you would expect. This Bond pays tribute to some of the earlier films with a lot of humor," the source continued.
"This is a Bond for the modern era who will appeal to a younger generation while sticking true to what we all expect in a Bond film. There are spectacular chase sequences and fights, and Bond is still Bond but he's having to learn to deal with the world of #MeToo."
'No Time to Die' is expected to debut on April 10, 2020.
